“Only stayed for a short 2 night weekend but really enjoyed the cottage.”
Our party was 4 adults so I searched for a long time and Firkin Cottage was the only one that seemed to have 2 bathrooms and a downstairs loo.
The house is well equipped and the welcome pack of tea, coffee, biscuits, chocolate and a pint of milk plus loo rolls, washing up liquid, dishwasher tabs and dishcloths were very much appreciated. The cottage is in a fantastic position and only a short walk to the harbour, the coast, and Nothe Fort. No parking but his wasn’t a problem- we unloaded on ...
Our party was 4 adults so I searched for a long time and Firkin Cottage was the only one that seemed to have 2 bathrooms and a downstairs loo.
The house is well equipped and the welcome pack of tea, coffee, biscuits, chocolate and a pint of milk plus loo rolls, washing up liquid, dishwasher tabs and dishcloths were very much appreciated. The cottage is in a fantastic position and only a short walk to the harbour, the coast, and Nothe Fort. No parking but his wasn’t a problem- we unloaded on the street(very narrow) and then drove to the Nothe Car Park just a 5 minute walk away- it was easy to extend our parking using the JustPark app. Having said that if you don’t have a car and want to just potter about in Weymouth you couldn’t find a better property. The cottage garden is sweet and south facing with table and chairs and a rotary drier if you need to do washing. Our only slightly negative comments would be most of the Venetian blinds have seen better days and are quite dirty and quite a few wouldn’t tilt properly ,the 2 double bedrooms on the front of the property get the morning sun so curtains in addition to the white blinds would be better otherwise it is light at 4.a.m in the summer ! The shower on the top floor ( of 3 floors) could do with an intense clean around the doors and trim. We contacted Sykes beforehand to find out if there was an iron and ironing board ( not stated in details) as we were going to a Wedding…home now and still waiting for the reply !! In case you are wondering there’s is one ! All in all we felt it was good value and spacious enough for 4 adults, and would definitely return on another trip to Weymouth.
