About this property
Sea Pebbles is a contemporary modern semi-detached house in a very enviable position in Weymouth. Only a few steps from the front door and you are welcomed with far reaching views over The Nothe Fort, Portland, and along the Jurassic Coastline. A beautifully presented house offering all you need for a Weymouth seaside holiday.
Rather deceptively this house appears as a two-storey home from the front, however it is actually over 3 floors. On the lower ground floor is a spacious sitting room which opens out onto the landscaped and enclosed garden and various seating areas. The ground floor offers a spacious and well-equipped kitchen diner everything needed to create a delicious meal is in the cupboards. On the first floor are 3 comfortable bedrooms, perfect for a refreshing sleep before another day of holiday adventures in Dorset.
Being just a 3-4 minute walk from the harbour, you will find cafes and restaurants, and there are a variety of options for fish and chips on the harbourside, a Dorset tea and apple cake or local ice cream. From the harbour, it’s a gentle walk into the town centre and Weymouth's award-winning beach and esplanade.
Venturing further afield, you are only a short drive from many other incredible locations, around 15 minutes from Portland, with it's stunning views, hidden beaches and lighthouse, or a short drive of around 30 minutes in the other direction will see you visiting the monkey rescue centre at Monkey world or world heritage sites, Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove. Whatever you decide to do on your Dorset holiday, Sea Pebbles offers the perfect base for a family.
The ever popular resort of Weymouth makes an outstanding year-round holiday destination, with a wide variety of attractions on offer, appealing to all tastes and ages. The glorious golden sandy beach with its shallow waters provide excellent facilities for all kinds of watersports, whilst from the picturesque, bustling harbour you can take regular fishing trips. A short drive takes you to Portland Harbour, and the rugged “Isle” of Portland, linked to Weymouth by the dramatic Chesil Beach. Visit Dorchester, Thomas Hardy’s “Casterbridge”, only 7 miles away, or take a journey along the scenic coastal road and call in at Abbotsbury Swannery and Subtropical Gardens. Alternatively, just head down to West Bay - the views of the stunning Dorset Heritage Coastline are not to be missed!

It is very well situated in a quiet cul-de-sac, but within easy walking distance to the harbour. It's clean and comfortable, well equippped with loads of cupboard space and the owners look to have taken on board the (minor) negative comments from earlier reviews and rectified them wherever possible. My wife struggled with locking and unlocking the front door, but always managed it in the end. It's the only reason I didn't give Sea Pebbles a five star review.

Parking on site a real bonus. Would be helpful to leave a note in the folder informing guests of the microwave oven wattage. A minor point but the inside of the microwave was quite rusty so may want to check that out. Hope to book again one day as such a relaxing house to stay in.

? We struggled to find any cleaning tools and we eventually discovered them becsuse the lowest floor living area door covers the downstairs cupboard door if left open. Also broken lock & no bath plug in main bathroom. We were lucky to have good weather all the time & we were generally happy, but wouldn't recommend this property especially to less mobile.
