“2nd time in the apartment,it is an excellent base for a weymouth vacation.”

Lovely to just sit either on the balcony or through the sitting room window and watch the working fishing boats. Apartment and public areas spotlessly clean,close to bars and restaurants.

“Stayed here a few times now.”

Doesn’t disappoint on any level and great value for money. The garage doesn’t get any bigger though!

“Great holiday as usual few issues with the fridge freezing everything, but was soon sorted as best they could.”

That didn't stop us enjoying the accommodation Spacious apartment with an astounding view of the harbour. 2nd time this year and looking to book again.

“Property was as listed, very clean, modern, well equipped and tidy.”

The balcony is very small with a partial view, showing a small part of the harbour. Take note of the message regarding the parking space, it is horrendous to get in and out of if you have anything more than a really small car. The property backs on to a carpark which we used for the final two days, as it was less stressful. The location is generally good as it has a small shopping centre and plenty of restaurants around. There was some noise around, however it was the time of the European football. I did witness early morning theft of alcohol from the supermarket, they were in and out before the shop assistants could do anything. There is easy access to the south coast region by car.

“A wonderful apartment, great styling and perfect location.”

Excellent views and walking distance to great restaurants.

“This is the 3rd property I this block we stayed.”

We would like coat hooks for coats in lobby and more coat hangers in wardrobes. Scissors.

Patricia April 2024

“The description of the car park although accurate didn't really explain the problem which is the access drive to the spaces and the difficulty for large vehicles to negotiate the dog leg out of the car park.”

We spent 20 minutes trying to get our car out of the car park having got in without too much trouble. It was very stressful

Sue October 2023

“Nice appartment, but marks on wall in lounge could do with touching up as they don’t look good in what is otherwise an attractively furnished appartment.”

Sinks in both bathrooms are ridiculously small and tap gets in the way. Also could do with more drawer space in bedrooms—not everything gets hung up! I know it was mentioned about parking, but even with small car it would be difficult to park. Space 6 was in the far corner and if it had been full would have been virtually impossible to either reverse in or reverse out.

“An enjoyable stay once again everything you need in a lovely apartment which have stunning views over the harbour.”

- Tracy, September 2023
Anne August 2023

“Lovely apartment, clean, spacious and had a lovely view from the balcony looking out over the harbour.”

. Close to beach, shops and restaurants. My two children and l had a lovely week and would definitely recommend a stay at this apartment.

- Anne, August 2023
Amanda August 2023

“Lovely apartment.”

As in information the parking was a nightmare, and no other cheap alternatives nearby. Could have done with more mugs, spare towels. Pillows were uncomfortable.

- Amanda, August 2023

“A few more dishes and cutlery would have been useful to make best use of dishwasher.”

Jacqueline April 2023

“Thought given to layout and furnishings (although 6 mugs for 4 adults was a bit mean?”

). An extremely comfortable, well placed and well maintained property for the Marina and town away from noise. Unless you count the little train that tours around the town from the sea front. Comfortable beds, nice showers and proper dinning chairs. We were even offered a linen change half way through our stay as the cleaning ladies are often around. Parking at Brittania no problem at all and there was an EV charger across the road. We were so relaxed with the wonderful sitting room view it was hard to come away. Booked for a return visit whilst we were there.

Joanna March 2023

“We had a wonderful stay,your penthouse is stunning,we loved it.”

We had everything you could possibly need,everywhere was spotless & the decor was fabulous. Mum loved the balcony to sit out on & read a book. We will be booking again !

- Joanna, March 2023
Robert October 2022

“Excellent property, apartment was spotless, tastefully decorated and furnished and had everything we needed.”

My wife says that the apartment is amazing!. Location is excellent, close to the harbour and bars, restaurants and shops. Car parking in allocated space is a bit tight so used the link for Brittania parking to book a week season ticket for £25, car park 2 minutes from property and safe and secure. Would definitely return next time in Weymouth.

- Robert, October 2022
Margaret October 2022

“A lovely apartment in an excellent location for us (retired couple) - walking distance of shops, restaurants, harbour and the promenade.”

Very comfortable and well equipped, with a small balcony to sit on and watch the boats in the harbour. An added bonus was having a designated car parking space in a secure garage. Luckily we have a small car because, as stated clearly in the description, it was a very tight turn to get into the space! Our main disappointments were that there were no chest of drawers to put underwear, jumpers etc and the washbasins in both the bathrooms were ridiculously small. even for just washing your hands. We felt the plush lined boxes and drawers in the bedroom were a bit 'twee' and not very useful. There was a good number of coathangers in the wardrobes and the kitchen had everything one would need - and more. We would be happy to return there.

- Margaret, October 2022
Linda September 2022

“Property was beautiful and well maintained and very comfortable.”

Good central location. However, getting in and out of the car park was very challenging, but we were forewarned!!! Unfortunately one guest had a much larger car than the garage was designed for which made manoeuvring even more challenging. Would not rebook due to the car parking problem.

- Linda, September 2022
Lyn August 2022

“An excellent modern, comfortable apartment with charming views over the harbour.”

Parking quite tight, but would certainly return. An excellent holiday base.

- Lyn, August 2022
Alan March 2022

“Thank you for a wonderful week in your apartment, the apartment was better than described and could not fault it at all, so convenient for the town the balcony was fabulous we enjoyed a few afternoons there with a glass of wine or 2, once again a lovely week and will definitely return.”

- Alan, March 2022
Graham November 2021

“As you know, parking is difficult, Merc A class just fitted, because only 2 cars in garage.”

Large towel rails would be essential, we used drier rack. Smallest sinks in any cottage we have ever stayed in! Wet shaving equals wet floor. A 5 foot bed would be nice, but 4'6" was comfortable. Had to buy a pyrex dish to use in the microwave. Arrival instructions need up dating, key fob on door not on table, wasted 15mins searching and ringing office.

- Graham, November 2021
Jayne September 2021

“Lovely apartment in an excellent location”

- Jayne, September 2021
Sharon September 2021

“A really comfortable apartment, very well equipped, quiet location and close town and beach, and the balcony was great for breakfast and evening drinks.”

The on-site parking is definitely only for small cars and most visitors won't be able to use it, so the permit is valuable. It would be good to have some deep cereal bowls as the shallow soup bowls aren't so good for cereal! Also was very disappointed by the lack of recycling facilities. I realise this may be the responsibility of the council, but it feels very outdated that there was nothing available. Would definitely recommend this as a place to stay.

- Sharon, September 2021
Cathy August 2021

“Really amazing accommodation.”

Loved the quality of furnishings and how clean it was. The view was brilliant, beds comfortable and it was quiet despite being in the heart of Weymouth. Loved it

- Cathy, August 2021
Lisa August 2021

“A great apartment with a lovely harbour view, centrally located and within easy walking distance of shops (there is a Tesco Metro within a few minutes' walk), restaurants and the beach.”

It looked exactly as it does on the website and was very clean. We chose the apartment for accessibility issues. It was great to have the living space on one floor, a walk in shower and lift access. It was in a quiet location, despite being so close to the centre of the town. The apartment is well equipped but you do need to bring or buy things like dishwasher tablets and toilet rolls (as they supplied 2 of each for a weeks' stay). For the price we paid, I would expect for these to be included. Personally, I would prefer a more toned-down décor with practical furnishings and accessories. It's very blingy!!! The only real negative was the on-site parking...when they warn you that your car needs to be within certain dimensions, they mean it! Mine was slightly longer and it took me a few days to work out how to get in and out without too many problems! There is a free parking permit for another car park, but it was important for us to be able to park on-site.

- Lisa, August 2021
Christine July 2021

“We all loved this Penthouse apartment.”

It is in a great location with lovely views from the Balcony and Lounge across the Harbour. It was a bonus to have underground parking for the car, as the bars, restaurant's, beach and shops were only a few minutes walk. The apartment was spotlessly clean with a well equipped kitchen. The decor was quite striking with large unusual mirrors, lamps clocks and pictures which all went so well together. There was a brilliant welcome folder which had the car park pass in with so much information about the apartment, local area and recommending restaurant's, bars and places of interest. All in all we had a great holiday and i would certainly recommend this Penthouse Apartment and would love to stay there again in the near future.

- Christine, July 2021
Gita July 2021

“Positives: Excellent apartment in the heart of Weymouth harbour.”

Clean, large and modern. It felt very much a holiday apartment and was quiet, safe with good security. Negative: the bed in the master bedroom was a double and not a king size (as listed). This did cause us a problem, as we had a three year old sharing a bed with her parents. There wasn’t a full inventory of available appliances so we bought along an iron and a hairdryer (which the property did have). Also, it was not made clear that the parking permit allowed us to park a lot nearer than Nothe car park (which was flagged on the website but not the other closer site). However all in all, it was a great apartment.

- Gita, July 2021
Andrew June 2021

“A lovely apartment very posh.”

. car park very small but managed to park there.. a bit disappointed when leaving having to take the bed linen off as instructed

- Andrew, June 2021
Charmayne June 2021

“At the time of booking, it was the most expensive apartment.”

It was in a great location and was very comfortable and everything within the apartment met out expectations. It stated that it had a car parking place in the garage and that there was a permit for a local car park. As we took two cars this was ideal, upon arrival we found out that there was no parking space in the garage for this penthouse apartment.

- Charmayne, June 2021
Mike May 2021

“Apartment was excellent with good view of the harbour.”

Well equipped but some basics missing eg kitchen towels, glass cleaner, tea towels We understood that there was underground parking but could not find a space for Appt 6 so used the Nothe Car Park 10 mins away. Bed very comfortable and shower good. All very clean and couldn’t hear any noise from other apartments. Easy walk to shops, bars, restaurants and the beach. All in all a perfect holiday base

- Mike, May 2021

There is no parking provision in the garage for this apartment, there is a parking permit provided for a nearby public car park. Thank you for the feedback. Property Owner
