That's the pleasure of staying at Capstone. This spacious Edwardian holiday house in Swanage sleeps 8 in four bedrooms, with the sandy beach, town centre and heritage railway all within a few minutes’ walk. For families or friends who want a traditional Dorset seaside holiday with plenty of freedom to do their own thing, it's a great find. Capstone has the proportions and relaxed feel of a proper family home. The sitting room has enough seating for everyone, a Smart TV and a log-effect fire for cooler evenings. Next door, the dining table seats up to 10, leaving room for extra dishes, drinks and the inevitable board game after supper. A well-equipped kitchen lets everyone cook together, and a light-filled conservatory gives a place to escape with a coffee and a book. The four bedrooms occupy the first and second floors. Two can be arranged with king-size or twin beds, giving families and mixed groups useful flexibility, while the other rooms have king and superking beds. A family bathroom, separate wet room and additional WCs help keep mornings moving, although guests should be comfortable with stairs. Outside, there's a small patio with a picnic table and, unusually handy for central Swanage, two private parking spaces. The real attraction is how much is within walking distance. Spend the morning on Swanage Beach, wander along the Victorian pier, browse the independent shops, or choose a pub for dinner, all without worrying about driving home. The Swanage Railway offers a memorable sightseeing trip to Corfe Castle, while the Purbeck Hills, Old Harry Rocks, and the South West Coast Path offer some of Dorset's finest coastal walking. When everyone returns sandy, hungry, and ready for a quiet evening, Capstone has plenty of room to settle in and unwind in comfort. ## Facilities - **Accessibility:** Bedrooms on first and second floors; multiple flights of stairs. - **WiFi:** Provided. - **Dining Room:** Dining table seats 10. - **Sitting Room:** Sofa seating for 8 plus a separate conservatory with seating. - **TV and Music Facilities:** Smart TV and DVD player. - **Kitchen:** Electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washer and tumble dryer. - **Bedrooms:** 4 rooms sleeping up to 8 guests.
