Guests say
Guests have consistently praised the property for its spaciousness, comfort, and cleanliness. The garden and welcome packs were particularly appreciated, enhancing the overall experience. The property's location in Weymouth is convenient for beach access and local amenities. While minor maintenance issues were noted, they did not detract significantly from the enjoyable stays reported by guests.
The property generally received high marks for cleanliness, with guests finding it clean and well-maintained. There was a single mention of the conservatory being less clean, and some dishes not being spotless, but these seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.
The location is highly praised for being quiet yet conveniently close to the beach and local amenities. The ease of access to Weymouth and Dorchester makes it an ideal spot for visitors.
Guests have found the property very comfortable, with special mentions of the comfy beds and sofas. There was a minor comment about insufficient seating for a larger group, but overall, comfort levels were rated highly.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped property and a generous welcome hamper. Some minor maintenance issues were reported, such as a bath plug problem and a kitchen bin lid not staying closed, but these did not significantly impact the positive experiences.
The thoughtfulness of the host is evident from the welcome packs mentioned in several reviews, which added a personal touch to the guests' stay. It should be noted that such gifts, while appreciated, are not guaranteed for every stay.
About this property
Settled on the outskirts of Weymouth's bustling centre is this semi-detached, pet-friendly property in Dorset, 11 Beech Road. An ideal base for a family of seven to explore Dorset, Chesil Beach, and the Jurassic Coast, this spacious property has off-road parking for two cars, an enclosed private garden, and contemporary features. Kick off your boots and coats in the porch before making your way to the bright and airy open-plan living space. The kitchen area has all the home comforts, including an electric oven, gas hob, fridge/freezer and dishwasher, ready to whip up your favourite dishes. Settle around the large table and catch up with your loved ones over dinner, followed by a relaxing seat in the sitting area in front of the TV. Alternatively, bring a cold beverage to the conservatory to carry on the conversation or unwind with a good book during the day. Your canine companion has plenty of lawn space to snooze in the sun in the rear enclosed garden, whilst you settle into the outdoor seating for a moment's peace. After busy days exploring the spectacular Dorset coast, put your sandy towels on a spin in the handy utility which also has a WC and basin. Completing the ground floor is the first of four bedrooms, a bright king-size with a large bay window. Upstairs you'll find the master king-size with en-suite shower room, along with a twin room and a cosy single room. All bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, finished to a pristine standard, with a bath and shower over. Start your holiday by exploring the vibrant seaside town of Weymouth, where excellent pubs and restaurants include Sambô Rodizio, Rockfish Weymouth, and The George Bar & Grill, while you can stock up on essentials at convenience stores or supermarkets. Discover local history at the Tudor House Museum, pack your bathing suits for a swim along Bowleaze Cove or Weymouth Beach, and enjoy family-friendly exhibits at SEA LIFE Centre. RSPB Lodmoor and Radipole Lake and Gardens are sure to please wildlife lovers and those seeking a more tranquil day out, whilst the renowned Chesil Beach is a short drive away; be sure to book a boat tour at Wild Chesil Centre! However, if you'd prefer to stay on land, the West Dorset Heritage Coast has fabulous coastal paths to wander the breath-taking Jurassic Coast. More days out await in Dorchester to visit the former home of Thomas Hardy or Kingston Maurward Animal Park and Gardens, whilst further along the coast you'll find Bridport, a lovely market town close to the golden sands of West Bay beach, Bridport & West Dorset Golf Club, and more stunning Jurassic cliffs. An unforgettable holiday by the sea awaits at 11 Beech Road.
Weymouth, a prominent seaside resort, is an excellent year-round vacation spot, with a wide range of things to suit all tastes and ages. The beautiful golden sand beaches offer great facilities for all types of activities, and fishing expeditions depart from the attractive, lively harbour on a regular basis. Portland Harbour and the craggy "Isle" of Portland, joined to Weymouth by the stunning Chesil Beach, are only a short drive away.

A lovely touch for our stay. The house is modern and very spacious. We were able to get two cars on the drive and the garden was an ideal size. The only thing we would critique are the beds. The mattresses on the singles were very thin and uncomfortable. The king sized beds were comfortable, but very low to get in and out of. The pillows could all do with updating, as they felt lumpy and uncomfortable on the neck. The house is in a quiet road, but we should have done our homework, as it was a 10 minute car journey into Weymouth Centre/Harbour. We would have preferred to have stayed nearer to the centre, as we had to take the car everytime and pay extortionate parking fees. Overall, the house size suited our family of 6 and the cost to stay was good value for money. It was 60 minutes drive to Bournemouth, 30 minutes drive to West Bay and 10 minutes drive to Weymouth Harbour. Thank you.

Welcome pack was a very nice suprise thankyou and your 'special' tap as we called it for drinking etc was a godsend we loved it. We did find a few dishes not quite clean from the previous holiday maybe but we sorted and cleaned so no worries. Just a few fyi's as im not complaining at all :- Toilet roll holder in ensuite needs resecuring as was coming away from wall. Outside apple tree maybe before your next holiday stays - it might be ideal to move all old rotting apples on floor as we had to be careful with dog and small toddler not picking them up. We tried to find a rake or something to collect them but was unable to find. Please be assured we had an amazing holiday -we certainly picked a good week for the weather lol your home is a credit to you and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there so thankyou very much. Love Trevor,Sheila,Michelle,Lee,Sarah, little Jacob and dog Oscar xxxxxxx
