Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Swanage

Clear instructions on how to get there and get in. Nice and clean. Had everything you need. Would definitely recommend!

We enjoyed our stay , the weather was lousy and Andrew promised sun lol The concierge was helpful, we had two cars and he found a place for my Sister. Bournemouth needs sunshine to be fully appreciated.

Our second short visit to Jim's luxurious and spacious apartment - just as good as we remembered. The weather wasn't great so our planned beach trips were cancelled but we enjoyed the cinema room and pool table and some nice meals in local restaurants.

The apartment was well located a short walk from the beach and restaurants. It was easy to find and get into - comprehensive instructions and photos provided were very helpful. The apartment was quiet, relaxing, thoughtfully appointed and decorated and felt very safe. The off road parking space was a real bonus as well as the on site gym! It was lovely to have the thoughtful and generous welcome pack, and all the basics for cooking were provided in the kitchen.

We had a great stay at the Reef Retreat! Apartment is in a beautiful converted hotel, from way back in the day when Boscombe had its wealthier clientele! Its a short 5 mins walk to both the beach (Boscombe pier) and Boscombe high street (Where you can get all the supplies you might need). Bournemouth pier itself is about a 20-25 minute flat walk from Boscombe pier. Apartment itself was lovely and clean and looks just like the pictures. Has 2 entrances which make getting in and out easy once you have settled in. Beds were comfy, showers were good and wifi fast and reliable. Kitchen had all utensils you would need to make a meal and plenty of mugs, cups plates etc. Although, we ate out most nights. Kids loved the games and DVD's available. If you are coming to visit Bournemouth for the beach, this is a great location. Teresa was very kind, helpful and always available to answer any questions. Would definitely stay again.

We had a lovely long weekend and the apartment was perfect for our needs. It was spotlessly clean with a fully equipped kitchen. Plenty of space for all. Very comfy beds and pillows too! Short walk to Boscombe beach. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a weekend in Bournemouth and surrounding area.

Fantastic communication from the host, he always got back to me within a very reasonable time period, and was helpful in his responses. The place was spotlessly clean and perfect for what we needed. Great location - fab walk along the beach to Bournemouth. I would definitely visit again! Thanks Chris 👏

We would definitely stay again and recommend this nice accommodation. Host was very helpful and accommodating. Great home from home, very clean and comfortable. Stunning views of the bay and surrounding countryside.

Great flat in a fabulous location with a lovely host. 5 minutes walk from Boscombe pier . Flat was as described and actually more spacious than what we were expecting. Maureen was always on hand if you needed her. Flat is ideally located to explore Bournemouth and the wider surrounding area.

Absolutely fantastic stay! Such a fabulous apartment in a really lovely building and so close to the most gorgeous beach. The place has everything one can wish for, and I personally was impressed with a well-equipped kitchen that is a must for self-catering holidays. Alison is one of the best hosts we have ever had: friendly and proactive, responding very quickly to any question or query and ready with assistance of every kind. Her amazing welcome pack is a very kind gesture that was greatly appreciated by us after a long journey to Bournemouth. We had such a good time and hope to come back one day.

Absolutely amazing stay at Samantha's place! Communication was excellent from start to finish. The flat is truly beautiful - the photos don't do justice to how spacious and open the main rooms actually are. The location couldn't be better - just a 5 minute walk to the beach and a short drive to the New Forest. We were able to explore so many beautiful sights all within easy reach. The beds were very comfortable and all appliances were new and worked perfectly. We hope to return again soon!

Patrycja’s place was newly renovated, fresh and clean. It had a nice ambiance and a very well equipped kitchen. The place is spacious and relaxing. Worth noticing, though, is that you must climb stairs up to the top floor which we had missed and was a bit tricky with a pusher. Otherwise the place suited well even for a family with a toddler. It is in the middle of one of the main streets and some noise from the party people down the street will eventually be heard up to the apartment. We were ok with that though and slept well.

Great location, apartment and amenities. Had a lovely stay and used the gym & played pool everyday. Highly recommend

A fantastic flat, beautiful view from the balcony, easy walk to the beach. Thank you Nigel! We will be back!

We spent 6 days in an excellent accommodation and the facilities in the hotel were great. Our host was very helpful and supportive if we had any questions. We would definitely highly recommend this apartment.

Ben replied prompty to messages and the apartment was very clean. We had a really comfortable stay. Lovely to see the beach in the distance out of the living room window. Would definitely book again.

Our extended family had a super time together at Richard's gorgeous house. It's a really characterful place and such a versatile space for a big group. Richard really has thought of everything; from the plentiful beach towels to the fully stocked kitchen. A first class rental.

Kim’s place was just what we wanted… clean, was ready for us to check in early and had everything we needed. Even had some fun reading through the book of knock knock jokes! Kim was responsive when I asked her some questions and she gave very accurate instructions on how to find everything.

We had a lovely few days here. The accommodation was ideal for our family of 4 and our little dog. Located very close to the beautiful local beach and easy reach of excellent restaurants and cafes. The accommodation was spotless and had everything you could possibly need. We had a great holiday!

Thank you Julie, for making our stay fantastic. The little extra touches along with the recommendations and option to check in early really allowed us to make the most of our stay. We will defo look to stay here again next time we look to come down to the new forest. Thank you Fiona

Definitely would revisit. Great location, especially for my parents who are limited in how far they can walk before needing a breather. Place was cosy for 6 of us, but never too much under each other's feet. Evenings, all warm and cosy especially with the fire.

I had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb. The house was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described – the perfect home base for our trip. Our host, Paul, was incredibly friendly and accommodating, and he went out of his way to make sure everything was just right. He also gave us loads of great suggestions for local activities and places to check out, which really helped us make the most of our time in the area. Communication was easy and quick, and I felt genuinely welcomed from the moment I arrived. Couldn’t have asked for a better host or a better experience. Thanks again, Paul – we’d love to come back!

Stayed at Helen's holiday home near the sea for a week - I could have stayed longer! Perfect location, both in terms of the New Forest (walkable distance to the beach/sea and not far from other local attractions) and location in the caravan park itself (two minutes one way is a good sized playground my five year old happily made lots of use of, two minutes the other way you are at reception, pool (again, used plenty), restaurant, etc). The home was plenty big enough for the three of us, its comfortable, has everything you might need (sharp knives in the kitchen - unheard of in a rental!) and a spacious deck out front (we didn't unfortunately make use of the deck as although sunny our stay was early in the season so quite windy). Helen was really helpful before our stay and was quick enough to answer any questions I had. I would happily recommend Helen's home (and the site as a whole) and am hoping she will allow us to come stay again sometime.

This is a gem of a find! I stayed here with 2 other adults and a child and it was perfect! The location is ideal, only a 5 min short drive to Christchurch. The caravan is peaceful and quiet but also a mere 1 min walk to the clubhouse, arcade, restaurant and swimming pool! The place itself was fantastic, homely, modern and the beds were so comfy. We couldn't believe how amazing it was in person and we were delighted with it. Anita was also so helpful with any questions and even sorting our clubhouse pass. I will most definitely be returning!
