“The house is lovely and had everything we needed for a fantastic holiday.”

parking was easy, location fantastic and beds so comfy. We had a lovely relaxing time and didn't want to leave.

parking was easy, location fantastic and beds so comfy. We had a lovely relaxing time and didn't want to leave. There were 2 improvements we would suggest. The tray in the bottom of the fridge door needs repairing and more crockery and cutlery are needed so you don't have to put the dish washer on half full.

- Mrs Barnes, August 2020
“Location was brilliant quiet but close enough to harbour and seafront”

- Miss Gould, August 2020
“We stayed at Amaranta from 25/07/20 to 08/08/20.”

The house was found to be spotlessly clean and was well equipped with everything we needed and the recently refurbished bathroom and toilet were excellent. We could not fault this property. The location is fantastic with the beach, shops etc within walking distance and perfect for exploring beautiful Weymouth and the surrounding area. We loved this holiday so much that we have already booked again for next year

- Mr Warneck, July 2020
“This was a lovely house with everything you need.”

The location is ideal, because it is quiet but close to the harbour and coastal walks. The one thing I would change in the house, would be the location of the dining table. There would be plenty of room for one behind the sofa. This would make more room in the kitchen. The beds were very comfortable, with plenty of wardrobe space in the bedrooms. I would recommend this holiday home .

- Mrs Williams, July 2020
“Furniture both settees are very low, not good for the elderly, as are the toilets in bathroom and downstairs they are very low.”

Steep slope and steps up to cottage again not for the elderly. Apart from those points nice cottage for young family to stay at.

- Mr Walker, August 2019
“Amaranta was idealy placed, very close to be able to walk into town and very near Brewers Quay.”

It was a bonus having its own car parking place. The house was very clean and well equipped apart from the fact it could benefit from having more cutlery. The shower curtain definitely needs replacing. We had a minor problem with the downstairs toilet seat, we reported it to Dream Cottages whose headquarters was just down the road, by the time we had returned from our day out it had been replaced, very impressive.

- Mrs Hamilton, June 2019
“Although we had a nice holiday there were a few points that disappointed at the property particularly taking into account the amount paid as this was not a budget break and a comparison to previous bookings.”

The property is looking a little tired in places and could do with redecoration in the living room and downstairs wc. There are loose floor tiles in the upstairs toilet and everyone should be ashamed of the state of the shower curtain. Surely a replacement can be made. The carpet is wearing a little in places. The garden should look smarter as it did not match up to the photos. The old rug in the lounge has seen better days. The bedrooms were comfortable and light which was a blessing and the kitchen was fairly well equipped. We had a lovely time in Weymouth but will not return to this property.

- Mrs Mason-fillery, June 2019
“A parking permit for a nearby car park would have been very useful as we had 2 cars and The Maltings was all double yellow lines !”

The key box seemed temperamental so a spare key for my son and his wife would have helped enormously .

- Mrs Ravey, June 2019
“Lovely accommodation and had a very enjoyable stay.”

The house is ideally situated. Close enough for a stroll to Brewer's Quay, the beach and shops etc. 2 mins up the road to a lovely large grassed area overlooking the sea with beautiful views which was great for dog walking.The house was in a very quiet area. We have visited Weymouth many times and this property has been in one of the best locations. We hope to return. Thank you.

- Mr Kelly, May 2019
“Great central location 15minutes walk to Weymouth shops, 25 minutes walk to the sea front.”

Easy access to beautiful Dorset County side and coast. We all enjoyed the country walks particularly our two dogs.

- Mr Dunsford, April 2019

The property

This is a pretty modern house on the popular but quiet Maltings residential development situated on the site of the old Devenish brewery just behind Weymouth’s famous harbour.

The ground floor offers a well-equipped kitchen/diner, perfect for cooking a lovely dinner and then enjoying it together at the dining table before relaxing in the comfy sitting room.

Up stairs you will find three lovely comfortable bedrooms.

The enclosed patio garden is a nice calming setting, with an area of lawn perfect for the pets to enjoy the space.

Set over several levels it has gated access to the higher terraces, a perfect place to catch the last rays of the days sun.

Amaranta sits in the lovely Maltings housing development just 2-3 minutes’ walk from Brewers Quay and the Harbour in Weymouth where you will find lots of restaurants, pubs and cafes as well as a local shop for all your daily papers and postcards.

Walk around the harbour and over the lifting town bridge into the town centre which sits alongside the award-winning sandy beach with it’s shallow waters, perfect for those sandy holiday memories every child should have.

When you have had enough of the sand between your toes Newton’s cove is on the doorstep of this lovely holiday cottage and offers, rock pools and shingle beach and a lovely walk with views out towards Portland, and beyond.

Find the Historic Nothe Fort and explore the meandering footpath of The Nothe Gardens.

There are plenty of family seaside activities within walking distance, don’t forget to catch the land train to the sea life Centre from the pavilion or see the sand sculptures.

If you want to explore further afield we are lucky to have the incredible Monkey world just a short 25 minute drive away.

For those who want to experience the outdoors, you can sail, wind surf, kayak, open water swim, fish, jet ski and ride on a rib in Weymouth Bay.

The Adventures are endless and there are enough for all the family to enjoy.

About the location

BREWERS QUAY HARBOUR

Dorchester 8.7 miles; West Lulworth 15.8 miles

Brewers Quay is the old Victorian brewery situated at the heart of the harbour, in Weymouth, Dorset. Much of the grade II listed complex and surrounding brewery buildings date from the late 1800 early 1900’s and many have stones inlaid commemorating their construction year. This area is now a popular destination with many restaurants, café and bars, creating a vibrant culture, where you can relax with a drink and watch the world go by. Tucked away down the harbourside streets, you will find original Tudor harbour buildings, estimated to have been built in 1600 and well worth a visit, with a very interesting history to share. You will also find the Weymouth Museum, with some incredible exhibitions, and the harbour is also home to the lifting bridge, where you can watch the luxury yachts head out to sea, and then walk over the bridge to the town's winding streets of boutique shops and the seafront esplanade and beach. There is more to this seaside town than meets the eye; Brewers Quay is a much-loved holiday destination in Weymouth!
