An elegant apartment by the sea, this home in Swanage is just a few minutes' walk from the seafront. Set in an attractive Victorian building, it's a perfect retreat for a couple or a solo traveller, and with its period features and Boho styling, it's bound to appeal to the romantic in you. 

Tall ceilings, sash windows, oak floorboards and chandeliers are the order of the day here, along with all-white decor and pops of colourful modern art. There's a squashy sofa in the cosy living room, and a well-kitted-out, modern kitchen if you'll be cooking at home. But it's the bedroom we really love here, with its vintage rattan headboard and French vintage furniture.

A short stroll from Swanage Beachfront, this home is an excellent choice for family gatherings. The location is perfect for exploring on foot – pubs, eateries, shops, and seaside walks are within easy reach. Back home, you'll find five comfortable bedrooms, though some have limited headroom due to sloped ceilings. The bathrooms are also a tad snug for taller guests. That said, there's a bright first-floor living area where everyone can chill out together, as well as a ground-floor main suite with its own small patio. Two pups are also welcome to tag along – now that's coastal fun for the whole family.

Nestled in the heart of Swanage, this home has easy access to this picturesque coastal town’s sandy beaches. Have a stroll along the iconic pier and take in the panoramic views of Swanage Bay. Or relax in the enclosed rear garden on the sofa – there’s a trampoline for the kids, too. Inside, it is light and bright thanks to the bay window, and there’s a log burner to snuggle up in front of when the Dorset weather turns chilly. As well as the main bedroom, there's a bunk bed and a twin room, making it an excellent option for families.

This place is ideal for a couple or solo traveller looking to be in the heart of this charming seaside town.

Designed by award-winning architects, this stunning home is set to impress. It’s on the Isle of Purbeck within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with the Jurassic Coast and Wareham within easy reach. Modern and beautifully crafted, this charming home offers contemporary open-plan design inside and a stunning garden with terraces – there are outdoor dining areas and a play area, too. Three living spaces mean there’s plenty of space for a large group – whether you’re travelling with friends or family, this is a splendid choice of base in an unbeatable setting. 

The Wildwood Retreat

Just up the road from the Blue Flag-awarded Swanage Beach, this home gives you a great excuse to visit the Jurassic Coast. Indulge in forgotten pleasures when you hop aboard the steam train to Corfe Castle. Or, how about a day trip to Monkey World instead? With high ceilings, original coving, and a feature fireplace, this space still embraces its 1890 origins. While the second bedroom serves youngsters, this apartment makes a good option for families seeking a seaside base.

How Lovely

You'll find this 19th-century apartment in Swanage, a town famed for its Victorian charms. The size is perfect for a couple – and with a private suntrap terrace and some characterful period features inside, we’ll forgive the slightly dated interiors. Make for the sands of Swanage Beach and the pier (less than half a mile from your door) for a hefty dose of seaside nostalgia. And when thoughts turn to food, there are plenty of bustling cafes and restaurants dotted along the high street.

Wisteria Rising

Tucked away in the village of Harmans Cross, this bungalow is perfectly positioned for a mix of both a seaside and countryside escape. The rural views from your garden are a lovely welcome for when you arrive, with the built-in home bar being a close second. The steps down to the bar might be tricky for some guests, but there’s plenty of garden seating at ground level. Families and groups of friends will love all the sociable spaces here, but you can take some time alone in the snug too. When you’re ready to explore, you’ll find Durdle’s Door, Corfe Castle, and the seaside town of Swanage to be a short drive away.

This home is the perfect base for a family or group of friends looking to enjoy luxury, privacy and the beautiful coast on a Dorset holiday. Stroll through the garden, set on just under an acre of tree-lined land, where you’ll have your choice of long days spent poolside and lazy lunches prepared with ease on the barbecue. We absolutely love the dynamic bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect the dreamy garden to the dining and living rooms – enjoy the greenery with a breakfast spread and fresh air, or settle on the couch with an afternoon read as the rest of the family enjoys the pool, hot tub and lawn. The kitchen is large, complete with a marble island that makes your culinary vision easy to execute, and on chillier nights, shut the doors and turn the fireplace up as you snuggle in for movie night. Finally, end your days with a lush soak in the oval tub. The bedrooms are neutral-toned and welcoming, ideal for restful nights of sleep. And when it’s time to explore, Canford Cliffs is a thirteen-minute drive away, while you can be on the sandy beach with just a five-minute drive or eighteen-minute walk. 

Tree Tones

Stood within the grounds of a working lighthouse and surrounded by a country park and the vast sea, this cottage delivers quite a setting. Arrive at night, and the lighthouse's beam will guide you in. Although you'll be pleased to hear the fog signal is long gone –⁠ so nothing could disturb your sleep here. A home for all seasons, enjoy the summer sun on the nearby beaches or snuggle up beside the fire to witness dramatic storms in winter months. Set off the beaten track –⁠ no amenities are within walking distance, so you'll need a car. But with Swanage town centre just two miles away, the bustle is never too far away.

The Lighthouse Keepers

Stood within the grounds of a working lighthouse, the setting of this traditional cottage is postcard-perfect. While the fog signal is long gone, the beam of this lighthouse still shines bright at night – an impressive sight to see while stargazing from the shared gardens. It’s worth noting that with nothing but the deep blue sea and a country park for miles around, you’ll need a car here. Though if you fancy a change of scene, the seaside town of Swanage is just a three-mile drive away.

Situated in the family-friendly resort of Swanage along Dorset’s famous Jurassic Coast is this three-storey cottage. With its homey interiors and enclosed garden, this property is well-suited to families and groups of friends. It's just moments from the seafront, so you can expect to spend your days at the beach, enjoying the amusement arcade, eating fish and chips and watching watercolour sunsets. Keen for an adventure? Drive in either direction along the coast and you'll find even more charming villages, nature reserves, and outdoor experiences. 

Isle of Purbeck

Lift Access

Rooftop Terrace

One glance at the panoramas from this penthouse's private roof terrace and you'll see why we're smitten. From up here, you'll have a bird's-eye view stretching from the surrounding hills to Swanage Bay in the distance. It's the perfect perch for morning coffees and evening sundowners. The interiors are laid-back but comfortable, and there's plenty of space for families to wind down after a busy day. Speaking of, the beach is a five-minute stroll away, the shops and eateries in town are walkable in fifteen, and many of Dorset's other gems are within easy reach by car.

Portside Penthouse

There are sea views to enjoy from this second-floor apartment housed in a Grade II listed building. There’s no lift here, but it’s worth the climb. This home is ideal for a couple and their four-legged companions. The beach is just a short walk away so it’s perfect for seaside strolls. And there are many shops, restaurants and bars right on your doorstep (you may hear some street noise here). Or if you fancy exploring further afield, visit the Jurassic Coast or the historic village of Corfe Castle.

Uphill from the water’s edge, this home shows another side to the coastal town of Poole. It’s not all about watersports, boat trips, and beachside bars (although you can certainly still experience these delights, just two miles from the shore). A convenient three-minute walk from Parkstone train station, this apartment is located in a quieter, residential area where you’ll feel more like a local. But don’t be fooled – this is a VIP experience. Whether you’d like to arrange for the in-house chef to come over, spend the afternoon paddleboarding, or head out on a boat trip, your host will make sure your stay is memorable. As you arrive, enjoy delicious tea and biscuits, or a glass of wine, from your generous welcome hamper. While you savour nibbles in the lounge, admire the sophisticated interiors – dark blue feature walls, plush grey sofas, and a woven standing lamp are just a few elements we love. Huge windows usher in beautiful natural light in every room, with views of leafy trees outside bringing a sense of zen.

With plenty of space to spread out, this ground-floor apartment in an Edwardian home near Westbourne is a fantastic base to return to after a day at the beach. Having a private entrance and garden ensures you have all the privacy you need here, plus private parking is a real premium in this area during the summer months. Although there's room for six, we think the main bedroom is better suited to two adults and two children, while the second bedroom is ideal if you're travelling with another couple. When it's time to explore, you'll find the beautiful sandy beach of Alum Chine just 350 metres away, whilst a 15-minute walk will get you to the eclectic mix of boutiques, cafes and bars of Westbourne and its beautiful Victorian arcade.

Escape To The Sands

Where do we start with this home – both the apartment and the location are excellent. Firstly, it’s just a 50-metre stroll across West Cliff Green to the beach steps making this the perfect base for a family-friendly holiday by the sea. There are an array of restaurants and bars within walking distance whilst Bournemouth Pier and the town centre are also accessible by foot. We love the sea views from this place’s private garden and who wouldn’t want to dine or relax in the light-filled conservatory? If you’re a group of eight, then two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living space, but it’s a spacious room. What a great find this is.

Nice to haves

Just steps from Charminster High Street, this ground floor flat is brimming with Victorian character. It's a lovely red-brick townhouse, with plenty of historic charm to admire – think high ceilings and picture rails, ornamental ceiling roses, tall skirting boards and large bay windows flooding the rooms with light. Though it's on the smaller side, it's been well-designed to maximise the space – we think it's perfectly suited to a couple after a romantic escape. Read the morning paper in the plush armchair, help yourself to a selection of cereals and teas at the rustic breakfast bar or unwind after a busy day with a movie night in the cosy living room. The kitchenette is more suited to light bites than extravagant meals, so in the evenings you may want to dine out – there's an array of cafes, pubs and restaurants in Charminster to choose from. Bournemouth town centre and its sandy beaches are a twenty-five-minute walk (though we recommend driving), or venture a little further and enjoy a trip to the Jurassic Coast, famous for its fossils – you can be there in under an hour.

Madhuri

Relaxed and comfortable, this Poole home makes a fuss-free base for a Dorset adventure. It's spread over three levels, and the top-floor suite boasts views across the harbour to Brownsea Island – imagine waking up to that each morning. Downstairs, the kitchen has all you need to rustle up the catch of the day while the electric fire keeps things cosy on chilly evenings. Come summertime, the private patio is the perfect spot for dinner and drinks in the sunshine. Location-wise, Poole Quay and the docks are just a short walk away. Further afield, yet within easy reach by car, are Bournemouth and Sandbanks Beach.

If the view of the sea from this beachy Bournemouth home doesn’t grab you, then perhaps the ten-minute stroll to the beach and promenade will. It’s also a short walk from the town centre, where you’ll find seafood restaurants, shopping streets and beachside cafés galore. The entire ground floor is dedicated to open-plan living and socialising in a light and breezy fashion. Driftwood sculptures and duck-egg accents complement the otherwise pristine white design. Gather the group for breakfast in the big kitchen where bench seating offers an informal place to dine. Squashy armchairs and a huge sectional sofa provide a place for the whole family to hang out in the evening. On the lower ground floor, you’ll find a second, smaller kitchen and another living room for the group to spread out. Bedrooms are split over the first and second floors where pastel hues and beachy flourishes are sure to send you off to sleep dreaming of the sea. 

Starfish & Driftwood

In the vibrant coastal city of Bournemouth, you won’t just be keeping yourself busy with watersports and sunbathing, but galleries, theatres, and historic churches. Forget about beach life for a second and head further up into town, where you’ll find this luxurious flat just ten minutes from Bournemouth train station on foot. In an Edwardian building, this refurbished home is a distinguished and elegant base for exploring the delights of Dorset. We love the fabulous living space – antique and vintage furniture meets modern, industrial pieces in this eclectic room. The brick fireplace features a funky mirror in its hearth, the Ziegler rug plays host to a mid-century leather Barcelona chair and footstool, the white Chesterfield sofa and regency chaise longue are perfect for relaxing, and the reflection of the black wire chandelier can be seen in the ornate gilded mirror. You’re sure to be charmed by this home of sophisticated and exquisite contrasts. On a sunny morning, wake up to light from the huge, bay windows and head out for a wander. You’ll hit the beach in under thirty minutes, but we recommend taking the long way through town to discover cool local shops and great restaurants on Charminster Road. Further afield, the scenic New Forest is half an hour away in the car, and the exclusive Sandbanks peninsula can be reached in twenty.

King Edward

Resort Access

This home is just a five-minute stroll from Bournemouth's town centre and ten from the beach and pier – now that's convenient. With such a wonderful location, we don't blame you for spending your days exploring. But for those seeking a bit of R&R, this house is the ideal choice. As soon as you walk through the door, you'll notice the relaxed ambience and seaside-inspired design. It's spread across three floors, so there's space for everyone. The kitchen is well-appointed for family dinners, while a small garden out back has sundowners and barbecues covered. Topping it all off, your host can arrange a hot tub for an additional fee – the perfect ending to a day on the coast.

Nestled in the beautiful maritime surroundings of Poole Quay, this home is a real gem in a corner of England that is often overlooked for popular seaside destinations such as Cornwall and Devon. Situated on the fourth floor, this stylish apartment boasts stunning 180° panoramic views over Visitors Marina, Brownsea Island and Purbecks beyond. Whether you're watching the sunrise or waiting for it to set, you'll absolutely love spending time on the balcony here. Make yourself a cream tea and a cuppa and watch the boats come in and out of the quay. Take in the sound of seagulls passing by and feel the sea breeze on your skin.

One of the best things about this home is its proximity to southeast beaches. Sandbanks is the pick of the bunch, and it only takes sixteen-minutes by car. When you're feeling hungry, there are a lot of great places to discover within walking distance. Take a four-minute scenic stroll along the harbour to Quayside, where you'll find a variety of restaurants, pubs and wine bars. You can't come here and not sample the fish & chips either! We recommend the fourteen-minute walk to Lakeside Fish & Chips for some hearty, traditional grub.

The beach is just a short walk away, which also means you can enjoy wonderful views here – there are 180-degree panoramas of the Isle of Wight, Sandbanks, and Swanage, which can be enjoyed from the balcony. If you’re not a fan of sandy feet, you can cool off in the private pool instead – and there’s a hot tub for relaxation.

For serious style and luxury in the heart of a pretty coastal town, look no further.
