    As seen in our new Holidays film - Seaview is a former tennis pavilion turned quirky holiday cottage with stacks of charm. From its veranda you’ll have front row seats of Studland Bay. Open the double French doors to a bright and airy space where cream wood-panelled walls run throughout the cottage. 

    Studland Beach is just a 10-minute walk away, where you’ll find a vast stretch of sand, an abundance of water sports and views of Old Harry Rocks. For a more secluded beach without the crowds, South Beach is just 180 metres from the cottage.

    For walks along the Jurassic Coast, loop on to the South West Coast Path from Studland Bay and head down to Swanage.

    The ruins of Corfe Castle are just a 10-minute drive inland. You'll have free entry during opening hours here and at other National Trust places for the duration of your stay.
