Property code: OC-WY455

This cute, coastal bolthole for two sits on the outskirts of Weymouth, 3 miles from its historic harbour and sandy beach. The property is a great base for those wishing to explore the spectacular Jurassic Coast, with nearby highlights including West Bay (16 miles) and Durdle Door (14 miles). After a day of exploring this stunning part of Dorset, return to your charming retreat for an al fresco meal, followed by a movie night on the sofa.

The home-away-from-home is set across one level and is decorated in a contemporary style, with plenty of creature comforts to make your stay as relaxed as possible. The open-plan property has an L-shaped layout, with a bright, well-equipped kitchen/diner at one end for enjoying romantic dinners for two, and a comfortable lounge area for snuggling up and watching a film on the Smart TV. Tucked away in one corner is a sumptuous double bed with an en-suite shower room. Outside, from the dining area, French doors open onto an enclosed patio garden with a choice of furniture, perfect for morning cuppas and al fresco evening meals.

Weymouth boasts a long, sandy beach with shallow waters for bathing. After a day at the beach, head into the town centre (2.5 miles), to dine in one of the many seafood restaurants or cosy pubs. History enthusiasts will be fascinated on a visit to the underground passages of Nothe Fort (4 miles), and wildlife lovers must make time to visit RSPB Radipole Lake or RSPB Lodmoor (both within 3.5 miles). Heading inland, the pretty market town of Dorchester (6 miles) makes a lovely day out, with its gorgeous architecture, Roman ruins, museums, open-air markets, and riverside walks.

A very enjoyable holiday. Away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre whilst being within easy reach either by bus or walking and also Dorchester by bus. Very well equipped. My second visit and would come again next time I take another break in this area.
