Set in a peaceful residential spot just moments from the seafront, it’s an ideal base for couples, friends, or families with older children looking to unwind and explore the Jurassic Coast.
🛏 Thoughtfully Designed Over Three Floors
Top Floor: A serene kingsize bedroom with far‑reaching views across the bay, complete with its own ensuite shower room and bath.
Middle Floor: An open‑plan lounge, dining area, and fully equipped kitchen — the social heart of the home, ideal for relaxed breakfasts, cosy evenings, and planning tomorrow’s adventures.
Ground Floor: A second kingsize bedroom with a separate modern shower room, offering privacy and comfort for multi‑generational stays or two couples travelling together.
⚠️ Suitability Note
The bedrooms are located on separate floors, and the property includes multiple internal staircases. For this reason, 2 The Downs may not be suitable for young children or guests who prefer bedrooms on the same level.
🌅 Coastal Views & Peaceful Surroundings
Large windows frame the ever‑changing colours of Swanage Bay, creating a calm, uplifting atmosphere throughout the house. Whether you’re enjoying a morning coffee or winding down after a day on the beach, the views are a constant reminder that the sea is just moments away.
🚶♂️ Close to the Seafront, Pier & Town
- A short downhill stroll brings you to:
- Swanage’s sandy beach
- The historic pier
- Independent shops, cafés, and restaurants
- Coastal paths and boat trips
Please note: The Downs is set on a hill, so the walk back is steep and may not be suitable for guests with limited mobility.
🌿 A Relaxing Retreat by the Sea
