“A small welcome pack would have been nice.”

No Oven gloves. Could do with extension leads as some of the plugs are behind beds, sofa etc.

“Lovely cottage, well located, although parking is tight and awkward.”

Reaver is a lovely cottage, very bright and clean, well-maintained and with almost everything you could need. We found the wi-fi completely un-useable, but we always travel with our own wi-fi hotspot as we need reliable, speedy internet connection for checking in with work. My husband needed to work 1.5 days of our holiday, and if we'd relied on Reaver's wi-fi, it would have been a problem. It was lovely to have two full bathrooms, plus the cloakroom downstairs, and all were very clean. Plenty of towels provided, and small cakes of soap for each bathroom sink. Lots of hot water, and good pressure in the showers. Beds were very comfortable, the duvets in the twin bedroom were cosier than that in the main bedroom, which suited us as I need a cooler bed to have a good sleep, while my husband needs a warmer bed. Kitchen is very well kitted out, aside from needing a much better tin opener (there are two, and neither worked very well). Be aware that in order to shut the fridge completely, it needs to make a sort of squeaky, friction noise, as the door is not completely aligned - not an issue, but if you forget, the fridge may be left a bit ajar. Television is Freeview, but appears to have some of the streaming services as well (we did not use any of those). There is a small wooden deck outside the front door, and 2 new chairs with cushions and table were delivered during our stay - lovely and comfortable for sitting outside in the sun. The parking is great to have, but it is very tight and awkward - the distance between the terrace of houses and the garage area makes the manoeuvring a bit tricky. If you are not comfortable or confident with parking in quite limited space, or you have a big car, Reaver's parking space might be a challenge for you. For us, we hadn't planned to use the car more than once, and in the end we arrived, parked, and didn't move the car until we left again, so it was okay. The parking space has a pillar to work around, and bins at the back. We like this area of Weymouth to stay in, and Reaver's specific location was great - out the pedestrian gate through the car park to Hope Square in about 2 minutes, or to the coastal walks starting at Newton's Cove in even less. Ideal for getting to all of Weymouth's shops, attractions, and drinking/dining options on foot, so very relaxing to not have to be driving all the while.

“Still as good in Weymouth as it was when I was younger.”

Plenty of places to eat and drink plus people are very friendly. Small shop just down the road for when you need bits and pieces. Hope to go again in 2021.

“The location of Reaver in the old area of Weymouth is a real delight, as well as the security and parking on the site.”

The property is warm and everything we needed was supplied, with all decor, furnishings and kitchen needs in excellent condition. A relaxed comfortable atmosphere. It was lovely to be in a mews that had been part of the local history, as well as easy walking to all places of interest. Direct and easy connection with the main roads through and out of town was a bonus. Just a small point of surprise was the very lightweight cover on the double bed, I do think a reserve extra throw should be supplied. I used my own extra blanket. Also some better explanation in use of technology controls for the TV etc, along with a tourist town map leaflet would be a welcome addition. We had a delightful stay and hope to book again in the future, it's a great place for days out into beautiful Dorset.

Mr Coward October 2020

“Our third consecutive year at Reaver and we are already discussing which week to book for next year.”

A super property with everything that we need and nothing that we don't (although we don't get around to using the washing machine!). I do miss the old "Pre-Covid" welcome pack, but such is life. See you next year (virus permitting).

“The outside table needs to be replaced to be in keeping with the high standard of the rest of the property.”

The property

An attractive two bedroom, mews style cottage near Hope Square in Weymouth.

These attractive mews cottages are light, airy and tasteful in design.

Once inside the property you automatically sense the contemporary vibe with the light blues and greys of the decor.

Sit and relax with a glass of wine in the beautiful sitting room or prepare a tasty snack in the kitchen to be enjoyed with loved ones.

With two bedrooms this is the ideal holiday home for a small family or couple.

Echoes of the magnificent Shire Horses can be heard when you take a holiday at The Mews.

The garage areas are where the Shire Horses were stabled until a number of years ago.

Near to the Brewers Quay and accessed via remotely controlled electric gates, you can park your car and forget about driving throughout your memorable visit to Weymouth.

We recommend that you sample some of the mouth watering fish and gourmet restaurants along the harbourside and the fish and chips are a must!

A quiet evening stroll along the Nothe Gardens with the shadows of the lights dancing across the sea will stay in your memory through the dark winter nights. Reaver is just perfect for a small family to enjoy a holiday near the sea.

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: Very limited space when in Bedroom 2 when second bed is in use.
