    I really liked Swanage.

    I really liked Swanage. There is wonderful walking on the Coastal Path and across the fields, on walks that are accessible by public bus. The Swanage Railway outing to Corfe Castle and the Mining Museum is a very good day out. The town itself has everything that a visitor needs in terms of supermarkets and restaurants and pubs. There is an excellent fish and chips place (The Fish Plaice) right on the square by the quay. Try the Cornish Bakery, too.

    A delightful little historical seaside town with easy walking access to a range of interesting shops and plenty of coffee places. Lots to do for all ages including the railway, museum and pier. We loved the beach and my grandson enjoyed the playground with the best views ever.

    Lovely seaside town with extraordinary beach and vista; we also like the shops, Steam Railway and the layout of the town. Lovely Cafe for Lunch where we waited to board the Waverly Paddle Steamer. A trip of the Swanage Steam Railway. A superb visit.

    We only stayed in Swanage as we know it well but we had an appointment in Poole on one day and walked to the Old Harry Rocks from the Bankes Arms in Studland on another. We ate out in Swanage each evening enjoying looking out to sea in the sunshine.

    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.

    Everything !!! Swanage Haven is just that - a haven. From the moment we first crossed the threshold we knew that we had chosen a gem for our first stay in this part of Dorset. we have stayed in many B&Bs over the years and Swanage Haven is up there with the best of them. Thanks Tina and Amanda for a wonderful stay.

    Smartly presented old-style grand hotel with good views to the sea and town of Swanage. My single room was smallish but had all that I needed. Common areas are nice and roomy. About a mile's walk from the centre of Swanage with a bit of a climb, but much nearer to the beach.
