Swanage is a traditional Victorian seaside town, built around a beautiful bay sheltered from the north by Ballard Down and at the south, Peveril Point. Enjoy the 'blue flag' quality beach or explore the fabulous Dorset countryside. Whatever your idea of relaxation, you'll find it here.
The Isle of Purbeck, strictly speaking a peninsula not an island, with its World Heritage Jurassic Coast, offers sandy beaches, magnificent cliffs and wonderful countryside to walk. Wildlife, attractions, steam railway and boat trips - it's all there.
