lovely cottage, great location
Great place to stay. Good range of facilities. No dishwasher. Rug in dining room very slippery so we just removed it. Everything else perfect. Owner response time minutes when sent a non urgent query....couldn't have been better. Everybody had a good time - especially the dog - the room off the kitchen for dog washing etc is a great idea.

Ideal for dog owners
Great place to stay for Weymouth and Portland. This cottage is ideal for dog owners, dog food bowls and treats there ready for your 4 legged friends. The cottage was beautifully decorated and very clean. The welcome pack was great, with tea, coffee and a pint of fresh milk in the fridge. There was a Tassimo coffee machine with pods provided. There was also ice ready in the freezer for pre dinner cocktails Loved the trolley with all you needed for the beach( 5 min walk to Smallmouth Beach) . This is a great beach if you have small children, as well as great for SUP The covered over yard is ideal for washing off sandy equipment and dogs
