  The house was lovely!

  Large, well equipped kitchen, lovely dining room and a good sitting room. There could have been more places to sit - when the house is full, you have to sit on dining chairs. The bedrooms are wonderful! Big, lots of storage, clean, comfortable beds. The bathrooms are lovely, especially the one on the top floor. With many people in the house, we appreciated the to extra seperate toilets in addition to the bathrooms. The little apartment was also very good to have when staying 14 people in the house. Being Norwegian, we could't manage the AGA in the kitchen, so we had to use the other stove. We would have preferred two "ordinary" stoves, but that is more our own problem. It was very helpful with the big utility room and being able to wash and dry clothes. There was also a good parking space for our four cars. The house is just a short walk from the beach and town centre. I would highly recommend this property for big families to enjoy a holiday in lovely Swanage

  My wife, myself and our four friends made the very best of our one week stay at 20 Ulwell Road.

  I say this, as the weather could have been a lot kinder to us. We were left a very nice welcome pack, that contained most of the 'immediate essentials.' The house is very well presented and had pretty much everything we could have wanted. I stayed in the ground floor bedroom/apartment, which was large. The furnishings in this room are a little bit tired, but perfectly adequate. The shower has some black mould on the seals. My one big problem with this room was the tap in the sink. It took around 5 minutes for any hot water to come through and when it did, there was just the smallest gap between cold and scorching hot. This needs fixing. The lounge and dining room are very nice, as were the other bedrooms, although one shower was not working. One pleasant call with the Owner was enough for this to be fixed. I would recommend the rental of this property to anyone.

  We had a lovely stay over the Christmas and New Year period.

  The house was decorated with a tree and the outside looked spectacular with twinkling lights in abundance. Very spacious, comfortable and warm. The location is very peaceful too and only a short drive from shops, petrol stations and pubs. There was an issue for a few days with hot water but this was quickly resolved to our complete satisfaction. Tony and Dawn, the owners, live next door and are on hand if needed. I did not raise at the time as we have access to a home nearby for anything we need, but I would flag there is only one saucepan which has a lid which is inadequate, and perhaps an addition of a larger Pyrex type dish or two would be useful for anyone wanted to cook a roast with all the trimmings. We loved our stay and the property and hope we are fortunate to stay again in the future.

  There was no means of making coffee at the property.

  At this price we would have expected a cafetiere or filter coffee facility. We had to buy our own cafetiere to use. There is a coal fired barbeque. Given the awkwardness of purchasing coals and firelighters and disposing of ashes it was no surprise that it had clearly never been used. We would have expected a gas fired barbeque. The difference in levels in the hard surfaced outside patio was a bit of a hazard for toddlers, but I accept there is nothing that can be done about that. Despite the comments above it is a lovely spacious house very convenient for the beach, and so we have re booked for next year

  Overall superb break!

  Great location! Superb for those who want an 'away from town' experience. Not so great for those without their own transport. In Early July - we felt we would have preferred accommodation warmer in the evenings which turned cooler...regularly.. Our dog loved the space & freedom of the accommodation as indeed did we a family group of four. Hosts were attentive, but not intrusive - Overall we had excellent sleep - though my partner felt bed in 'main ' bed- room uncomfortable though wonderfully wide. We are both in our 70's and would have preferred good quality 'toppers'. Would definitely recommend!
