    “Fenders is perfect location, the house is lovely and was well equipped.”

    Bed was very comfortable. Sadly the house wasn’t clean. As soon as we came through the front door, we were met with a plastic wrapper and lots of fur and fluff. I also had to clean the downstairs toilet and clean out the shower drain which was full of old soap and hair etc. I was wheezy for most of the week and I think the fur may have been cats. The sofa cushions need a thorough clean as do the carpets. I’m not one to complain but having read the previous comments, I had to agree and ...

    Bed was very comfortable. Sadly the house wasn’t clean. As soon as we came through the front door, we were met with a plastic wrapper and lots of fur and fluff. I also had to clean the downstairs toilet and clean out the shower drain which was full of old soap and hair etc. I was wheezy for most of the week and I think the fur may have been cats. The sofa cushions need a thorough clean as do the carpets. I’m not one to complain but having read the previous comments, I had to agree and was sad that no steps had been taken to put this all right. I would sincerely like to stay here again but I won’t until there is some assurance that the issues have been put right. I should also appreciate feedback on this matter.

The property

A pretty terraced cottage located in a slightly elevated position behind the old harbour and Brewers Quay in Weymouth.

Full of character it is a traditional stone cottage, cosy yet contemporary with a sunny patio garden which has a variety of attractive foliage. Fenders is the ideal accommodation from which to base your holiday in Weymouth, tucked away in a central Weymouth location, and easily in walking distance to many alfresco restaurants, cafes and bars from which you can relax and watch the boats as they arrive and leave harbour.

Leading you up to the front door and into the lovely sitting room are a few stone steps, unwind in comfort after a busy day of Dorset adventures on the corner sofa. Set in a delightful space, the dining room provides a comfortable setting to enjoy meals. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare wonderful meals.

Downstairs there is a spacious wet room. The comfortable master bedroom has a double bed and the second bedroom twin singles.

There is an additional WC upstairs. Just a short stroll away is the little Newton's Cove beach and Nothe Gardens which offer delightful panoramic views of Portland Harbour as the sun goes down over Chesil Beach in the distance.

The main beach and town in Weymouth is only a 5-10 minute walk away.

Situated on the Jurassic coastline, you are in easy driving distance to some of the most renowned fossil hunting venues in the world along with the Dorset Coastal Path which provides the access through which to view the fantastic Dorset coastline.

A fender is a floating bumper used when sailing to stop a boat banging onto something and causing damage.

Fenders is the ideal holiday home for your family or small group of friends to holiday and discover Weymouth and the surrounding Jurassic Coast.

Guests to supply own cot linen, if required.

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!

Note: Nearest pay and display council car park is Nothe Car Park DT4 8UD a 10 minute walk
