About this property
A beautiful period cottage just off Brewers Quay Lobster Cottage is located in one of the most picturesque and popular areas in Weymouth hosting several festivals throughout the year.
A few steps from the property is the old harbour where you can spend a lazy afternoon admiring the flotilla of fishing boats and yachts come and go or letting the children try their hand at crabbing.
Lobster Cottage has been restored to a high standard and benefits from off-street parking for two small cars, a rare and real bonus in the Brewers Quay area.
Accommodate up to six guests in three bedrooms, situated on the first and second floors, Lobster Cottage is perfect for a family or group of friend’s holiday. The second-floor double bedroom is an en-suite shower room with basin and WC.
Brewers Quay is home to numerous restaurants, coffee houses and pubs, perfect for eating alfresco freshly caught sea food or provincially brewed beer. The town centre with the usual high street shops and narrow streets with quirky local shops is a leisurely stroll away. For days when the weather is not too good Weymouth has a cinema and amusements. On the edge of town is the award winning blue flag sandy main beach with its shallow bathing waters.

This thriving area called Brewers Quay is the old Victorian brewery situated right at the very heart of the harbour, in Weymouth, Dorset.

We wouldâve liked two sets of keys rather than just the one as we had to put it back in the key safe Every time we went out separately.. The Twin bedroom was very noisy when they turned the extractor fans on for the restaurant just behind the property, and this should be stated in the details. We had a very hot week but couldnât leave the windows open at night. Due to the noise of the bottle bins being emptied from the local restaurants., it wouldâve been nice to have had a fan. No matter how I tried I couldnât stop the floor from being covered with water every time I showered using the shower over the bath, Iâm not sure what can be done about this, but I have to mop the floor every time I had a shower. Although these are concerns I had I would definitely book here again on our next visit to Weymouth. The location for us was perfect and to have a parking space was an added bonus.

Staying right in the harbour and a short walk into town was perfect and with so many restaurants, pubs, shops and other facilities on the doorstep, we were able to really enjoy what Weymouth had to office. The property itself was clean and homely and arriving to a nice welcome hamper and guide to the property and surrounding area was perfect. The kitchen and cosy space in the garden allowed us to have some lovely breakfasts indoors and outdoors to build us up for our days out. Then returning in the afternoon or evening, we were able to relax and talk through our days in the living room or relaxing on the beds. It was really nice thank you.
