Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Swanage

Excellent accommodation set in beautiful surroundings with amazing amenities( swings, games room and numerous in-house games and children’s books) on site supplemented with outstanding walks - the hot tub was a particular whole family favourite. Dave was an excellent host, always easy to reach and so understanding of our needs or a family emergency when it arose - we are very grateful for his kindness and understanding . We booked for a whole family including grandchildren to celebrate my wonderful wife’s 60th birthday, and we had such an amazing time we are already collating dates for a return visit .

Jo was an excellent host! Beautiful little cottage, perfect! with everything we needed for the stay. Jo lit the fire ready for our arrival, can’t recommend enough! Thanks Jo, it was a wonderful stay.

A lovely stay at Magna Cottage for Christmas 2024, a fabulous place that hosted 4 generations of the family. Unbeatable countryside walks, gorgeous views, beautiful fire place, lots of board games. What a pleasure

I’d never arranged a gathering with this many people before, so I was worried how it would turn out, but I needn’t have been, everything was fantastic from the get-go. The instructions to find the house were flawless, and there was plenty of parking space for us all. None of the bedrooms felt cramped, even though there were so many of us, and there were plenty of bathrooms dotted around. The kitchen is vast, with multiple fridges and a great oven, and we really enjoyed being able to eat together around the massive dining room table. The living room could accommodate all of us, and much fun was had with the pool and table football tables, as well as the hot tub. Throughout our stay our hosts were invisible unless we needed them, at which point they replied swiftly. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone with a large party, thanks for having us!

I booked this accommodation for 2 of my engineers whom were working in Dorset and they absolutely enjoyed the relaxing stay, location, amenities and communication are one of the best Air B & B they have stayed at.

We have stayed here many times before and will stay again, it is such a lovely place. Brilliant for walking, right next to Chesil Beach. Excellent !!

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful home! We were celebrating our mums 60th birthday and she was blown away by this stunning house in a quiet scenic setting. The large open kitchen made meal times enjoyable and fun. The pool table was a hit along with the hot tub! We had a fantastic stay and Matthew was very helpful from start to finish.

Fantastic break away in the new forest , very private and peaceful everything we was looking for in a getaway from London . Would highly recommend and would most definitely return in the future .

Excellent all round. Very clean and comfortable. Well laid out rooms. Kitchen well equipped. Especially good shower room with plenty of space. The road is very quiet at night. Walking distance to local shops, and to the very pleasant park-like areas around the river by Tuckton Bridge. Kind greeting from hosts, who provided an extra chair, and adjusted the heating for me. I would stay again !

Brilliant accommodation! Great communication from Phil

Was a lovely clean flat and brilliantly located within walking distance to all local amenities.

Lovely stay again with Lynne (3rd time). Such a brilliant space with everything you could think of provided. Warm and clean. Lynne is there if you need her but otherwise so nice to be left in peace. Thank you Lynne

Perfection. Six weeks in this wonderful apartment with its cosy rooms and beautiful views were not enough. It looks even better in reality than it does in the photos. I was there on my own and felt totally secure at all times of day and night, and the area has so many tasty eateries from 7.30am (Cornish Bakery) till late (Rise). And going to sleep to the pulse of the waves is a delight. All the arrival and appliance instructions are helpfully detailed and accessible. I cannot fault a thing. Do be aware that there is a narrow-ish staircase up to the apartment (no lift in the historic - iconically magnificent! - building) - it's perfectly serviceable (and lit), but it's worth being prepared for the initial lugging upstairs of your belongings! I recommend a pastry from the bakery to reward your labours. Thank you so much, Suzanne and Pete - I would come back tomorrow if I could!

A great place. Good location. Parking not far but street parking a problem.

We had a lovely stay. The garden apartment very clean, spacious and very well furnished and had everything you needed. Richard was very helpful and communicated well. 10 minute walk to the lovely beach which has an excellent bar and food! Would definitely recommend and be back.

Great place to stay for our couple of nights in Swanage. Really close to the town centre and beach. A clean and comfortable flat with a lovely view and responsive hosts. The shower is tricky to use without flooding the bathroom, especially for a tall person, but it is understandable given the nature of the space and is in keeping with the very reasonable price of the accommodation. We stayed here with our two children (12 and 9) and all loved it!

James is a lovely person and his home is really magical and he gave us total privacy but was ready to help or advise on anything, it was a lovely experience and definitely going back the house is fantastic really special and huge I have never slept in such a huge house even the bathroom was lovely the house is really authentic and fabulous wild garden I loved the windows beautiful location really quiet

Local shops , and the beach within easy 5-10 minutes walk and buses same time away into Bournemouth Poole and Christchurch . A wonderful seven days

Enjoyed a memorable stay in Goretti’s peaceful and spacious home. The house is fully equipped and was extremely clean. We particularly enjoyed the beautiful garden and conservatory. Communication was seamless. Would definitely recommend this beautiful home. It was lovely to be greeted by the host with a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge.

Lovely family home in the heart of the new forest. Was perfect for a pre Christmas getaway with lovely fireplace and warm Arga in the kitchen. Ian and team were very accommodating and it was lovely to have our two cocker spaniels with us to enjoy long daily walks in the forest. Will definitely be back again

We had a really lovely few days, thank you so much for making it all so easy and accessible. The house was wonderful and in particular the table tennis, croquet and hot tub were greatly enjoyed by everybody. Being able to walk to the beach through the woods was also fantastic. I am hoping we will back to stay again soon!
