Greysteps is the best accommodation in every respect in which we have spent our Swanage holidays during a period of 60 years. Our hosts have a very genuine understanding of hospitality and are so kind. The apartment is impeccably clean, well equipped and furnished and ideally located between both ends of Swanage town. The beds are really comfy, a TRead moreV with loads of apps and a washing machine in which to rinse towels after days on the beach.
