Mrs Vickerman
We love this beautiful and well equipped flat; it’s perfect for a family holiday, having everything you would need and even more (we always cook a full Sunday roast whilst we are visiting!). We have stayed six times in the past 4&1/2 years and keep coming back because it’s so bright and spacious, clean and welcoming, and perfectly placed in Swanage to explore the seaside town and the wider area. Our four children (aged 1 to 14) always request to come back, so when we are not camping in Corfe Castle, this is our go to holiday home. The beds are super comfy, the dining table is perfect for a family breakfast and the showers are hot. There’s even the odd bucket and spade in the cupboard, bookshelves full of books for adults and children, and board games and puzzles too. What more could you want?!
