    Everything! The gardens were beautiful and the views were amazing. The artwork and artefacts were exceptional. We particularly loved the collection of shells. We had some lovely meals sat at the big round table. The shower was fabulous and the house was warm, the beds were super comfortable. The location was brilliant - a few minutes walk down into town and a 10 minute drive to Knoll beach. Absolutely perfect for a family holiday with 4 kids and a dog!

    This really is a stunning caravan thanks to the amazing view of Swanage bay. The caravan was spotlessly clean and well equipped in the kitchen area. The beds were comfortable and we also used the bed settee in the lounge which was easy to put up. We enjoyed walking into Swanage - the walk back up the hill was a calorie burner but perfect for taking in the view. I would highly recommend this caravan. We were a family of 4 including a pre teen and older teenager and we all loved it!

    The views were beautiful and the little homely touches were wonderful. My toddler loved the books and Teddy bears in the children's room.
