Stayed Aug 3, 2024Beautiful little studio, perfect for our 4 day stay. Amazing views across Swanage bay and close to town, albeit a hilly walk back up. Comfy bed, tasteful seaside decor, large sofa and cute kitchenette. The bistro set and fairy lights outside were a sweet touch. Immaculately clean and well organised with thoughtful touches such as milk in the fridge on arrival. We'd gladly stay here again!

Stayed Jun 22, 2023Such a lovely place to stay with only a short walk to the beach. Every little detail in the apartment was obviously thought about and the decor just gave a wonderful sense of calm in line with a short break by the beach. Communication with the owner was great - I can't recommend highly enough!

Stayed May 15, 2026Such a lovely stay with my dog. Everything was excellent. The design of the studio apartment was very well done and to a high quality standard. It was very comfortable and a relaxing to stay. Very clean. Great tv, shower and underfloor heating. Great to have a parking space and private entrance at the side of the house/apartment. Lovely location - yes it is very hilly but good exercise and lovely views. The host, Ros, was very helpful and responsive when needed. Thank you for a lovely stay. Highly recommended.

Stayed Jul 18, 2025Perfect location for Swanage and surrounding area, I loved the short walk to the country park and quietness of the location. The property is spacious and comfortable and fitted to an excellent standard. Most importantly it was spotlessly clean. Ros gave detailed instructions about getting there, where to park etc. which all added to a great experience. Would not hesitate to return again. Thank you!

Stayed Apr 16, 2025Lovely few days staying at Drummond Lodge. Great location only 10-15 minute walk into town and beach as long as you dont mind a steep walk back. Only a few minutes from Durlston Park which was great as we came with our dog. Easy access to the property and onsite parking very useful. Very clean and comfortable. Great shower and modern bathroom. Would recommend

Stayed Apr 10, 2025This is our second time staying at Drummond Base. It's an excellent spot with easy access to coastal walks and just up the road from Swanage centre. The accommodation has all the amenities you could need and felt like we had our own private space.The host was quick to respond and very lovely. Couldn't have asked for a better stay!

Stayed Dec 24, 2024The property was in a great location near to the beach, coastline and town, so ideal for walking. The property was well thought out, set up beautifully and equipped well, so well I cooked my Christmas dinner in the kitchenette. For a single, female traveller I felt safe and secure too, which is very important to me. Ros, the property manager went above and beyond with providing a small Christmas tree and the milk in the fridge on arrival is always appreciated. I would certainly recommend family, friends and work colleagues to this property and look forward to returning again when I can. Thank you so much.

Stayed Oct 14, 2024I loved this little studio flat. It was clean, quiet, and modern. There is no cooker but there is a multi use microwave. Very comfortable bed and great sized smart tv. No view from inside the property but go outside and you get to see most of Swanage and the bay. Beautiful scene at night. Just a warning if you do not drive. It is situated at the top of a very steep hill.It was also nice to find a pint of milk in the fridge as I had forgotten to get some!
