A beautiful detached four-bedroom property tucked away in the town of Swanage, Dorset, 72 Ulwell Road is fantastically located near the coast; with easy access to the beach and beautiful views, this dwelling is ideal for couples, families and one well-behaved dog to enjoy a peaceful retreat. Upon arrival, be welcomed by a splendidly chic kitchen, ideal for rustling up delicious meals for guests as they make themselves comfortable in the spacious open-plan living space with dining seating for six. An appealing sitting area with flat-screen TV sculpts the flawless setting for relaxing evenings; on warmer evenings, why not venture to the enclosed garden where you can enjoy a glass of wine under the stars. Moving through the property reveals four plush bedrooms to choose from, each with their own sense of individuality and character; access from the double bedroom to a handy en-suite ensures you’ll feel invigorated and refreshed for the day ahead, whilst the remaining bedrooms are serviced by a contemporary shower room. Venturing into Swanage there are a great range of pubs to choose from, as well as go-to music venues, restaurants, and cafes; The Black Swan Inn is a locals’ and visitors’ favourite for its incredible food and laid-back vibe. For guests who are seeking a diverse range of water sports, coasteering and biking opportunities, look no further than Swanage Bay, with its fantastic display of outdoor adventure facilities such as boat hire, kayaking and sailing as well as the option to follow the walking trails, there is certainly something for everyone here. The Dorset Adventure Park is also nearby, or continue further afield to Poole to visit the famous Sandbanks Beach or enrich your local knowledge at the Dorset Museum in Dorchester. However, you prefer to spend your holiday, 72 Ulwell Road offers a wonderful starting point to delve into the remarkable surroundings of Dorset.

Swanage is a small, family-friendly beach town on the renowned Isle of Purbeck, at the eastern extremity of Dorset's renowned Jurassic Coast. Swanage is arguably best known for its lovely, gently sloping golden sands. The small town is well renowned for its annual jazz festival, which is held in July, and for its abundance of stores, fine taverns, and restaurants, some of which specialise in locally caught seafood. The charming Victorian wooden pier is a lovely spot to promenade, go fishing, or just sit and take in the sights. It's also a popular starting point for divers. Regular vintage steam engine excursions transport tourists on a charming 6-mile journey, chugging through gorgeous countryside to stop just beyond the romantic ruin of Corfe Castle, from the town's terminal on the historic Swanage Railway. With beautiful coastline walks, dolphin sightings, and wildlife viewing in addition to comfortable viewing areas and a well-stocked cafe for a treat after all the fresh air, nearby Durlston Country Park makes for a fantastic day out. Take the frequent chain ferry that travels over the mouth of Poole Harbour to Sandbanks and the short drive to Studland, which has one of the best beaches in the nation and is bordered by heathland. Any time of year, you can enjoy a great holiday here.
