About this property

Veronica Cottage, Swanage, Dorset

  • In association with Trinity House, we are proud to present Veronica Cottage at Anvil Point Lighthouse.

    Veronica Cottage sleeps six guests and is one of two holiday cottages at the lighthouse, situated within the grounds of Durlston Country Park, approximately two miles up the hill from Swanage town centre, which offers a variety of shops, restaurants, pubs and other facilities. As you turn off the main road and begin your "off the beaten track" path to your cosy accommodation, you'll feel like you've just stepped off the treadmill of your busy life; and if you arrive after dark, there's nothing like the welcome of a lighthouse beam to greet you!

    Perfect year round; from enjoying summer sun on the nearby beaches, to snuggling up to witness amazing storms in the colder months; indeed many of our guests feel a little cheated if the weather has been too calm! If you're looking for a holiday with a difference; a complete break from the metropolis; a breath of fresh air and countless coastal walking opportunities, then look no further.

    Also on this site is Rowena Cottage, sleeping five guests.

    Additional Information:
    Please be aware that the water in this cottage is provided by a borehole and is therefore not suitable for drinking either hot or cold. Bottled water will be provided.
    There is no fog horn at this site.
    A travel cot and highchair are available on request.

    Guests are reminded they are renting a heritage building, therefore certain features such as steps, stairs and floor levels may not comply with that of a modern building. As such, we would advise guests to acquaint themselves with the premises on arrival and exercise caution accordingly.
    Sorry, no barbecues, fireworks, drones or remote controlled flying equipment are permitted.
    Access roads to the lighthouse site are narrow with limited passing places and, dependent on the season and site, there is the possibility of overhanging vegetation due to cutting restrictions during bird breeding seasons or other environmental reasons.
    Guests should be aware that the lighthouses and equipment need regular and sometimes emergency maintenance. Therefore visits by maintenance staff may occur at any time during the year. However, staff will do their best to ensure guest privacy at all times.
    Sorry, charging of electric cars is not permitted.
