Property code: OC-WY455

Set back from the bustling seaside town of Weymouth, this property is the perfect coastal retreat for couples seeking a quiet setting for their staycation. Weymouth is renowned for its golden, sandy beaches and a pretty harbour, so you’ll soon lose yourself strolling along the shoreline or admiring the gently bobbing boats. Grab a bite to eat in a welcoming restaurant or pick up takeaway fish and chips, refuelling after a busy day exploring Nothe Court and the numerous other attractions nearby. Sandsfoot Castle and Gardens is an excellent picnic spot, but you’ll also have plenty of walking opportunities to admire the stunning views from the cliff tops. Dorchester is 8 miles away, the birthplace of author Thomas Hardy and home to a variety of museums such as the Keep Military Museum and Dorset Museum. It is an excellent destination for discovering local history and embracing some retail therapy.

Your single-level annexe may be small, but it is elegantly styled and equipped with lots of home comforts, including a welcome pack to help you get settled. Laid out in a quirky ‘L’ shape, the property is open-plan with a kitchen at one end complete with a handy dining space for cosy suppers. Natural light pours in through the French doors on sunny mornings, making that first coffee of the day all the more special. Sink into the sofa to chat about your daily plans, and in the evening the TV, board games and bookshelves are ideal for entertaining. There’s a double bed tucked away in the corner for a restful night’s sleep, and completing the property is a useful en-suite shower room with WC, accessed via a sliding door.

Outside, the garden is spacious and provides an alternative choice for dining and al fresco drinks in the sunshine.

One of the main reasons our holiday in Dorset was so nice was the lovely welcoming accommodation this cottage provided. It was spotlessly clean, the rooms were bright and airy and the facilities, including the sunny outside area and location to the main bus stops were excellent. We will definitely hope to stay there again.
