  • "Lovely flat and wonderful view."

    Reviewed by Digby5.0Jul 2024

  • "It was an amazing place to stay, we enjoyed it throughly!"

    The location is great and the flat is in superb condition, from kitchen to baths and the beds. We enjoyed the sea view and the time we spent chatting against it. Only area to improve is the clarification of car parking. I ended up using the Lodmoor car park just across the street (£15 per day) but was not sure how safe it is since it was very quiet at night, and the signs were not clear about overnight parking . It turned up good at the end and had no issues.

  • "One of most well equipped comfortable breaks we have experienced it was home from home only snag was the parking we had to park elsewhere for the `Ironman comp but that is a small price to pay for such an excellent accommodation there is no off road parking & the daily parking is £15:00 this is not mentioned on your web page."

  • "We did enjoy our holiday, but had the following concerns: It would have been useful to have a booklet about the specific property, as the kitchen switches were quite confusing to begin with."

    There were some pages about the property we stayed in, but the majority in the booklet was general advice about the various properties under the same company. It was also disappointing that the washer dryer did not dry, even the smallest loads, and we had to hang our washing on the backs of chairs. We also had to clean out the filter in the dishwasher, as this had clearly not been done in a long time, and was dirtying the dishes. The outside rubbish bins were full enough that they could not be closed when we arrived, which was an eyesore and created a smell in the hot weather, and they were not emptied at all during the week, meaning we couldn't dispose of our own rubbish from the kitchen bin. We are mobile adults and our child is 8, but I think it needs mentioning that the property would not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues, and would be a challenge for anyone with small children, due to the several stairs leading to the property. It was not accurate to state that there is 'ample' on-street parking as well as the paid sealife parking. We consistently had to park several minutes away from the property. Due to the size of the sink in the ensuite, a wall mounted handsoap dispenser would be more useful than trying to balance soap on a tiny ledge.

  • "Beautiful views of the sea and sunrise."

    Lovely property in an ideal location just a pity there is no parking provided. Large car park opposite at £10 per day but a struggle to carry luggage and shopping across. We had a really enjoyable stay here and would certainly be happy to return.

  • "Excellent accommodation and location."

    Very clean, well presented, thoughtfully laid and very well equipped. Tastefully decorated and right in the beach!

  • "Although the description did state the flat was on the second floor we didn’t realise quite how many steps were involved."

    There were so many steps it caused my husband great difficulty when having to take our cases etc up to the flat. The description really should make it very plain that if you are elderly and have mobility problems/ very young children etc then the flat would not be suitable. The description stated that there was lots of on street parking available which we didn’t find to be the case and if you didn’t want to spend an extra £70 then it was a real problem to park.

Situated overlooking Weymouth bay on the Dorset coast lies this beautiful second-floor apartment, Beach Retreat.

Adjacent to the pebble beach and offering stunning views towards Weymouth and Portland, the apartment sleeps four guests and is ideal for a family or friendly getaway.

Reaching the beachfront location with generous on-street parking, you'll work your way up to the elevated terrace where you can relax, rest on the patio furniture, and take in the breath-taking scenery of the coastal town.

Entering the apartment into a spacious open-plan kitchen/diner, homing all amenities and plenty of storage, unpack and prepare for your impending adventures.

Moving through the property, you'll reach a bright and homestyle sitting room with a woodburning stove, TV, and plenty of seating to unwind and take in the sea views.

Travelling through to the bedrooms, you'll have the choice between two well-presented double rooms, one with an en-suite shower, along with close access to the main bathroom.

Resting in the sought-after, tranquil end of Weymouth and within walking distance to shops, pubs and restaurants, there are many local waterfront attractions and exciting activities to fit into your holiday itinerary.

Set shoreside, there are an abundance of stunning coves and beaches to visit, including the peaceful surroundings of Eweleaze Beach, the highly recommended Bowleaze Cove, and the sandy shores of Weymouth.

Attracting many families to the local area, child-friendly experiences are expected at SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth, Sandworld Weymouth and its life-size exhibitions, and the remarkable sculpture of Torpedosaur.

The peaceful haven of Lodmoor nature reserve and Lodmoor Country Park boasting plenty of walking and cycle routes right on the doorstep, with Pirate Adventure Mini Golf and a Mini Railway nearby.
