Brilliant setting right on top of Portland Harbour, close to so many activities, walks or just to sit in the sun. Many choices of places to eat out or take away who deliver to the door. House is great, clean and pet friendly. Garden is very secure even for my little chihuahua, no stair gate to stop dogs going upstairs which would have helped. Some shade from an umbrella or such would have been useful. House well decorated excepted the sitting room, plain and chairs not comfortable or well set out. Saying this we would go back again.

“Loved the enclosed and secure garden for our small dogs but if you don’t want them to go upstairs a stair gate is needed.”

The house is lovely, well decorated and comfortable except the sitting room. It’s plain, unwelcoming and the chairs are so uncomfortable, far too low even for the fittest of us. We spent a lot of our time in the dining/kitchen area. The back garden is a sun trap but needs some sort of shade - umbrella or covering over the decking.

- Mrs Foster-alexander, June 2019
“Excellent accommodation,clean and well equipped.”

Close to a small dog friendly beach ideal for morning needs. On the the Rodwell trail, which is ideal for longer walks. Bus service excellent. Close to beautiful sights of Dorset.

- Mrs Mawston, June 2019
“We had a problem with reception on the TV Dream Homes came round immediately and when they could not fix they got someone else in to do this.”

Excellent service in a lovely holiday home , highly recommended .

- Mrs Rowe, May 2019
“Television reception is very poor and only BBC channels were able to be watched.”

Overall we were very pleased with the cottage and it was in a great location.

- Mrs Maysey, May 2019
“A wonderful position, with good views and a lovely, enclosed rear garden.”

- Mrs Coates, April 2019

Stayed April 2017

- Mr Stuart Clayton,
“Home Waters is a comfortable modern cottage in a quiet location with excellent links to both Weymouth and Portland with buses every 10 minutes.”

The sea is just 50 metres away with the Rodwell Trail following the coast towards Weymouth. This was ideal for us with our dog together with a local shop just 5 minutes walk away. Stayed July 2016

House and garden were in top condition, clean, well organised and ready to use when we arrrived. The neighbourhood was calm and there wasn´t any traffic noise from the street. We were impressed of the short way to the sea. Best regards from Germany. Karl Stayed September 2015

The property

Home Waters is located in a quiet location on the edge of Portland Harbour at Ferrybridge, the southerly tip of Weymouth.

Situated close to Smallmouth Bay with its small sandy beach this three bedroom house provides the base location for your family holiday.

Enjoy playing games with each other on the Playstation or watching a movie together in the cosy sitting room or enjoy the fresh air sitting outside in the patio area.

Take a drive or bus ride over to Portland and visit Portland Bill lighthouse, maybe grabbing a spot of lunch at The Lobster Pot.

Portland offers a rugged charm with cliff top walks, wildlife and the wonderful Chesil beach to comb and look for a few lost treasures.

Weymouth town centre with a host of shops, restaurants, attractions and the main beach with its golden sands is a pleasant 30 minutes' walk away along the 'Rodwell Trail', an old converted railway line or around an eight minutes' drive/bus journey away. A short walk along the coast will take you to hidden away Sandsfoot beach which is an ideal alternative to the more commercialised town centre beach.

The surrounding waters, which welcome the very best of the world's waters sports enthusiasts were where the sailing Olympic events were held in 2012. Home Waters makes for a comfortable family holiday home with the benefit of parking and a landscaped patio garden in an ideal coastal location.

About the location

WYKE REGIS

Weymouth 2 miles; Dorchester 9 miles.

Wyke Regis is village on the south western side of Weymouth that sits on the northern edges of Portland harbour and reaches as far as the back of Chesil beach and The Fleet. 2 miles from the centre of Weymouth. There are local shops, cafés and restaurants including The famous Crab House café, with it’s own Oyster beds on the doorstep. The National Sailing school, an Olympic legacy, offers a wide variety of water sports and is just 2 miles away on the edge of Portland harbour. The Fleet lagoon that runs between Wyke Regis and Chesil beach is an important area for wildlife and there are many species of birds to be seen in the area. Chesil beach is also a renowned spot for fishing. The Fleet is probably most famous for being the testing ground for Barnes Wallis’s bouncing bomb, immortalised in the film the Dam Busters. Wyke Regis is the perfect location from which to explore many of Dorset’s most iconic locations on the Jurassic coast.
