Property is in a beautiful location with stunning views. Very short drive to Swanage and great location for getting to places such as Wareham, Kimmeridge and Durdledoor.
As other reviewers have said, the photos don't do the property justice and in todays climate I found the price good value for the amenities. Very clean and property well equipped.
Just a note that there's a shared passage at the back of the house to get to the back garden. Just need to be mindful if you are bringing dogs.
Also to note, house is accessed by a dirt track.

Absolutely perfect accomodation for our family of 6. It is perfectly situtated within walking distance of the coast without having to be within the tourist area. The property manager was fabulous at communicating and left lots of helpful information for us.
The cottage was well equiped and we had everything we needed for our week away.

We've had a very nice holiday in this beautiful old house with outstanding views. Owner John responded quickly to any queries we had and everything was as described in the advertising. Location ideal for coastal walking. Highly recommended.

We loved our stay. The house is clean and bigger and brighter than it looks in the pictures. Great views towards Corfe and Swanage bay from the front of the house. It’s ideally positioned for walks, perfect for families who enjoy being outdoors, especially if you bring your dog like we did.

Well modernised cottage. Lovely kitchen and bathroom. Lovely view to front. Bedrooms very light, great in day but would benefit from thicker curtains.
Would not recommend for small children due to the prominent stone hearth surround. Also the instruction not to allow the dog to "do its business" in the garden but to take it across the fields renders the garden useless for a dog (Have you ever tried to make one stop)
All in all a great place for a family with older children but wouldn't take a dog or small children.

Very clean and cosy with log fire but not enough logs or coal for a 3 day stay and the heating on timer wasn’t adequate if you wanted to stay in although the owner left phone numbers so might have provided more if we had asked. Plenty of hot water and dog walking areas but didn’t see any local shops. 2 pubs in village and short drive to Swanage though.

We loved our stay at Castle View. The property was warm, clean, well equipped and comfortable. It was a perfect base for walking, exploring the coastline and pottering in the local villages.

It is a friendly, homely property. Everything works really well for a family stay. We had three adults and two children. Plenty to do within a short distance. The highlight was just to walk across the fields, closely followed by a short cruise in Poole harbour. We hope to return.

Beautiful location with views of Swanage bay one side and corfe castle the other! Spacious 3 bedroom cottage, located down a narrow private lane, luckily we had a 4x4 so the potholes weren't an issue but I think we got a few scratches from the overgrowth. The kitchen was very well equipped for us to cook in the evenings opening out into the dining room and there is a very comfortable sitting room. The towels weren't soft and there's some mold in the bathroom grout which could easily be sorted along with the fixtures just need bringing back to life and the limescale removed. All in all, for the price this is an awesome place. Just needs a little TLC and attention to detail. We enjoyed amazing walks to corfe castle through fields of sheep, cows and horses.

Purbeck Stay
Loved the property. Perfect location for Purbeck walks, right from the front door. Lovely garden, comfortable lounge, fine kitchen, great shower...
During the second half of our holiday the sun went, and the strong winds started. It was a bit of a challenge saying warm in the master bedroom. The caretaker helped us with the heating settings, and there were lots of blankets provided, but the mattress was so cold as the wind leaked through. Fortunately we had taken an electric blanket with us, which saved the day!

We really enjoyed our stay as an extended family with teenagers and also grandparent. The house has a comfortable lived in feel which was just right for us. It felt like a home. Well equipped kitchen and good bathroom with plenty of hot water. Very convenient downstairs toilet as well.
Good location with a 20 minute walk over fields to the coastal path. Quiet with outlook over fields and further away hills plus Corfe Castle and the sea!

Very well equipped, family sized property with a pretty rear garden, situated on the outskirts of Langton Matravers. It is 7 minutes from bus stops & several walks can be started from here. Lovely views from the front double bedroom.

Really could see both Isle of Wight and Corfe Castle! Way above expectations there. Just so lovely, quiet and relaxing. Great location for walks right on your doorstep...just wish we had more time to explore. Local pub did great food and even had a good choice for a fussy vegan! Definitely would come back
