“We had a wonderful time at Bowleaze.”

The house was lovely, comfortable and well equipped. It's in a fantastic location for the beach, but the front driveway is not for the faint hearted!! Would definitely recommend this property for families like ours or groups of friends. Thank you for a great time!

“The property itself and the location were, for the most part, absolutely amazing.”

Most of the place was spotless - the hall and stair carpet was extremely grubby with several stains - so that may need a re-vamp or deep clean. Only a few main niggles - the lock in the main bathroom doesn't work, and the fridge, however we tried to adjust the settings, was intent in freezing everything solid! A handrail for the steps outside would also be a safer bet, for those who don't want to chance the very steep driveway! The bedrooms being downstairs was a blessing in this current heat, but the living areas upstairs were incredibly uncomfortable, even with the curtains drawn - I would suggest that the owners perhaps supply some fans? A table and chairs with a parasol for the grass area in the garden would have been appreciated - we didn't really get to use the outside area as much as we would have liked, as it is south facing and was extremely hot. There was a table and chairs on the balcony patio, but as four 60+ women, we were not keen to attempt moving the table down to the garden. Other than that, this was a fabulous place with a 2 minute walk to a gorgeous beach.

- Jean, July 2026

Hi Jean, Thank you for the feedback regarding the stairs and the hall carpet the marks on the carpet are caused accidentally by guests carrying out the refuse with dripping bags and every time we go we clean this up. If it’s carried out in the bin we have no spillages. We have now provided 2 large fans Thankyou. We understand about the table and have plans for next year to provide a new patio to the side of the bottom garage. So pleased you enjoyed your stay Thanks Ian & Sharon Property Owner
Anita June 2026

“This was wonderful accommodation with the possible exception being the steepness of the drive.”

The house itself was excellent and we had a heatwave for the entire week! Fantastic time. Highly recommended.

- Anita, June 2026

Hi Anita, So pleased you enjoyed a great week , we purchased the house about 22 years ago and love it, our children have grown up and now they have small children. Thankyou for the review it means such a lot and the weather must have been brilliant for you Kind Regards Ian & Sharon (owners) Property Owner
Norma October 2025

“This is the second visit to Bowleaze View, the beds are really comfortable with lovely white linen and towels.”

The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed and the welcome pack is a nice addition. However a deep clean would be good (especially the carpets and oven) there is a grill pan but the wire rack is bent and much smaller so it would be difficult to use this, some furnishings (bedrooms) are now looking very tired. The position of this property is really good with lovely views but beware the drive it is very steep.

- Norma, October 2025

Thanks for the review, we are doing a very thorough deep clean in March ourselves, which we do every 6 months, we have for 2026 provided a air fryer in the kitchen which we find such a useful addition to our own home, also we have installed a wall mounted large screen smart TV in the lounge. Hope you visit again very soon Many Thanks Ian & Sharon (owners) Property Owner

“A beautiful home with all the homely comforts needed.”

One of the best holiday homes we've stayed in. Great location right next to the beach and an ideal place to explore from.

- Lesley, June 2025
Anthony May 2025

“Fabulous holiday in lovely property snd dearly hope to be back in the future.”

Also whenever we have spoken to you guys at Sykes you have been great. A mere suggestion. Anyone with a slight mobility issue would I believe welcome a simple handrail by the steps.

- Anthony, May 2025
Roy December 2024

“We really enjoyed our stay at Bowleaze View and would be very happpy to stay there again in the future.”

Bright, warm, clean, well equipped, and well situated. The festive decorations and gift wrapped presents under the tree were much appreciated, The steep drive was a bit intimidating but we soon got used to it.

- Roy, December 2024
Eric September 2024

“Yes it is a very nice cottage,you could do with toilet roll holders, very nice to be close to the sea.”

It was a nice holiday but we left on Wednesday due to the weather but your cottage is very nice and the beds very Comfortable. Thank you Eric and Sheila

- Eric, September 2024

Hi Eric & Sheila, Thank you for the feed back, we are so sorry the weather was not as good as we expect for September and hope it won’t put you off coming to Weymouth again Property Owner
Tamarin August 2024

“The location of the house was perfect - walks or short drives to everything we wanted.”

Everything we needed was at the property. Beds, linen and furniture was all comfortable. Plenty of clean, fluffy, white towels and the showers worked well. Kitchen is well stocked of crockery, cutlery and utensils and we used the washing machine too. The driveway is steep but perfectly manageable. The ceiling is a bit noisy downstairs when anyone is upstairs, but it is minor and we got used to it quickly. WiFi was great. The views from the living room, dining room and kitchen as a treat. We loved our stay and would stay again if back in the area.

- Tamarin, August 2024

Dear Tamarin Firstly Sharon & I are so pleased to read your feedback back and thank you for taking the time to review our holiday home. We really gives us so much pleasure knowing that you have enjoyed your stay here and enjoyed Weymouth. When we first purchased the house, we thought exactly the same about the steep drive, but it soon becomes very easy to manoeuvre after a couple of descents Property Owner
Caren July 2024

“Great accommodation very comfortable and clean lots of space very close to town 5minute drive to main sandy beach literally across the road is pebble beach.”

Beautiful views from the house especially the living room which they thoughtfully left binoculars on the window sill to get a closer look. Would definitely stay again and can throughly recommend the Oasis cafe just down the hill great breakfast and lunch inside or out the drive leading down to the house is a bit daunting at first but got use it very quickly and it wasn’t a problem so don’t let it put you off . The upside down layout was great as there was no lugging cases upstairs can’t not recommend it highly enough Thank you

- Caren, July 2024

Thank you, so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Bowleaze Coveway , we are so pleased to share the house with you Thankyou Ian & Sharon Property Owner
Amanda May 2024

“Had a really enjoyable week.”

Accommodation was fab’, the location & views were great. Drive is steep but, soon got used to it. Only thing we would recommend is having a bus time-table & the land train pick up points information included in pack. Possibly even train info’. As we would have used local transport more had we been aware of, what to catch, where to catch it & where it took you. Disappointed that Weymouth didn’t seem to have an information tourist outlet. We looked & asked locals where one could be found & no-one seemed to know if there was one, or where it was located. Definitely didn’t find it on St Mary’s Street, which was a shame.

- Amanda, May 2024

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and thank you for taking the time to write about your stay.We will look into putting a bus time table in the welcome pack. Thanks Ian & Sharon Property Owner

Mark September 2023

“We stay in Dorset at least once every year.”

This house and location is very nice and general cleanliness is OK. Facilities provided are good, but it felt like maintenance was lacking in a few areas as if the owner wasn't really the ones keeping an eye on it. Kitchen is nice & large but not very well organised. Utensils etc. are all over the place in different near empty cupboards making self catering a bit of a nightmare. Halogen hob is very slow to get going and took about 20 mins. to boil a pan of water! Freezer is pretty noisy and started beeping constantly towards the end of the holiday so we shut it down in case it was overworking. The driveway is definitely a challenge as it is so steep and depending on where the neighbours & their visitors park can be very awkward to get a run up to get out with a cold engine. Can't see how you could really practically have more than 2 cars off road without a LOT of shunting around.

- Mark, September 2023
Pauline August 2023

“The property was perfect in every way.”

I would say a real home from home but it was much better than that. The beds were comfy, the kitchen well equipped and a lovely main bathroom. Loved the views from the kitchen and lounge. Overall, we had a brilliant week in a beautiful property...

Rachael July 2023

“Cleanliness not very good, crumbs on dining table and floors.”

Kitchen items including frying pans dirty. Food bits including chips in oven. Fuse box kept tripping out when we turned lights on. Step leading up from house - one is cracked with piece missing so is dangerous. Piece of step broken on steps at side of house. Toilet in en suite is faulty and kept filling up continuously. No chain on kitchen sink plug. Very steep drive.

- Rachael, July 2023
Sandra May 2023

“We really enjoyed our week at Bowleaze Coveway and would definitely consider staying there again.”

It is a lovely, comfortable property and was well placed for us. We had one slight issue at the start of the week, but this was very swiftly sorted. Even the weather was good - mostly!

- Sandra, May 2023

Really pleased you enjoyed your stay in Bowleaze View, we always do our best working together with Dream Cottages to ensure all our guests have a lovely holiday. Thank you Ian & Sharon Property Owner
Emma April 2023

“We did have a nice week at Bowleaze View.”

It is in an idea position to visit many places along the coast and the county. The house is an upside down arrangement, to make the most of the sea views in the living areas, which were lovely. However, I feel we need to point out to the owners that the house is in real need of care and attention. There is a water leak that must have been going on for a long time, just outside the front door as the water trail has now turned green and could potentially be slippery. Both the garage doors are in desperate need of painting, as do the decking railings. First impressions of the house are important. The hot tub which we know is not in use is in a very bad state. The kitchen has been neglected as there is only random equipment in place. We had a plague of ants on the ground floor where the bedrooms are, so we could not put anything on the floor. We were also not expecting the driveway to be just so frighteningly steep. It would not be for everyone to be able to access this property as even the flight uneven steps do not have a handrail. My husband has been in the building industry for decades and has stated the it is a real shame that a house which has such potential has been left to decline into such a poor condition. If the owners are paying for maintenance to be carried out on their behalf then this is an issue that they need to address. I have read all previous reviews and see that general maintenance is an ongoing problem that has been highlighted for a few years now. What a shame, as Bowleaze View is not a cheap property to rent. Please attend to all the issues that hirers have raised with you now and before. You can’t say you haven’t been told. For all the mentioned lack of care reasons listed above, I would not be able to recommend this property at this time.

- Emma, April 2023
Sara October 2022

“We had a lovely time at the property, which suited our needs well.”

Fantastic views from the upstairs windows and so close to the beach. It was also near to the main road in and out of Weymouth, so perfect for popping in, or getting away to explore the area.

- Sara, October 2022

Thankyou Sara, So pleased you enjoyed your week. Ian & Sharon Owners Property Owner

“There were no oven gloves.”

And the fridge makes a continuous noise so can hear it in the bedroom below. Really annoying. But overall we enjoyed our stay.

“My family loved bowleaze ,we have enjoyed our week .”

We will definitely be back . A couple of things happened while we were there,and they were sorted very quickly .beautiful property Ann West

Bianca July 2022

“This is our second stay in the house.”

It’s perfect for us, with its two bathrooms, lovely showers and location near the beach at Overcombe. The bin situation has been sorted too which is great to know that the owners act on feedback. Would agree with the other reviews about the poor comfort ratings of the double beds, particularly in the main bedroom. Much better would be either two twin beds which you push together for versatility or a 6ft bed with a firm mattress.

“Thanks for a lovely cottage could not fault it fantastic”

- Steven, May 2022
Lynda April 2022

“A lovely house in a good location.”

However in need of some tlc i.e decorating. Some minor diy needs attending to - sinks in ensuite and right hand side of family bathroom, both plus need adjusting; some oven pans and frying pans need replacing; right hand side lounge window needs refitting as there is a large gap; Attention to detail with some cleaning i.e table mats/coasters and patio area from main bedroom.

- Lynda, April 2022
Michelle April 2022

“We had a fabulous week away.”

The cottage was lovely and delivered everything it had promised within the description. Clean, tidy and literally a stones throw from the beach. We had one slight issue the day after we arrived but after a phone call to the office it was all sorted, and bearing in mind it was Easter Sunday they couldn’t have done anymore to sort it for us, and also kept us updated. Thank you and we will definitely be looking to use you again.

- Michelle, April 2022
Tracey April 2022

“Thank you so much for our stay here.”

We absolutely loved it and have definately popped it on our favourites list to return again in the future. We visit Weymouth every year often more than once we would love to return here again Parking was fun ! Loved the Interior, the Views, the location. Many thanks for our most wonderful stay last week.

“Nice house in good position ,In need of some TLC, generally clean except for bedroom floor it looked like toothpaste had been walked into it so had to clean it .”

Blind in e-suite broken, insufficient pillows for a family of 6 NO recycling and only 1 bin bag and 1 small dustbin - insufficient for families Lose paving slabs in both front and back garden and during heavy rain the drains at the front overflowed (? need clearing out)

Overall a great rental property in a fantastic location.

Jayne September 2021

“As with other reviews of the Property cleanliness of the property was not good.”

The entrance porch was grubby, there was bird excrement all over the door step giving access to the garden that had clearly been there for some time, the stair carpet had not been vacumed, there was dust on all surfaces, shelves, towel rails, headboards, skirting, and not just surface dust, when I wiped out the shower (using the bath mat as there were no cleaning materials available) the mat was covered in black marks which were certainly not one weeks worth of dirt!. Given the covid situation and the delayed check in time for additional cleaning there was little evidence of a deep clean. The house itself is lovely and in an excellent location position with lovely views but attention to the cleaning process needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency as the continuous comments on cleanliness are likely to have a serious affect on bookings. The booking process with Sykes was easy and regular updates and information was very good. The cleanliness issue is letting the owners of the property and Sykes down.

- Jayne, September 2021
Bianca August 2021

“Really loved the location and facilities.”

Perfectly met our needs and we have rebooked for next year. The house would benefit from a deeper clean occasionally (top of cupboards, corners etc). But the main areas were cleaner than some of the reviews led us to expect. There is an issue with the bins. No recycling bin is a big issue, not only for the environment but also capacity as mentioned by the previous guests. One slimline black bin is not enough if you have to put ALL waste in it. I think the description should also make clear that this house is not good for anyone with mobility issues (including visitors during your stay). Because all thé living facilities are upstairs you can’t avoid going up the steep stairs. And then you have to come down again to the toilet and back up again. The outside drive is the steepest I have ever seen…can’t believe it meets building control standards!! And there are steps to the side for pedestrian access which are not lit at night and would also be difficult for less mobile/elderly people. But it works for us and we will be back again in the hope that the bin situation is sorted.

- Bianca, August 2021
Val August 2021

“We have stayed at this property twice.”

It is perfectly located for access to the pebble beach at Bowleaze Cove. It now has a new dishwasher and DVD player which improved on our previous visit. Our family found both double beds uncomfortable so ended the week feeling tired from lack of good sleep. Apart from that it is a lovely house and the grandkids love the fact that it is "upside down". Our other main issue this time was the fact that there is only one slimine wheely bin for 6 people for the week with no recycling facility. It is considered as trade waste and the council wont take the bin if it wont close apparently ! We ended up taking bags of glass bottles and cans home which we resent when the property is expensive to rent! For the cost of rental there should be more rubbish storage. Also the rental prices are being increased dramatically next year which means we wont be returning.

“We had a lovely holiday at Bowleaze View.”

House was comfortable and clean and had lovely views. Dream Cottages were easy to deal with. We were very close to the beech and able to walk to it and from the house close to visit lots of places in Weymouth and the surrounding areas. It was a nice benefit having the Harvester across the road. We would definitely recommend. We had a lovely week staying at Bowleaze view.

- Kevin, October 2020
Carol September 2020

“We contacted you mid week before we were due to arrive because previous reviews were not too complimentary regarding cleanliness and the twin bed mattresses were also mentioned as being uncomfortable.”

Your customer service team member said they would contact the dream holiday rep and that she would get back to us. No-one did. We arrived around 3.45pm ( 1 hour early as due to COVID the cleaning team needed extra time to ensure the cleaning was done to a 'high standard'). We asked permission to enter the property and was advised by Dream Cottages to go ahead but report any issues as the housekeeper might not have checked the property after the cleaning team had been in. The cleaning team had been in. The beds were changed and the towels were fresh. However, there was mouldy pizza in the kitchen bin. Food spillage on the kitchen stools. Crisps in the cushions in the lounge, dirty ring marks on the dining table and coasters and some surfaces had not seen a duster or a wet cloth for some time. On inspection, we had to contact your customer service team as there was a note on a blackboard in the kitchen 'dishwasher leaking put something under to catch water' or words to that effect. The floor tiles near the dishwasher were warped and lifting. The main bathroom had a drawer that literally came off in our hand, some of the floor trim was loose and not fixed and the dairy tray in the fridge was missing. We reported this, a maintenance man arrived and advised the dishwasher required an appliance specialist. We agreed not to use it. Mid week we decided to watch one of the generous selection of DVDs. Only to discover that the DVD player did not work and there was no handset. No-one contacted us for the remainder of our stay. The day before we were due to leave we received an e-mail advising of how we should leave the property on departure. Rest assured we left the property much cleaner than we found it. My complaint is that you were given additional time to clean the property due to COVID. On arrival I felt it necessary to thoroughly sanitise all surfaces before we were happy to use them. You failed to contact us to let us know what you intended to do about it. You have still not responded to any of the e-mails we sent you on 30.9.20 and 2.10.20. Although, you have sent us many e-mails asking for feedback and trying to encourage us to book with you again, and asking for feedback. Well hear it is. The property is beautiful, your cleaning and maintenance team have let the owners down. We paid a great deal for a weeks holiday. It was not in an acceptable state when we arrived, you need to get back to your customers when contacted with issues. I appreciate these are unprecedented times, but you had additional time to make sure the property was ready for use. You failed. I really hope to hear from you soon, as my next contact will be by letter to your head office as e-mail and telephone have proved fruitless. The owners have a fantastic property, you are letting them down.

- Carol, September 2020
Tracey September 2020

“A few little things that could be improved.”

A lot of dust and crumbs about. Also some things could be fixed I.e. dishwasher and would make life easier if there was a Remote control for DVD player as would not be easy to use if your not use to technology.

“The steps leading to the road need attention, otherwise everything good.”

Gary August 2020

“The house was fantastic, lovely views and the binoculars was a good idea.”

The house was clean and tidy when we arrived. The only complaint was the mattresses on the single beds, very soft and the springs could be felt. Not comfortable or suitable for an adult , We also requested a high chair but one wasn't left so I called the office,as it was late they couldn't get one to us but the next day a brand new one was left for us in the box. The drive way and the steeps are extremely steep, worth bearing in mind for nervous drivers and people with walking issues. There is a dip at the bottom off the drive in front off the garage door so easy to ground your car. We really enjoyed our holiday so don't any of the negative things above put you off just be aware off them.

- Gary, August 2020
Ann August 2020

“Had not been cleaned at all floors bathrooms mould urine .”

- Ann, August 2020
Andrew August 2020

“The cottage itself was good, with a great location close to a pebbly beach and the coastal path into Weymouth.”

The whole cottage was comfortable and really well equipped, with good sized rooms and a decent garden. The driveway is VERY steep, which perhaps should be noted somewhere on the description. However, we had a few issues that would be easily solvable by the owners, namely: (1) the curtains in both the double and twin rooms have stains on them which, if they cannot be cleaned, should be replaced; (2) the mattresses in the twin room are really poor, the springs could be felt even by a light child, so much so that we had to pad the base with one of the duvets (good job it was a warm week and we didn't need the duvet!) - again, these mattresses should be replaced asap; (4) overall the cottage was clean, however there were parts (eg behind the TV in the main bedroom) that were pretty dusty and should be thoroughly cleaned, particularly in the current climate. However, none of these issues affected our holiday at all, just suggestions to improve the experience for others staying there this year.

- Andrew, August 2020
Val August 2020

“Fantastic location.”

A few minutes walk to the pebble beach which had areas of sand for digging at low tide. The tide only varied by a few metres so always able to be near the children when they were in the sea. Pleasant 40 minute stroll along beach front into town. Harvester opposite the house . We had an Asda food delivery on day of arrival which made us self sufficient for the week which helped during this time of anxiety about covid 19. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment but we took our pressure cooker with us. The house was lovely. Views across Weymouth and to the sea from the upstairs rooms made it an easy place to spent time relaxing. The house was clean but thick layers of dust under and behind furniture and in corners so it could do with a thorough clean at some point. Good facilities in the house but no remote for the dvd player and after a search we found the washing machine in the garage. A bit more info on appliances would have been nice but we worked them out in the end. We really enjoyed our week at Bowleaze view. It had everything we wanted and we have already booked for next year as in these uncertain times it will be lovely to know that we have a comfortable house and quiet beach to bring the grandkids to next year.

- Val, August 2020
Suzanne July 2020

“The location of the property was perfect for the beach, visiting Weymouth town and generally exploring the Dorset coast.”

The inside of the property left a lot to be desired given that we were only the third group into the property since lockdown eased. Where do I start - all the below reported at the time to Dream Cottages who really did not seem to care The dishwasher was leaking, reported to dream cottages who sent an engineer the next day who fixed what he thought to be the problem which was a split dishwasher arm with elastic bands and was going to return the next day with replacement parts- never return. The cups were so badly stained inside I had to go out and buy new. When we lifted plates out of the cupboards some were dirty and other had chips in them. Before being able to enjoy a meal we had to wash the crockery and glasses since we could not be convinced they were clean and safe to use given the current Covid climate. Not what I expected to do at the start of my holiday given we had to allow an extra two hours for cleaning before we could check in. The carpet on the stairs and landing was extremely badly stained. The curtain in the second double bedroom had what appeared to be make up on them. Every where you looked there was cobwebs and all the skirting boards where covered in dust. Some of the lights in the main bathroom did not work. The property advertised having patio furniture, there was none outside and only after hunting round we found it in the garage, not what I expect in July. This property should have been absolutely immaculate given the fact it had been closed from the end of March to July 2020. Attention to detail goes along way. Given the above I will not be staying again and would not recommend if your cleanliness expectations are at the higher end like mine. Given all the above disappointments we had a fantastic week in Weymouth/Dorset and the weather made up for the property.

Gail September 2019

“The house was excellent and suited our purposes especially with regards to the views from the upstairs rooms,, the handiness of the Harvester across the road and bus stops into town from outside.”

Our concerns were over the information booklet provided by the owner. We tried for three days to get the WiFi router to provide the internet but gave up. We were therefore unable to plan some visits and best routes,, buy tickets online and check weather, Swanage train times etc. The cooker was set on 'auto' and there were no instructions so we missed one meal until we managed to experiment and fathom it out. There were no instructions on white goods as it said there should be. I was going to ring Dream Cottages on the land line but again that didn't exist as it said it did. I phoned Dream Cottages from my mobile but gave up after 10 minutes of waiting for an answer after pressing several option numbers. We recycled where we could based on what we do at home but there was no information. We presumed that one of the bins was for recycling but which one was a guess. All of this was disappointing considering the very nice house, but it didn't spoil our holiday as we found ways round the lack of information

“This house is lovely, very well situated, great to have a garden too.”

It has everything you need for a holiday home. The house is upside down, so all bedrooms are on the ground floor, they are all a good size. The main bedroom has a lovely little en suite and patio doors that open out on to a balcony. The main bathroom is a great size The garden is south facing, we were very lucky in our week away in that we had great weather, the house got very very warm during the day and we needed to shut curtains to try and keep it cool, we took a fan with us for the bedrooms which was welcomed at night time. We walked into Weymouth everyday, which is an easy flat walk of about 40-45 mins and then spent the day on the beach, a steady walk back early evening and then a lovely meal at the house to end the day. Thank you, this property is everything we expected and a lovely home.

The property

Bowleaze View is a Dorset holiday home in the desirable Bowleaze Cove area of Weymouth, just seconds from a beach.

This upside-down house ensures that you can enjoy the beautiful views of Bowleaze Cove and over to Portland, along with the RSPB nature reserve to the back of the property.
