    “This was our fourth stay at the Buccaneer.”

    When we arrived there were a few cleanliness issues, the coffee table was very dirty, it clearly hadn’t been cleaned, and there was dust on the tv unit. The whole cottage really needs a deep clean. The carpets are stained. The temperature knob on the shower, in the en suite bathroom on the ground floor has either broken or been set in one position, which means you cannot alter the temperature up or down. We found the temperature too cool. Although we were very disappointed by these issues, ...

    When we arrived there were a few cleanliness issues, the coffee table was very dirty, it clearly hadn’t been cleaned, and there was dust on the tv unit. The whole cottage really needs a deep clean. The carpets are stained. The temperature knob on the shower, in the en suite bathroom on the ground floor has either broken or been set in one position, which means you cannot alter the temperature up or down. We found the temperature too cool. Although we were very disappointed by these issues, we intend to book the cottage again, this is due to the perfect location that it has.

The property

Located directly beside the picturesque Old Harbour close to Brewers Quay in Weymouth is Buccaneer Cottage, a wonderful holiday home for a big family or a group of friends.

The property has excellent views of the harbour allowing you to relax in the comfort of your armchair and watch the ever-changing scene.

Fishing boats and luxury yachts pass right in front of you to find their moorings or to pass under the old town bridge which lifts and falls to allow yachts to enter the inner marina.

Hope Square, where you will find a variety of restaurants and tea rooms is only a very short stroll away.

The main beach with its golden sands and shallow waters is within easy walking distance or you may choose to take the charming row boat ferry and cross the harbour to the beach directly.

The town centre with its array of high street shops, nine screen cinema are also just a short walk along the harbour and across the town bridge.

Within a five-minute walk you can reach Newton's Cove, a small sheltered beauty spot with rock pools ideal for children to explore and the adjacent Nothe Fort gardens; the perfect location for a picnic.

Is an ideal venue for a family get together, especially if you want to include your pets.

What is there to not enjoy when you are situated right on Weymouth's beautiful harbourside with stunning views from all windows and have numerous first-class eating establishments all within easy walking distance.

About the location

BREWERS QUAY HARBOUR

Dorchester 8.7 miles; West Lulworth 15.8 miles

Brewers Quay is the old Victorian brewery situated at the heart of the harbour, in Weymouth, Dorset. Much of the grade II listed complex and surrounding brewery buildings date from the late 1800 early 1900’s and many have stones inlaid commemorating their construction year. This area is now a popular destination with many restaurants, café and bars, creating a vibrant culture, where you can relax with a drink and watch the world go by. Tucked away down the harbourside streets, you will find original Tudor harbour buildings, estimated to have been built in 1600 and well worth a visit, with a very interesting history to share. You will also find the Weymouth Museum, with some incredible exhibitions, and the harbour is also home to the lifting bridge, where you can watch the luxury yachts head out to sea, and then walk over the bridge to the town's winding streets of boutique shops and the seafront esplanade and beach. There is more to this seaside town than meets the eye; Brewers Quay is a much-loved holiday destination in Weymouth!
