The host did a lot to make us feel comfortable for example a manual with lots of advice and little notes around the property. This made understanding the property very easy. Gorgeous views from the living room. We could have sat there all day staring at the hills and coastline. The garden was split over three levels. The host had left complimentary tea/coffees/milk and sugar. Cleaning kits and lots of crockery Comfy beds and bed sheets that smelled incredible. Lots of space in the house for everyone to relax and enjoy. A well stocked bookshelf.

    Lovely place for a weeks holiday, Swanage has many eating places, sometimes pricey. And the good ones are all reserved quickly. So you have to be quick! Durston park was very good for a walk which is nearby. Corfe Castle too steep for us. The steam train quite expensive for only a few miles from Swanage.

    Great family location, lots of restaurants to choose from. Only minor issue, you need to try and book tables during high season as a lot of places were very busy. We only found one place where you could book online.

    Busy seaside resort, and good pier and nice clean sandy beaches. However, apart from few pubs , all places were closed shortly after 9pm, including most restaurants- surprising on August Bank Holiday.

    Swanage is an amazing place to relax and enjoy the beach and sea. A variety of food and shops and arcades in the town make the need to travel any further unnesaccery. A trip on the steam train to corfe castle and a cream tea after a walk up the hill and back is also a great experience

    It's a lovely seaside town with the usual attractions such as boat trips, arcades and crazy golf. What I did think was good were the amount of public toilets, especially as we went during the peak time of August!! There are plenty of cafes and places to eat. We walked around, but there seemed to be plentyof public transport if you want to go further afield.

The shops consist of lots of fish and chip shops, gift shops and the usual amusement arcade found in traditional seaside towns. There is a steam railway situated right inside the town, as well as coastal walks.

    The Pines is friendly and comfortable, a lovely place to be based on a visit to Swanage and that bit of Dorset. The staff were helpful and responsive. We were a family group and it catered for the youngest and oldest among us, a comfortable lounge for Grandad who doesn't walk as far these days, good Wi-Fi for the youngest when he was having his screen time, and steps to the beach for the rest of us who fancied a dip after walking into Swanage and back. We hope to be back sometime.

    Great location a short stroll to Swanage Beach, Hot showers clean and quiet campsite the bell tent was spacious and the bag of wood and kindling for the fire pit was very nice for toasting marshmallows. The site is big but very well maintained by Barbara. No noise spacious pitches not overcrowded and very considerate friendly campers it's also dog friendly. We had enough plug sockets for our phones x 4

    We have been coming to Swanage for years and have stayed here in the past. The hotel has been refurbished tastefully. The location is very convenient with steps to the beach. It was only an overnight stay but it suited our needs well.
