We were a party of 5 adults and 2 children visiting swanage for 1 week for the first time. We booked last minute and were just amazed at how lucky we were to stumble across this little gem. Sunlight house is a charming property full of character, beautifully decorated to give a cosy warm feel. It is located just a few mins away from the beach up a steep hill (good exercise after eating mountains of ice cream at Baboos). 2 of the rooms have views of the beach. The sheer number of amazing books on display was fantastic. There were also loads of DVDs and a really good selection of family board games. The bathroom on the middle floor was gorgeous. The rooms are a good size. I've never been to a holiday letting where the host provides a good amount of dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid and toilet roll - so thoughtful. There were also very kind gestures like some complimentary ginger biscuits, apricot jam and 2 pints of milk to help us settle in. It was very much appreciated. It seems the property was the childhood family home of one of the owners and this was beautifully captured in the presentation of the house. The hosts were also responsive to our messages and any needs/requests made. Swanage is a fabulous place to visit. There's so much to do! We very much enjoyed coastal walks, visiting durlston country park, Corfe castle, old Harry rocks and also driving to Kimmeridge bay to look at the amazing fossils. Absolutely wonderful holiday! Thank you Jurassic coast holiday homes.

We had the most amazing week at Sunlight House. The house is beautiful and really well set up. The beds are super comfortable and it has all the home comforts you need including a really well stocked kitchen. It's a short walk to the beach and to all the shops and cafes so really convenient. It really feels like a home from home - lots of great books to read and pictures to look at if that's your thing and a lovely little garden and terrace for sitting out in the evenings. The area is fab with so much to see and do. Jurassic Coast Holiday Homes were so helpful and great to deal with and we were really happy with every aspect of our stay. Couldn't ask for more! Hugely recommended.

This is a large, nicely equipped and furnished family home that looks as if it has been left as it was when privately occupied - with bookshelves full of interesting books and other homely features including a piano. We used it both for volunteers working at Swanage Jazz Festival and for some visiting musicians. They loved it for its homely character - so much nicer than a bland hotel. It also sleeps up to 7 so is a good size. The only slight drawback is location and parking. It's on a steep road overlooking Swanage. Parking is on street and may not be available directly outside and it's a 9 minute walk to town on foot. But that aside it is an excellent property and we have already booked it for next year.

Great place to stay with family and only a 5 minute walk downhill to the beach and town centre.
