A stairgate is installed to the top of the stairs, whilst a travel cot and highchair can be requested; guests are asked to bring their own bedding for the cot. Polly's Folly is well-positioned to explore Dorset's coastline. Note: Check-in from 4pm, check-out by 10am. Note: Guests are welcome to use the logs in the wood store outside the patio doors for the woodburning stove.
Amenities: Central heating. Electric oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, hairdryer. Smart TV, WiFi, selection of games. Fuel and power inc. in rent. Bed linen and towels inc. in rent. Stairgate installed to the top of the stairs, whilst a travel cot and highchair are available upon request; guests are asked to bring their own bedding for the cot. Roadside parking available on a first-come, first-serve basis. South facing, rear, multi-level garden with patio, terrace and furniture. Sorry, no pets and no smoking. Shop and pub 0.1 miles, beach 0.8 miles. Note: Check-in from 4pm, check-out by 10am. Note: Guests are welcome to use the logs in the wood store outside the patio doors for the woodburning stove
Region: Explore the fossils and stunning beaches of Dorset’s Jurassic Coast, visit historic Sherborne and Shaftesbury, or enjoy the footpaths, country lanes and thatched-roof pubs Dorset offers.
Town: Swanage is a small, family-friendly beach town on the renowned Isle of Purbeck, at the eastern extremity of Dorset's renowned Jurassic Coast. Swanage is arguably best known for its lovely, gently sloping golden sands. The small town is well renowned for its annual jazz festival, which is held in July, and for its abundance of stores, fine taverns, and restaurants, some of which specialise in locally caught seafood. The charming Victorian wooden pier is a lovely spot to promenade, go fishing, or just sit and take in the sights. It's also a popular starting point for divers. Regular vintage steam engine excursions transport tourists on a charming 6-mile journey, chugging through gorgeous countryside to stop just beyond the romantic ruin of Corfe Castle, from the town's terminal on the historic Swanage Railway.
