About this property

Resting just outside the centre of Weymouth is this beautifully-appointed, three-storey, detached house, Family House. With five bedrooms sleeping 10 guests, you'll find spacious living areas, stylish furnishings and nearby amenities for a memorable holiday along Dorset's renowned coast. Park in the off-road parking space for two cars and step inside your home-from-home, where a well-equipped, contemporary kitchen awaits; rustle up hearty meals using the range cooker, whilst the dishwasher and washing machine do the dirty work for you. Grab a bottle from the wine cooler and set the large table in the living/dining room to toast to your seaside retreat. After a fun-filled day by the sea, sink into the plush corner sofa and snuggle up for a movie night in front of the TV, whilst the sun room is a bright and airy spot to socialise with your loved ones. For guests seeking a quieter escape, retreat to the first-floor study to set up your laptop on the corner desk with plenty of work space. Meanwhile, the rear, enclosed garden is perfect for children to play on the lawn and swing set, with a fenced pond and plenty of seating to catch the sunshine; cyclists and watersport enthusiasts will find storage space in the handy garage! Family House offers two sleek bathrooms for guests to unwind with a hot bubble bath or shower, complete with heated towel rails, as well as two cloakrooms to quickly freshen up before heading out. Settle down for the night in one of five well-appointed bedrooms with storage space for your belongings; the second-floor hosts a super-king-size zip/link with a day bed, TV and views across Weymouth from the Juliet balcony, and two doubles, a single and a triple room with a TV lie on the first floor. Venture out into Weymouth for a variety of family-friendly activities; meet sea creatures at the town's SEA LIFE, pack your clubs for a game at Weymouth Golf Club, or simply relax along the sandy beach and sparkling shores. The Isle of Portland is scattered with historic sites, ruins and sea views, whilst wildlife lovers have RSPB Lodmoor right on their doorstep. Chesil Beach is a must-visit to marvel at the iconic cliffs of the Jurassic Coast; stop off at Fine Foundation Chesil Beach Centre to book boat trips and marvel at wildlife exhibitions! For a variety of shops, eateries and attractions, the towns of Dorchester and Bridport are nearby to fuel up as you venture along Dorset's unforgettable coast. For a holiday home you'll love returning to again and again, book your stay at Family House.

Weymouth, a prominent seaside resort, is an excellent year-round vacation spot, with a wide range of things to suit all tastes and ages. The beautiful golden sand beaches offer great facilities for all types of activities, and fishing expeditions depart from the attractive, lively harbour on a regular basis. Portland Harbour and the craggy "Isle" of Portland, joined to Weymouth by the stunning Chesil Beach, are only a short drive away.

    Everyone enjoyed it. Only a few things, no decaf options of tea and coffee, and the Wi-Fi would drop out on the top floor when everyone else woke up and joined the Wi-Fi.

    They especially enjoyed feeding the fish once a day. The living room, sun room and kitchen are large and lovely to use. The bathrooms are done to a very high standard. The property is a lovely property to stay but we experienced a few problems. We found the washing machine needs investigation as it leaves marks on clothes that you wash. We could not get the dishwasher to work as it had an error code. We could not find any instructions to identify what this code was, therefore we washed all our pots by hand. The instruction manual needs full instructions for all the appliances. The top floor bedroom was the master bedroom. There was nowhere to dry and style your hair. There are plenty of plugs but could not sit under the eaves banging my head. No mirror at all except in the bathroom. I had to sit in another bedroom with a very little mirror and dressing table. I feel there is room to improve the top floor bedroom with hair styling facilities. The slide needs replacing as it has a crack around the fixings. Overall we had a good time but these few problems were inconvenient.

    Some furniture needs to be replaced/updated (some tables and chairs) disappointed with the cleanliness of the property, high chair and travel cot absolutely filthy and also the downstairs mattress protector covered in stains.
