Seaside Cottage with panoramic sea views.
We had a lovely stay at Seaside Cottage, very tastefully decorated, kitchen perfect for what we wanted, hot tub was great, we had a chilled weekend, thank you!

Your hideaway on Weymouth harbourside!
We had a lovely stay, the location was perfect as was the flat. Very clean and comfortable with all you need for your stay and lovely dogs are welcome even though the flat had zero dog smell or dog hair ☺️. If we had to find a tiny negative it was maybe the pub next door which has live music each weekend so can be a little noisy but it would not put us off staying here again. We were also very grateful for the parking permit and most of the time we’re able to park directly opposite the flat. All in all a lovely stay! Thank you Cate!,

Beautiful Harbourside Apartment
Our second stay here and it won’t be our last ! Very spacious, extremely comfortable and sparkling clean.Everything thing works extremely well. Fab kitchen with everything you need. Comfortable furniture and easy to use TV. Enormous comfortable bed and very user friendly bathroom. Definitely not exclusively for people with access problems but for my husband in a mobility scooter it was perfect. Easy and safe parking and perfect location. Are you getting the vibes that we liked it ! We are looking forward to coming back ! 😀😀

5* Cottage on Chesil Beach Dorset Jurassic Coast
Wow, what a stunning location. It's every bit as beautiful as in the photos. We watched glorious sunsets from the terrace and enjoyed walks on the beach. I enjoyed looking around the immaculately kept gardens and could have watched the colourful koi in the pond for hours, plus the two cute horses in the field. Andrew's directions to the house are spot-on, please don't trust your satnav or you risk being taken down some very narrow lanes with grass growing in the middle and no passing places. Ask me how I know. There is no mobile reception at the house, as you would expect given the location, but the wifi is very good. Beds and bedding super comfortable.

Chesil Cove, Portland's jewel
We all thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Chesil Cove . Our third stay at Greyjoys. Comfortable, clean, everything you need is provided. An ideal spot for discovering this area. We’ll be coming back again soon.

Cosy retreat with woodfired bathtub
A beautiful and peaceful getaway. The hosts Diz and Adam have really thought of everything to make your stay here amazing and the generous hamper waiting for us meant we were well equipped so had very little else to buy. The close walking distance to Milford on Sea and the array of eateries and pub/wine bars meant there was no need to argue on who was driving! We can’t wait to return.

Stargazing Beach Hut on Mudeford Sandbank
We had a wonderful few days staying right on the beach. The hut was well equipped. The neighbours were so friendly and the beach was right in front of us. Thoughtful little touches were appreciated - a polaroid camera for retro snaps, ample tea and coffee for emergencies, and an ipad loaded with kids films for tired snuggles after a long day in and out of the sea. Communication was quick and easy. Good value for a unique spot, thank you.

Southbourne Chalet close to the clifftop
perfect location for walking with a dog, everything we needed was there, toaster, microwave, kettle, cutlery, and even bread, milk butter and jam was put out for our arrival. Highest recommendation, we will certainly return for another stay

Crescent View-Hoburne Naish Holiday Park
The caravan was absolutely spotless, it was lovely having the two decks, we had lunch on the dining table outside when the weather was so nice. We had everything we needed in the caravan, lots of kitchen bits for cooking and wifi was very good. It was ever so peaceful where our caravan was and everyone was friendly. The club house was lovely, it was so nice to be in such a dog friendly place. The amenities for children were brilliant too. We absolutely loved our stay, we are gutted there is no availability in the summer to come back, but we can see why, its just beautiful. The hosts were brilliant and very accommodating x

Luxurious holiday home at Weymouth Bay
We stayed for 3 nights. The holiday house was spacious enough to fit family of 4. Plenty of room to play for little ones. Very clean and well organised. The only improvement I could suggest would be to install slim dishwasher but it was perfect anyway. I would recommend and come back.

Relaxed “Beach Getaway" Nr. New Forest
Beautiful land convenient location that made it easy to access the local tourist spots, including the New Forest, Beaches, harbour towns and Peppa Pig World. The house was lovely, really well presented and included some thoughtful touches, such as chocolates for our kids, Prosecco for us and a lovely personalised welcome message. The park itself is ideal for younger families, with loads to do and access to the beach. Carly was super responsive when our sat nav took us to the wrong entrance and really communicative before, during and after our stay. We'd definitely considering returning next year.

East Creek + beach side + pool, dog Ringstead Bay
location was absolutely perfect for a relax and a decent walk everyday, we paddle boarded up the coast both ways and the scenery was stunning and finished most days with a swim in the pool. if you're after a close too everything place too stay this isn't the place for you but if you're looking for a break away from the world then this will tick all your boxes 🤗

Static Caravan, 3 Bedroom Sleeps 6 on Dorset Coast
We had a short but enjoyable stay in this lovely caravan! Lots of space and everything we needed. Great location on a great holiday park 🙂Thanks so much!

Pebble Lodge
A lovely lodge with everything we needed. We especially enjoyed the view. Thank you for the box of goodies too! We will be recommending to friends!

Cranbrook Lodge, Sandhills
We stayed here for just over a week with our three children -everything was clean and tidy when we arrived and it was a nice place to use as a base for going to the beach/Hengistbury Head. Lovely holiday!

Sea Shore Lodge, Mudeford
We had an amazing stay! The accommodation was perfectly located - just a few steps from the beach, with a small sea view and tucked away enough to feel peaceful and private. It made it so easy to pop back and forth throughout the day. The site itself was fantastic, with both children's and adults' pools that were not just "heated" but actually warm and inviting, such a treat! The luxury sun loungers around the pool were a lovely touch. The home was immaculate, spacious, and comfortably and would easily fit four. We honestly can’t wait to come back!

The Seaside Retreat, Large 3 bed, 2 bath property
An absolutely amazing place to stay with everything you need. It was perfect for my family with just the perfect number of beds/lay out. The house was immaculate and cleanliness is really important to me. It looked like it had recently been painted/ceilings done. A really wonderful find. A truly perfect location. Would book this again in a heart beat!

Old Harbour House
Yet another great stay at this gorgeous little home from home Airbnb. Many thanks to the amazing Graham & Linda. Whom this time were even more accommodating by helping me out above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you!

Well presented 2 bed apartment in central Swanage
Great base for the weekend. Spotlessly clean with everything ypu need. Very central to the main town making everything walkable and parking permit was perfect for leaving the car safe behind the hotel.

Stunning 2 Bed Apt - 60 second walk from the Beach
Lovely spacious apartment, everything you need. Close to the beach and other amenities. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Sam was a great host, very attentive and polite!

2 Bed Swanage apartment, seconds from beach.
The apartment has fantastic sea views from all aspects of the living space and from the spare bedroom. We could just gaze out of these huge windows all day long. Marvelous. The apartment is very tastefully furnished and decorated and has absolutely everything you could possibly need. The hosts responded almost immediately to a couple of messages that we sent. The mattress was very comfortable. It was nice and warm. We managed to get a space to park outside the Victoria although we had to wait a couple of hours to bag it! We are lucky to have stayed here and cannot recommend it more highly.

Compass Cottage - Right in the heart of Swanage
The house has everything you need and in a great location. Walk out the door and cafes, shops, beach all walkable from the house. Make sure you have the correct directions and location of the parking space (the original info we were given was wrong, thankfully I checked beforehand as after a 9 hour drive finding you are at the wrong location would not have been ideal!) The actual parking space is behind the property, in a small courtyard, if you are not competent in parking your vehicle use one of the main car parks in Swanage. Lots to see and do in the area, we would certainly like to return and would book the property again.

Cosy flat close to the beach
Amazing stay in the apartment, 2 minute walk to the sea front. Super easy check in and lovely decor. Bed was really comfy and brand new shower room with endless hot water. Great restaurants nearby, lucky to have its own parking space too. Studland bay is beautiful and Brownsea Island was stunning. We loved the apartment and Swanage too, we’ll be back. Thank you for the milk and cookies, a welcome treat.

80m to beach, cinema, games room in Weymouth
A beautiful home in the perfect location for a get together with friends - the grown ups and the kids loved the home! Catherine was brilliant with all the prep/information needed to make it such a wonderful stay.
