*Stunning River Views*, modern in great location
Fantastic stay for a long weekend with my wife! The location was perfect for exploring the town, and the exclusive development added a touch of luxury. The apartment was spotless and well-maintained, with a great view of the river from the balcony - The seating and table was very comfortable. The one-bedroom layout worked well for us, with spacious rooms and a hall. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. A big plus was the convenient car parking, just a stone's throw from the lift. One tip for future guests: make sure to pick up the garage key fob from the apartment before unloading your car! Overall, we were very comfortable here and would definitely stay again. Highly recommended!

Flat One The Beaches
We had an incredible stay with Nikki for our holiday this year. The flat was perfect for what we were looking for, a base right on the beach front where there were restaurants and cocktails bars around to enjoy in the evenings. Nikki was an excellent host and was very responsive whenever we messaged her with questions. Couldn’t have asked for a better host!

Best Sea View in Bournemouth! Home from Home
We loved the location with a fantastic view to watch the beautiful south coast. The apartment had all we needed for a great weeks break, the beds were really comfy. the hosts communication was perfect and they assisted us with the one or two questions as soon as as asked. Would stay again and missing it today.

Old Harbour House
Yet another great stay at this gorgeous little home from home Airbnb. Many thanks to the amazing Graham & Linda. Whom this time were even more accommodating by helping me out above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you!

Luxury apartment with breathtaking sea views
Lovely apartment. Everything we needed. Comfortable. Loved the balcony as it gave an unhindered outlook to the bay, which we love and have visited for many years. Daughter and family in flat below so gave us a lovely family holiday. Lovely Sunday lunch at the Albion though need to make sure you have the Sunday roast menu which they forgot to give us!! All in all a great stay. Many thanks. Mike and Lecky Allwood.

Lansdowne View - Weymouth (Sea Views)
Really nice modern apartment tucked up under the roofline of a classic building, with great views out over the beach and bay. Clean and tidy throughout, and only two things you should be aware of before booking (and both also as noted in the host's description, so there isn't anything new here): first, the fifty-odd stairs to get up to the top floor, be wary if you have heavy bags or lots of suitcases or bad knees; and second, the limited headroom in the upper attic master bedroom. But if you are willing to accept those two things (which we were), its a great place to stay, handy for railway station, easy walking to the town's historic areas, and with the beach right across the road. We enjoyed our stay in Weymouth, and loved the coastal scenery. And Rachel was very helpful and responsive throughout.

(Upper Deck) Beachside studio Weymouth
What an amazing place for a solo bank holiday weekend to reset and recharge! Terry’s apartment was perfectly located and had everything I needed. Train station close by and right next to the beach for those early morning dips and lots of amazing hikes and running routes nearby. I recommend The Smugglers Inn for a lovely Sunday Roast, and it’s right on the coastal path which is a stunning hike. There’s a lovely cafe and local convenience store for essentials right on the doorstep of the apartment - and the balcony is a prime spot for a coffee, taking in the waves and watching the world go by. Being able to hear the waves through the windows in the apartment was pretty special! A great stay and a super friendly and communicative host. Thank you Terry!

The View - No Booking Fees
We stayed for 3 nights at “The View”. The property was ideally located for exploring the Mudeford area. On the waterfront it had views that you would never tire of. It is set in a peaceful and quiet location and is perfect for a chilling break. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen well equipped if you choose to stay in. All in all we would recommend to others and will hopefully return to stay in the not too distant future 👍.

SUNNY DAYS - Free parking. 3 minutes from beach
Lovely house with the added bonus of a parking space. The house was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. It was very well stocked with everything you could want and it's a very easy short walk to the beach. I absolutely would recommend this.

Historic town centre riverside hideaway
A truly special place. The pictures actually don’t do justice to how spacious it is, and how immaculate and well thought out it is, and the Wind in the Willows theme works perfectly in the peaceful surroundings of the riverbank. It’s a really calming and cosy place, and sitting eating breakfast by the riverbank was a joy. The spa bathroom is an extra treat on top. Chris and Judy were extremely proactive and we arrived fully informed with local recommendations and everything was easy to check in and out. We met Judy on the second day who very kindly greeted us and gave us more tips on things to do nearby. We hope one day to return!

Stunning views over Lymington river
This was the perfect get away. The house was lovely and had everything we needed . Parking was a short walk but no problem. We loved the views and the setting was gorgeous. I would not hesitate to recommend and I would certainly like to return. Thank you Corinne for a great holiday!

Chesil Cove, Portland's jewel
I have just enjoyed a four night stay at Grey Joy. A beautifully presented and perfectly located cosy house. It has everything you need including a lovely outside space. Grey Joy is a few foot steps from Chesil beach and next door to The Cove pub. I could not have been happier with this little Air B&B

Abbey Water Rooms
When people say "hidden jem" this is what they mean. Photos really don't do this beautiful annex justice. And Sue is a fantastic host. Very picturesque and peaceful too, though be mindful of the Abbey bells which can start early morning (Sunday).

☆ Modern 5 Bed | Balcony | Garden | Sea Views ☆
Excellent house, fully equipped and pristine. A large garden, with a good size patio. Host very responsive to any queries. Not many attractions within walking distance, but lots within driving distance. Overall a very quiet area, with the garden very peaceful, but the house is on a slightly busy road with some traffic still passing the front bedrooms late at night.

April's Cottage, sea views close to Chesil Beach
We had the best of week's at April's cottage. it's very sweet and placed in a super location. All the facilities are as listed, the view is absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. The cottage is well situated, and I highly recommend the fish shop which can be found at the top of the road two minutes walk away. We just had the most relaxing of stays and will definitely make a return visit.

2 bed House with Sea View and 2 parking spaces
Very clean and comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked. Nice stay

New Upscale Contemporary Apartment - River Views
Great view over the river, apartment was very clean, modern and secure with keypad entry. Easy walk to restaurants and Spar supermarket nearby. Secure car park, parking space numbers are on the ground with slightly weird numbering system. Excellent entry instructions from the host, just read them properly. It does make the apartment very secure. Definitely a great choice to stay in Southampton.

Historic Quay | 2 The Old Alarm with free parking
Julie was a fantastic host, she was very responsive and helpful. The flat was lovely, it was in a great central location and was well equipped, homely and pristine. There were thoughtful touches such as the welcome hamper and a useful parking permit. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or to return again.

Seafront & Views, Central Swanage, Victorian flat
A spacious, light and airy flat. It was well equipped and very comfortable. The central location was ideal for us. Andreas communicated well with us and we had a very enjoyable stay.

Penthouse, 10 min walk from beach, Parking on Site
Very helpful and responsive host, beautifully decorated apartment in a great location to access the beach and conference centre

Stunning Beachfront apartment overlooking the sea
Perfect location! Amazing seaside views, really enjoyed watching the waves and people watching from the comfort of the sofa/bedroom. Kitchen well stocked and lovely touch of bread, milk, jam and biscuits for breakfast the next day. The sofa bed was really comfy for our two children, and plenty of space for our family of four. Super clear instructions to enter, and the parking permit was a huge plus! Really enjoyed our stay!

Sandbanks snug
Nice clean accommodation, well decorated with everything you would need, good communication from Maureen regarding the stay. Tesco nearby for groceries, Cafe 100yds away for coffee and breakfast or dinner. We stayed for a weekend and went to eat at Rick Steins one night and Poole harbour the next night.

East Winds Apartment Fabulous sea view 🏖
A wonderful little flat, with great views over the harbour. It was perfectly located for a variety of amenities and an easy walk to the coastal path. Martin let us know that we could check in just after 12pm, which meant we could settle in and enjoy our first day without waiting. The apartment was clean, well equipped and private. Instructions were all clear and access was easy. Free parking is around the corner from the property, on a residential road. Swanage is a great town, with plenty to do for a weekend break. The location of the apartment, with its sea view are the stand out features. We had a great stay and will visit again!

Spacious, contemporary ground floor apartment.
Absolutely charming accommodation. Really spacious and well laid out. Felt like home away from home, could have stayed here for longer and will definitely look into coming back here. Lovely walk to the nearest pub for lunch, the mill is right on the river with Stunning views of the surrounding area. Nice garden area with views of the cows in the field. The hot water was extremely hot so be careful, but it was nice to always have plenty of hot water for washing and showering. Overall a lovely private place to stay.
