The property is fabulous with a lovely garden. We found it easily, with lots of parking spaces. The property is clean, airy and light. It has a perfect location with just a 20 minute walk to the sea. We had an excellent stay.
Beautiful home with a garden my grandson never wanted to leave. The house is near to everything we needed yet in a peaceful spot. The Communication from the owner was helpful and kind. Highly recommend this home for a family, to all stay together yet escape when needed
It’s always a pleasure to stay at the Gatehouse. This was our second visit, and once again, it didn’t fail to delight us.The house is beautifully appointed, with comfortable, homely furnishings, high-end appliances and wonderful-quality linens. Everything has been thoughtfully provided, so we had absolutely everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.The location is also excellent — just a 10-minute walk down to the beach and high street, making it easy to enjoy everything the area has to offer.We would definitely stay at the Gatehouse again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-equipped and beautifully located home away from home.
The host was very accommodating and no request was too much trouble. The property was in excellent condition and all facilities and contents as described. The property was in a great location with a 15 min walk to the beach or town centre. Would recommend the property and host to anyone planning a trip to Swanage.

Great house with a great location to enjoy all Swanage has to offer. Easy walk to pubs, restaurants, shopping and beach. Nice extra to have designated parking. House is well appointed with a beautiful garden. We loved our stay!
Fantastic property just a 15 minute walk to town & beach. We had a wonderful stay with our daughter & grand daughter, on the beach every day & back in the beautiful garden later. I could move in tomorrow, it was perfect.
Great house for fantastic family seaside summer holiday
Fantastically well equipped, good layout with nice outside space and great BBQ.
Swanage was great for the kids, lovely beach and fantastic sand for castle building.
We had great weather and there was so much to do in the local area of Purbeck.
Lovely weeks stay at The Gatehouse. It’s a very comfortable, well equipped property with little extra touches like toys/games in the children’s room and use of the beach equipment which was a great help! The garden was enjoyable to relax in after days of exploring the Jurassic Coast. Would recommend!
The cottage is lovely as is the garden, it’s well equipped and was very comfortable for five adults and a baby. The location is quiet yet only 10-15min walk into Swanage centre with the added advantage of parking. Sally is very responsive if you have any questions. We loved our stay, wish it had been longer!
A great location and spacious house - ideal for 4 adults and a one-year old. The garden looked lovely, but it was October-November so we didn't use it. Great to have private parking by the house.Very warm; a good-sized, well-stocked kitchen!
A very comfortable house, exactly as described - well-furnished & maintained; in a quiet location but nearby the town & all its services. The owner was helpful & responsive.
Excellent stay in this modern comfortable property
The good weather enabled us to enjoy the lovely spacious garden. The house was very well equipped, we had everything we needed. It was also very handy to have use of an outdoor socket to charge our car from. All in all a great stay we would definite return.
