Perfectly positioned for exploring Purbeck’s countryside and coast, this pretty bungalow is just 2.5 miles from Swanage. Pet-friendly, it offers four bedrooms – two on the ground floor – plus fabulous walks from the doorstep.

A fine choice for a multi-generational get-together, this lovely village residence features a lounge/diner that’s sure to be a hive of social activity. Triple-aspect windows allow natural light to flood in; at one end there’s a choice of sofas arranged before a Smart TV, while at the other the dining suite has elbow room for eight to eat in comfort. Close by, the kitchen has all the must-haves and is complemented by a utility and storage area. Two bedrooms on the ground floor offer a choice between a king-size and twins – the twins are zip-and-link and convert to a super-king-size bed on request. On the first floor, both bedrooms have lovely views; choose between a king-size with its own en-suite shower room, and a twin room with two small singles ideal for children. The family bathroom features both a bath and a shower cubicle. Your living space extends into a garden, with a lawned area and a patio with furniture for al fresco dining. Off-road parking for two cars is also available.

Enjoy strolls around Langton Matravers, where you’ll find a friendly pub which doubles as the local shop, and a small petting farm. Excellent walking trails offer adventures further afield – follow The Priest’s Way and less than a mile to the south, Dancing Ledge is a spectacular beauty spot; pick up the South West Coast Path here for more dramatic scenery. A regular bus service stops at the village on its journey between Swanage (2.5 miles) and Poole (18 miles). Less than 4 miles north, the ruins of Corfe Castle guard the main route through the Purbeck Hills.

I found the door into the sitting room was cramped against the furniture. So it would be good if that could be rearranged. Otherwise it was lovely.

Excellent location with lots of places to visit nearby. Ideal for our multi generation family holiday as it was very spacious and had comfortable furniture and beds. Kitchen very well equipped with plenty of crockery and a dishwasher. Nice enclosed garden for the children and off street parking.

Wight View was a perfect holiday house for us. Our 3-generation party consisted of 6 adults, a 3 year old and 1 year old. Beds comfortable, and no adult couples ended up in twin beds. Cot (and high chair & stair gate) provided for baby. Large dining table with adequate seating for all, ditto garden table. Lounge space has comfortable seating for alRead morel. Plenty of space for little ones to run/crawl around. Garden enclosed with small lawn area for playing felt safe. Washing mashing and washing line/airer put to use! Would definitely recommend this property. If we had another family holiday (with kids & grandkids) I would book Wight View again. Hide

A lovely cosy and comfortable property in a great location for walks on your doorstep to the coast with a little convenience shop on campsite behind. We had a lovely long family weekend and quality time together. The lounge was perfect to sit all 6 of us comfortably.

Overall the property was very good for six adults and two young children. Langton Matravers is has a good bus service, a great local pub provides excellent food and the Putlake farm park is great for young children (and the food there is excellent). Would stay here again.
