Mr Smith
The flat was in an excellent location just minutes from the seafront and a short walk to the town. The flat was clean, well equipped and roomy. The kitchen had everything you could need and well laid it. Great that we had our own parking space made unloading and loading the care easy. Definitely would stay here again

We had a wonderful week at Sandy Castle. Excellent location and great facilities with a dedicated parking place. Lovely welcome pack was appreciated. Would definitely stay there again.

Excellent position in Swanage with a parking space at the back, although a few steps down to path. 2nd bedroom quite small (ok for small kids). Thought quite pricey overall. Quite nice lounge but some areas wanted some TLC
