Waterfront vacation rentals in Purbeck District

Great flat. Very clean and welcoming. Close to local restaurants and lovely walks along the quay. Bonus was a secure place to leave our bikes!

We had a lovely stay at Nikki’s beautiful apartment.We couldn’t have asked for a better location. The apartment is very well equipped and beautiful decorated. Thank you for a lovely stay Nikki!

James is a lovely host, excellent and clear communication. The flat is perfect base to explore the local area. We had a lovely holiday!

What a wonderful place, it was light, airy and clean with beautiful views from both sides of the apartment. We especially enjoyed having breakfast watching the goings-on in the harbour through the kitchen window. Plenty of excellent cafes and beautiful walks to go on nearby, we would highly recommend this apartment.

Yet another great stay at this gorgeous little home from home Airbnb. Many thanks to the amazing Graham & Linda. Whom this time were even more accommodating by helping me out above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you!

Lovely apartment. Everything we needed. Comfortable. Loved the balcony as it gave an unhindered outlook to the bay, which we love and have visited for many years. Daughter and family in flat below so gave us a lovely family holiday. Lovely Sunday lunch at the Albion though need to make sure you have the Sunday roast menu which they forgot to give us!! All in all a great stay. Many thanks. Mike and Lecky Allwood.

Gorgeous apartment, pristine and was well equipped. Loved the the quirky little features, such as the radiogram. My son enjoyed looking out to sea with the telescope! Clear check in instructions and parking details were sent by the host prior to arrival. Location is perfect, right next to the beach and a short walking distance to the harbour and town centre. Thank you Rachel (and for the yummy cake and bottle of fizz!) we had a great stay and will definitely be back!

What an amazing place for a solo bank holiday weekend to reset and recharge! Terry’s apartment was perfectly located and had everything I needed. Train station close by and right next to the beach for those early morning dips and lots of amazing hikes and running routes nearby. I recommend The Smugglers Inn for a lovely Sunday Roast, and it’s right on the coastal path which is a stunning hike. There’s a lovely cafe and local convenience store for essentials right on the doorstep of the apartment - and the balcony is a prime spot for a coffee, taking in the waves and watching the world go by. Being able to hear the waves through the windows in the apartment was pretty special! A great stay and a super friendly and communicative host. Thank you Terry!

Lovely house with the added bonus of a parking space. The house was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. It was very well stocked with everything you could want and it's a very easy short walk to the beach. I absolutely would recommend this.

We were absolutely delighted with our stay in the Nook. Such a beautiful setting and cosy, comfortable accommodation, with everything we could possibly need. The bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed a relaxing soak in the bath, followed by a hot drink in front of the log fire. I note the quality of the decor and crockery etc. we also very much enjoyed a walk around the garden. Such an idyllic location. Special thanks to Jennifer for offering such a wonderful experience.

This is a beautiful home in a great location: Lymington town a short walk one way, lovely walks along the sea wall the other way and out front all the comings and goings of the estuary. The garden is a delight and all the amenities on the ground floor meant my elderly mother could happily visit for the afternoon. The first floor sitting room is very comfortable and stylish. Corrine was most helpful, replying promptly to various queries and ensured things were arranged well.

A beautiful place in a perfect location next to the beach in Lyme Regis. Tristan was a great host and we would couldn’t recommend highly enough.

I have just enjoyed a four night stay at Grey Joy. A beautifully presented and perfectly located cosy house. It has everything you need including a lovely outside space. Grey Joy is a few foot steps from Chesil beach and next door to The Cove pub. I could not have been happier with this little Air B&B

Lovely warm welcome to me and my friends .The location is super , right get next to the water with a slipway to launch canoes and paddle boards , yet a 5minute walk into town . Enjoyed the hot tub in the evening. The Chalet was very spacious and well appointed . Great for few days away with friends , we would book again .

We had such a wonderful time. The house is quiet and peaceful with beautiful views of the garden and river beyond. The house is spotless with a lovely, homely feel. We had everything we needed for our stay. Sara was very responsive before our trip and came to say hello on arrival. She had some good tips for the local area and we knew we could approach her for anything if we needed. That said, we were left alone for the trip (except for when some lounger cushions were brought over - thank you!!). The area is stunning with some fabulous walks - we are hoping to come again and will be sure to recommend it.

Carl was an extremely friendly host and communication was excellent. He even asked what milk we drank. His place was absolutely beautiful, so clean and tidy. Had everything we needed for our stay and he even allowed us due to not needing to get into his garage an extra parking space. The surrounding area is beautiful, safe and is only a short stroll to the beach. Highly recommend staying here.

We had a great stay. The flat was as described and well set up for a toddler. There were even toys to play with.

The flat was spacious and very well equipped. We overlooked the harbour and had exceptionally easy access to the beaches and coast path in both directions. We liked having a dedicated parking space; this was very close to the flat which made unloading easy. West Bay is very pretty so there were many photographic opportunities. The people living locally were very friendly. There's a footpath to Bridport which made a walk into the town on Market Day very easy. Perfect for us!

Julie was a fantastic host, she was very responsive and helpful. The flat was lovely, it was in a great central location and was well equipped, homely and pristine. There were thoughtful touches such as the welcome hamper and a useful parking permit. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or to return again.

A really great find. Swanage is a beautiful seaside town and this apartment is superbly located to explore the beach and shops. It is beautifully furnished with lots of great facilities. The host was very helpful and easy to contact. Would definitely recommend.

My mother absolutely loved the property. Fantastic location

Perfect location! Amazing seaside views, really enjoyed watching the waves and people watching from the comfort of the sofa/bedroom. Kitchen well stocked and lovely touch of bread, milk, jam and biscuits for breakfast the next day. The sofa bed was really comfy for our two children, and plenty of space for our family of four. Super clear instructions to enter, and the parking permit was a huge plus! Really enjoyed our stay!

Great little place, perfect location, lovely waking up to and falling asleep to the sound of the river. Mike was very responsive and helpful, providing clear instructions for everything. Would definitely recommend

lovely apartment, with a big balcony with fabulous views over the sea. wonderful location far enough away from Bournemouth but with plenty of local stuff to do: bar on the beach, great local takeaways. long walks along the beach.
