Step into the spacious sitting room, where two sofas are positioned in front the TV, making a great spot for relaxing of an evening, or you could open up the patio doors during a balmy afternoon to admire the coastal soundtrack, as you get lost within a good book. From here, head into the well-equipped kitchen, which is certain to entice a spot of home-cooking by making use of the electric oven and hob, microwave and fridge/freezer. Relish in some catch-up time at the dining table as you tuck into your family favourite recipe, before pulling open the map to plan the next day’s adventure.

  • Nicola

    The apartment is an home from home with everything you could need. The parking is an absolute bonus too. The view from the apartment is to die for and the location is exceptional. You are in the middle of the bars and restaurant and a few minutes walk to the beach. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend the apartment to anyone. The welcome box with treats and milk in the fridge was such a lovely touch! Thanks so much for another amazing week in Weymouth. X
