It is fantastically situated to access all local amenities; green area for a quick dog walk, beach, shops, harbour, Weymouth town and only a short walk away from the lesser known (but idyllic) sandy beach of Castle Cove. We could not fault anything about this property and would 100% recommend a stay here. Thank you for the little gift basket that was provided on our arrival - tea, coffee, biscuits, jam, sparkling drink - it was much appreciated after our journey down. We shall certainly use Rockpools again for future visits to Weymouth. Rachael & Richard
