Simply perfect!

We are just home from a wonderful week in beautiful Swanage. The flat was perfect, clean and really homely. Communication with Hilary was brilliant and the process for getting and returning keys was easy. Thank you so much and we would highly recommend!

We had a lovely stay at Hilary’s place in Swanage. Quiet area, short walk to beach. Accommodation was well equipped, like a home from home. Everything you need for an excellent holiday and things you didn’t think you’d need. Read all the information in the notice board and you’ll see. Such a lovely welcome pack with a personal touch. Note on allocated parking. We have a golf and it was a little tight.Would definitely recommend what we called ‘Hilary’s Place’Thank you Hilary.

Excellent location superb views

We had keys provided by host beforehand so were able to get straight in. There was room to park immediately outside and a reserved garage spot underneath. Flat was very well equipped. Location was marvellous and the view stupendous. Would use again.

Sandringham Court Review

The flat had 5 very clean and pleasant rooms containing comfortable furniture. The kitchen was well equipped with a plentiful amount of cleaning stuff eg. dishwasher tablets . And a super welcome hamper. The lounge/ dining room and the main bedroom had beautiful views over the downs. Walking distance into the high street and a back lane walk to the station and bus depot are relatively short and easy. There is a parking bay underneath the block of flats which is reached by a different road from the front. It is alright but care needs to be taken when coming out of the space. Then there is a steep concrete slope that takes you up to the level of the front of the flats. But there is a good handrail. All in all a very nice stay in Swanage.

Parking !

The big letdown for us was the parking ! Untill Tuesday it was fine but when the bay next to us was in use we couldn't park . We drive a mazda cx5 and there was just no room,so had to drive round and find a space somewhere on the road . Also the hill from car park is very steep not suitable for older people !! Saying that the flat was very nice ,but we won't be going back .
Response from VrboOwner on 5 Mar, 2020
Thank you for your review. We were very sorry to hear that you had an issue with the parking and this marred your stay. We do appreciate that our reserved allocated parking space can be a bit tight with two large vehicles side by side. There is often parking available in the street outside the front of the block of flats or to the rear in Argyle Road as an alternative for free on street parking. We were pleased that you found the rest of our accommodation was fine and to your liking. Ian & Hilary Hyde

Lovely place

We recently stayed at the flat advertised. It was very clean and tidy and well equipped. We had everything down to nice touches of cake and wine on arrival. Which was very rich appreciated. Would def stay here again. Many thanks for a enjoyable holiday. We do love swanage and this is centrally located with lovely views so it's a win win for us.

Superb accommodation in a great location

Snug. Extremely well equipped. Spotlessly clean throughout. Reliable WiFi. Narrow parking and my car is only small but thankfully nothing in the adjacent space that might have been tricky. Perfectly located on the Priest’s Way and for using the buses.

Thank you for your complimentary comments - we always try to make our guests feel welcome and at home in our property. Whilst we appreciate that the reserved undercover allocated parking can be a little tight, there is often alternative free parking in the street opposite the main entrance to the flat although this can't be guaranteed. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful walks that are on our doorstep and hope to see you again in 2018. Hilary Hyde
