Great place to stay with loads to see and do, really like being abroad with that Mediterranean feel to the whole island / peninsula. Trevina is a great older building ideal for dogs with closed in garden and parking out front. Very comfortable home from home and older kids loved it too with brilliant bus service to Weymouth for them to explore. Cheaper than car parking in Weymouth too so it’s used by everyone.We all said we would go again so that’s always a sign of a holiday that will last in the memories.

Trevina is a gem- perfectly situated for enjoying the island, with the cliffs only minutes away, and Weymouth nearby, it’s also a great base for wider explore of Dorset. The house is roomy and comfortable, and a real asset is the charming and private back garden, full of butterflies
