“The house is lovely.”

We are definitely going to book again...soon! We have booked with Dream Cottages 7 times and have never been disappointed. Thank you.

“This is a lovely cottage, spacious and makes excellent use of the space.”

It is well located for the harbour side where we took many boat trips, the beach and local shops and bars. We even managed to walk from the cottage to Portland! It took about an hour but it was a nice walk! We had a thoroughly good time! The only slight negative is the parking - there is no guaranteed parking and the road where the cottage is unfortunately isn't wide enough to park and allow other cars past. We did manage to find somewhere to park on a surrounding road which took a couple of attempts. We didn't dare move the car all week as parking did seem to be at a premium! Everything however was within walking distance so it wasn't really needed, although we had hoped to visit Bennetts Water Gardens, the Swannery at Abbotsbury and Exeter but we didn't wish to lose the parking space! Besides there was plenty to do in Weymouth itself so all in all a very enjoyable holiday!

“The best holiday home we have ever stayed in.”

Close to everything and very clean and tidy. Only down side is parking. There is no parking space for you on arrival. We did park in ground nearby but had to block to local residents in so not so good. Mid week was guaranteed space but the not knowing meant we didn’t take car out all week something we have never done before so stayed in Weymouth which wasn’t so bad. Other properties around do seem to have an area you can book so maybe the owners of Seahorse Cottage could get something like this going forward. For location and a fantasist home would give 10 out of 10.

“This cottage is situated in a Perfect location in Weymouth.”

We throughly enjoyed staying in this beautiful cottage and we can't wait to visit again. Being in the old harbour near Brewers Quay/Hope Square was ideal for us. Weymouth is such a beautiful location which we can't believe we have never visited before!

“Fantastic. Just as the picture showed.”

Beautiful part of the country.

“Lovely cottage and great location.”

However, the parking is an issue and should REFLECT in the price of holiday rental as I think some people would find this a problem. I did phone up prior to leaving as I realised there was no parking included. Lady said there was street parking but on a "first come" basis. The road outside actual rental is only one car wide, and then becomes slightly wider, two car wide - just. We parked on the 2 car width section and carried our belongings to cottage. We didn't move it for 4 days as we walked, and also caught the train to other towns. But we used the car thereafter. We were very lucky for parking for next couple of days upon our return. However, on the Friday evening there was no parking whatsoever and we had to leave it a good 5 minutes walk away. That wasn't too bad but I was aware we had to load car up on Saturday as we were leaving. Fortunately we were up early, and my husband noticed someone leave and rushed to bring our car back. With no "easy" available parking it somewhat alters your experience. It stops those "oh lets pop to...……………." moments as if you have a parking space you are aware that if you do pop somewhere, even to the local shop, then the likelihood of finding a parking space upon your return is doubtful.

“We absolutely loved Seahorse Cottage and would love to return.”

The location was ideal for walking to town and the beach. Was very clean and had everything we needed and dog friendly! Parking is on a first come, first served basis so it did mean leaving the car further up the road from the property but we did manage to get a space on the days we had travelled out of Weymouth. The only negative comment we can say about this booking is that the cleaner turned up 40 minutes before departure time to see if the key had been left in the safe deposit box and the clean laundry was also dropped off for them. We have not experienced this before when previously booking with you.
