Located only 50m. from the town's sandy beach, these two apartments are ideally placed to enjoy swimming, diving and water-sports, or to enjoy the pubs and restaurants and shops of Swanage. Moreover, they are only 500m. from the Bus Station and Steam Railway, which will take you to mediaeval Corfe Castle or to Studland (fine mediaeval church) and the chain ferry at the mouth of Poole Harbour. Much of the area is owned by the National Trust and offers spectacular coastal and country walks and fine sandy beaches. A new museum exploring this Jurassic Coast opens in 2012 in a landscape celebrated by the writer Thomas Hardy a century ago and quite unspoiled even now. No. 5 Arcade Terrace is a ground-floor apartment with a sun-lounge looking out upon an enclosed flower garden (photo at top of page). Sorry no pets and no smoking!
