Stayed Sep 13, 2025Lovely character property in a great location. A home from home really.A couple of small recommendations; a non slip mat in the bath and a bin in the bathroom would be useful.As the property allows a dog, we thought the court yard would be enclosed but found that the steps led straight out onto the road. This should be mentioned in the description.

Stayed Aug 30, 2025It's a very nice cottage, but I would have liked to have been informed that the property is over three floors and the bathroom is on the ground floor, my wife and I are both pensioners and it was not very convenient coming down stairs in the middle of the night

Stayed Jul 26, 2025We had a very happy two weeks in Rumpus Cottage.We could check in early which was really good and the cottage was ideal for us being within a short walk to Swanage and area.Fully equipped for a self catering holiday.The host Caroline was very friendly and helpful.

Stayed Aug 10, 2024A lovely property in a nice quiet area of Swanage, not too far from the centre. Enjoyed staying in a cottage for the first time and bringing my baby son for his first visit to Swanage. The cottage has a lovely kitchen, bathroom and outside seating area to enjoy a morning coffee. Probably not suitable if you have mobility issues due to steep steps to the middle floor and master bedroom on the top floor. The cottage is nicely decorated and extremely clean and tidy, with all the amenities you would need. If making use of the travel cot, make sure to bring bedding and a mattress as this wasn't provided. This wasn't too much of an issue though and we made do. Our little boy seemed to love his first UK staycation. Would very much recommend this property and would stop here again.

Stayed Aug 5, 2023We had a lovely stay at Caroline's home and found the location to be very convenient. The check in was easy and the cottage was ready for relaxation and/or sleep on arrival. Information was provided via email and written when we arrived..

Stayed Aug 20, 2022Property is well described and well kitted out with everything you need. The bathroom does suffer with condensation issues and parking outside the property is a lottery so once parked we didn’t use the car all week and used the very good bus service instead to get around. Not sure we’d visit Swanage again as not our type of holiday destination but would definitely go back to surrounding areas

Stayed Jul 23, 2022The cottage was lovely and clean and had a rustic charm which was lovely, when we arrived towels were laid out on the double bed and the beds are extremely comfortable . The bedrooms are very spacious with plenty of hangers and wardrobes and hanging rails. The cottage is conveniently located to all amenities' within an 8 minute walk. The black swan serves amazing meals although you do need to book in advance, there is an Italian restaurant which serves good food, although limited choice. Convenience stores are available within the town and one close to the cottage. We would definitely stay at the cottage again and Caroline supplied all the information prior to our stay, as well as being friendly, extremely helpful and courteous. Thankyou so much Caroline for providing us with such a lovely base which helped to make our holiday so relaxing, enjoyable and being able to explore Swanage, surrounding areas and the wonderful beaches.
