Sleeps 7
Weekly prices from £900 to £ 1299
Self catering accommodation in Isle of Purbeck sleeps 7.
Features include: • Open Fire or Woodburner Stove • Short Breaks • Fishing nearby • Garden • Sleeps 7
Accommodation overview: These two magnificent listed buildings offering wonderful character holiday accommodation are in a residential area just a mile away from the lovely sandy beaches of Swanage Bay. Newton Manor House dates back to the early 1600s and is built from local Purbeck stone. Lovingly restored by the present owners, the house has retained much original charm and features a profusion of ornate oak panelling and wood carvings. The principal rooms overlook the serene landscaped gardens, while the first and second floor rooms offer far-reaching views across the small seaside town of Swanage, to the sea and coast beyond. Newton Hall dates back over a thousand years and is originally believed to have been a Saxon barn. Altered during the 19th century to form a grand hall to the attached manor house, it has a beautiful walled garden with sunken fish pond, accessed via an old coach house. An ancient cupola adorns the vaulted ceiling of the hall. For larger groups a ‘secret passage’ can be opened to connect the two properties, and the main reception room of Newton Hall can be transformed into a stunning banquet-style dining hall for special occasions.
The town of Swanage nestles peacefully amidst the beautiful Isle of Purbeck countryside, and is set betwixt the Heads of Durlston and Studland, sloping gently down to the water’s edge. This small pleasant resort has an array of restaurants, interesting shops and a small theatre, not to mention spectacular floral displays in the parks and gardens. In season, pleasure cruisers leave the pier daily, bound for Poole, Bournemouth and the Isle of Wight. The Lifeboat Centre at Pervil Point is open to the public and fascinating to visit, whilst Durlston Country Park provides magnificent cliff walks and views of Anvil Point Lighthouse. A trip aboard Swanage’s restored steam railway also makes for a fun day out, winding its way through pretty scenery to the ruins of Corfe Castle.
Fine coastal walks extend round Studland Head, to the coveted Blue Flag beach in the north, whilst the South West Coastal Path leads to Kimmeridge, Tyneham and West Lulworth in the west, much of which is National Trust land and rich in local flora and fauna. The larger seaside resorts of Poole and Bournemouth are just a ferry ride away, boasting a huge range of shops, theatres, museums, cinemas, and restaurants. The entire coast is excellent for trying out all manner of watersports - windsurfing, water-skiing, yachting and surfing to name just a few. Fishing and tennis are available a mile away in Swanage, and a local golf course can be found nearby. Shop ¼ mile.
