    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, 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. Or for the ruins of Corfe Castle, drive just 10 minutes inland. 

    Layout 

    Ground floor: Kitchen, sitting room/dining room, three bedrooms (1 double and 2 twins) and bathroom with shower over bath.

    Floor plan

    Outside space

    The cottage has a large garden which is mainly lawn and a veranda with full sea views.
