Located in the charming seaside town of Swanage, this homely two-bedroom cottage is perfect for a dog-friendly getaway in the picturesque Dorset National Landscape. Exposed stone walls, dainty chandelier lighting and a garden add character to this Grade II-listed property with sea views. Discover the delights of the Isle of Purbeck – like the nearby historical castles, vast sandy beaches and impressive natural spectacles, including Old Harry Rocks.
Step inside to find yourself in the cosy lounge with warm low-hanging lights, an eye-catching exposed brick fireplace with a wood burner-effect electric fire and tones of blue throughout. Continue into the bright kitchen/diner to find a fitted, wooden L-shaped kitchen unit with an exposed brick feature wall. In the centre of the space is a dinner table with seating for four. There is also a boot room and a family bathroom on the ground floor. Climb the stairs to reach two well-sized bedrooms – a double with sea views and a twin room with 3’ beds. Outside is a gated front garden with a small lawn containing furniture. At the rear of the property is an additional courtyard garden which is shared with the neighbouring property. Parking is on-street, subject to availability.
