“Great location - but tricky parking although parking permit provided was a great help”

- Mr Vokes, August 2019
“Very convenient location for harbour/shops beach etc – easy walking distance.”

Lovely artworks on the walls. No views from windows (which we knew and not a problem for us). Mostly very clean and acceptable. The main drawback is the parking issue. A few times I drove round and round the adjoining streets looking for a Residents parking bay, but all full. Eventually used a pay car park for the week near the Pavilion. Kitchen well equipped – apart only two dishwasher tablets. Had to buy these and washing pods in supermarket (no doubt this will be addressed). Welcome tray with tea/coffee/biscuits etc. Beds soft but comfortable, Good hot water and shower/bath. Internet speeds – download ok but upload only 0.2mbps…..impossible to add anything of substance to a server. Huge TV. Also a plus is the large Leggo set for children. When it comes to good value I’m not sure. I think it’s probably on a par with other properties, but I just think they are all a bit pricey for what they are. For slightly less money per week, last year we had two different apartments in the Swiss Alps. Much better quality and surroundings– although Weymouth is better than I expected – and busier.

- Mr Pritchard, August 2019
“Spacious & well laid out.”

Comfortable throughout with lovely little extras like crabbing nets, dvds and duplo in the cupboards. We had a query & Dream were quick to respond & owners were fantastically helpful. We were there during the seafood festival & were impressed that noise intrusion was non-existent. Parking was tricky but not unachievable.

- Mrs Rose, July 2019
“We had an absolutely brilliant time.”

The apartment was beautifully clean and really lovely. The beds were super comfy and it was finished to a high standard. It was a great location, giving easy access to the entire Weymouth harbour, town and beach. We had a problem with parking though as we couldn’t find anywhere to park in Zone F for the entire period we were away until the last evening! So it was expensive as we had to pay for parking for the entire stay (which sadly resulted in a fine as we couldn’t extend on JustPark on the first day as we didn’t know the code and didn’t get back to the car in time). The only thing we’d like to add about the apartment is there were no oven gloves and only one tea towel. We didn’t think this was acceptable to be honest. It would have been good to have had a couple of washing tablets left as well (like you did with the dishwasher) so we bought our own and have left them in the apartment for the next occupants. All that said we would definitely return to this apartment but probably not during peak periods due to the parking issue (we have a Range Rover so wouldn’t have been able to safely park in Helen Lane as it’s so narrow even if there’d been a space!).

- Ms Marlow, May 2019
“Lovely place everything a family could wish for on a holiday.”

Location wise is probably unbeatable 30 seconds to the harbour front 5 minute walk (if that) to the beach. My wife and I loved it and our children even more so. Stayed August 2018

- Mr Andrew Briggs,
“Apartment had everything we needed, very clean and in an excellent location.”

Stayed August 2018

- Mrs Diane Lomas,
“The apartment was in tip top condition and had been fitted out with everything you could need.”

We were in a prime location just behind the harbour, so everything was on our doorstep.. We would book with you again and also recommend you to anyone else. We needed this break and were not disappointed. Stayed March 2018

The property

The Old Malthouse is situated near the heart of Weymouth's town centre, located in a quiet lane, moments from the Old Harbour, and close to the popular beach.

The apartment takes its name from the original use of the building as part of a malt warehouse and still retains many of the characteristics of the building such as solid stone walls which give the building a feeling of sturdiness. The entrance to the Old Malthouse is in a side turning close to the town centre.

The property accommodates up to four guests in two bedrooms so is perfect for a small family or couples. Step into the hallway with stairs rising to the apartment’s first floor where you will find a spacious social area with two comfy sofas that benefits from three large windows and the rest of the apartment has a modern nautical feel owing to the subtle decoration in shades of blue and cream.

Enter through the arc of the sitting area and you will find a well-equipped kitchen with dining table for four people.

Browse through the rooms with splendid paintings of wildlife and some nice beach-themed decorations whilst listening to the radio. Only a few minutes’ walk away is the long award-winning beach spanning around 3 miles with fine sand at one end and pebbles at another.

Stay all day bathing in the sun, or venture along the promenade starting with a visit to Jurassic Skyline offering amazing 360° panoramic views of Weymouth Bay, Isle of Portland and Jurassic coast.

Along the promenade you will find a lot of amusements for children and adults alike.

Make sure to try out some delicious Dorset’s ice-cream.

Whilst the beach and harbour are a short stroll away, venturing further there are many attractions worth visiting such as the highly regarded Monkey World, Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door and Portland Bill Lighthouse.

This property is excellently positioned to be in walking distance of most of Weymouth's attractions and restaurants and as such is the perfect property to stay in for a while.
