  Cleaning could of been better to be honest did find an awful lot of long dark head hairs throughout and were hanging from the washing machine door when I went to use it I'm not aware of how long cleaners get to complete a clean in between lets nor do I know what state the last people left the property but with the current situation going on I would of thought would be a deeper clean in-between I had taken my own cleaning sprays etc so did anything as I went along if I noticed it however beds were beautifully made nice and fresh and clean although we arrived on a very wet day and bedroom skylight had been left open I'd imagine to air the room but it had rained in onto the wardrobe which could cause damage if done regularly just a thought radiator must have an issue in main bedroom also as a blue plastic bowl is placed underneath just ruins the look really of overall a lovely apartment and shame lack of outdoor seating it could benefit having some outside I had thought it did say it had in listing but I may be mistaken but worth a thought WiFi went down after first day and wasn't sorted out by by till day before we left which was a shame although dream cottages were great in what they could do as it was out of Thier control position of the apartment was fabulous and washing line in the garden was very useful overall a lovely spacious apartment in a lovely setting we had a lovely time

  The house is in a great location right on the sea front and close to shops, restaurants and cafes.

  It was clean and comfortable with good quality beds, bedding and towels. We especially loved the large open plan kitchen dining area and the sitting room. As a large family group this was perfect for us. The few niggles we had were firstly on the practical domestic front. We preferred to cook most evenings and discovered the cooker seal had come off so we fixed this. We also found that some toilet roll holders had come off, which we couldn’t fix. Finally, as mentioned in details about the house, the Nook bar next door has live music from Tuesday to Saturday. We were aware of this when booking though discovered that when it is a live guitarist/band that as this is in the front bar right next to the front of the house it is as loud as though you are actually sitting in the bar because there is no noise reduction. Maybe the owner (if they haven’t already) could speak to the Nook about moving this to the back of the bar or adding in some kind of noise reduction. Also, people smoking outside can tend to sit on the front door step and leave cigarette butts and bottles of beer which isn’t so nice when leaving the house in the morning! Coming from London where we live opposite a pub we were expecting and prepared for the noise but found these aspects unfortunate as the house is so lovely.

  Beautiful apartment.

  Comfortable, clean, great location & reserved parking. BUT.... It was spoilt by being woken twice early hours (from 2:30/3am) when it rained due to broken guttering & the noise on the bedroom ceiling venting window (which also leaks). It sounded like someone had a hose at full bore on it. (You could hear from every room) I contacted Sykes on the Mon morning (messaged at about 3am - emailed). They rang me not long after they opened to apologise & said they'd contact the local maintenance guy. He rang me (pleasant chap) apologised & said they were aware of the issue (for a couple of months) & he was also trying to get the owner to replace the venting window. On the Fri during the day it poured down, good job we were back at the apartment as it was leaking so much we had to put a big bowl underneath otherwise it would have ruined the carpet or any of our belongings had anything been there. We stayed here a while ago before some of it was refurbished and really loved it. Would love to stay again, but not until this issue has been resolved - a holiday is supposed to be relaxing, we were lucky that for most of our stay we had good weather, but it certainly wouldn't be if you had lots of sleepless nights due to the noise & leak especially with the typical weather in the UK!

  Although we had a lovely holiday in Weymouth we would not stay at Brewers House again.

  Parts of the property could do with being updated and the beds were very soft (personal preference I know). There were issues with both sets of neighbours and we constantly felt like we were being watched. We had some music playing in the garden (not loud) and because it was a windy day one neighbour asked us to turn it down as it was carrying in the wind. He also told us he was having some work carried out on his property and that there would be noise (of which there was) but luckily we were out during the day so we avoided this. The other neighbour questioned the light which was left on in the garden, of which was on when we arrived. He asked us to turn it off, he stated it was quite a simple task, and if we needed assistance we could give him the keys and he would pop in whilst we were out during the day to do it for us! In fact you could not turn the power to the light off without turning the power to the garage door off, and as we were using the garage it was on the majority of the time We did turn the power off in the evening to turn the light off but it was supposed to be a sensor light of which the sensor wasn't working otherwise it wouldn't have been on all the time.

  The house was lovely and in a lovely location in terms of the beach, nice restaurants, etc.

  The property could benefit from some general redecoration in the circulation areas, hallways, stairs, etc as these were quite scuffed, etc. But the house had everything we needed and more! The property description does say that there are bars on the doorstep and that loud music until the early hours would happen... BUT.... early hours meant 4am at the weekends and 1am every night of the week. After the music turns off, the drinking and loud conversation go on for another hour at least!! Then the clean up and maintenance starts at 7am!! Jet washing outside, etc. I think that maybe the property is listed because it is single pane windows so you can hear everything!! On our 1st night the noise stopped around 5pm but we were then woken at 7am with the clean up and then at 10am the door was banging - a cleaner was there to do the 'change over' as he has been sent the wrong information! Not ideal after the rubbish nights sleep. Having said all that, the house was beautiful and I would return but not with children.
