Just up the road from the Blue Flag-awarded Swanage Beach, this home gives you a great excuse to visit the Jurassic Coast. Indulge in forgotten pleasures when you hop aboard the steam train to Corfe Castle. Or, how about a day trip to Monkey World instead? With high ceilings, original coving, and a feature fireplace, this space still embraces its 1890 origins. While the second bedroom serves youngsters, this apartment makes a good option for families seeking a seaside base.
