“The location of this first floor flat is excellent with views over the activities in the harbour.”

The accommodation and facilities within the flat were generally good, but a hair drier would have been expected. However the main problem was the stale smell in the entrance and staircase from the street which was awful due to total lack of ventilation and quite off-putting. Also the cleanliness was patchy as the bathroom was very clean but kitchen and living room surfaces were sticky on arrival.

“A great little apartment in a perfect quite location right alongside the harbour, with a large patio area, perfect for sitting out ion in the evening overlooking the harbour boats & watching the sun set.”

Town centre just a few minutes walk. We are a family of 4 with 2 adult sons & didn't have an issue with space, dining table a bit cramped but we expected that from viewing the pictures, but we all managed to get round it. The apartment was very clean, modern and in good order, a few minor issue like the double bedroom door not latching shut & the TV stand being broken but that was it, the sofas were not the most comfortable but then we didn't spend a lot of time sitting in the lounge. Parking was not an issue for us in late April as we always found a space outside or adjacent to the apartment. I would recommend this property, especially for the location.

Julia April 2022

“We had a great stay, excellent location and parking permit so useful.”

Flat spotlessly clean and kitchen well equipped. Views from all windows lovely of the harbour. We sat out on the terrace and watched the boats, fisherman and children crabbing. We were 3 adults and 2 teenagers, plenty for everyone to do considering we were 3 generations. Would recommend and definitely would return.

“Nice Apartment and well appointed with all facilities you would expect.”

Great location overlooking the harbour as you have your breakfast. Convenient for the town cafe and pubs and the many restaurants. Highly recommend Tarps.

“The pictures taken of the property made it look bigger.”

It’s a small property and I think if 5 people had stayed it would be too much. However I would definitely stay there again, the location is perfect and the bay window in the living room was a key feature. The beds were also extremely comfortable. I look forward to staying here again. Thank you.

Rosalind September 2021

“This is an extremely lovely property , it was my second stay in Tarps and I have already booked for 2022.”

would recommend it to anyone with walking difficulties as has stair lift and flat walk along waterside to harbour, plenty to see.

Lynne July 2021

“I have stayed at Tarps Apartment for the last 5 years + and it has always been a lovely restful stay.”

I am disabled and having the stairlift really helps. The apartment itself is excellent with views over the harbour. I use a mobility scooter and the landlady makes sure the electric socket is on outside to enable me to charge it every day. When we arrived the apartment smelt clean and everything was there to make our holiday lovely.

“Amazing location, maybe sun loungers on the terrace.”

Mattreses we’re quite hard for our liking. Overall though well worth the money and we would return.

Jane May 2021

“Apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped.”

Good central location particularly if you don't have your own transport. Parking was difficult even with free permit, not many spaces and they filled as soon as they became available. Otherwise an enjoyable break.

- Jane, May 2021
Carole May 2021

“Loved the flat - comfortable and attractive and lacked nothing for us.”

Enjoyed the harbour/marina views and close proximity to the town centre.

“Stayed at this property many times, good location close to Town Bridge with harbour view while having breakfast or from the patio.”

well appointed kitchen, though do not use oven much as usually dine out in one of the many restaurants in close proximity. Parking permit for 1 car and usually get space close to property

Christine August 2019

“Location was perfect and we could watch the herring gulls attempting to pinch fish and chips from people while eating ours from the security of the flat overlooking the harbour.”

There is a stair lift provided which meant that hubby didn't have to struggle with the stairs but there is nowhere to store a mobility scooter. The shops are close by so we didn't need to buy a whole week's worth of food and store it. We would stay here again in spite of the negative points following. Some crockery was dirty and needed washing before use but then it became evident that the dish washer was inefficient. As it was a self catering apartment, I did expect some cleaning products to be provided but had to purchase it: hence the imperfect facilities score. I paid for long stay in a car park for the week as the parking permit details were not available before the day and the location of these areas were not clear on the permit.

- Christine, August 2019
Patricia February 2019

“Lovely flat, well equipped.”

The reason I didn’t give it 10, was the keys were locked in the apartment when we arrived. All though we arrived 30 minutes early, it was used as an excuse!!! If I waited till 3pm, no one would of come so I still would have had to call. Then when we got into flat and closed the door, the lock jammed & we could not get out!! So had to put in another call & wait for the door to be open from the outside. As the agent said and I quote “these things happen” Then we found there was no towels left for us, so no one could shower or change for our booking that night it was gone 18.30 before towels arrived.... also as the flat was not occupied for a while, it was freezing inside. Heating had to be left on for 24hours to get the temperature up to 19.5... This all happen on the first day... normally with Dream Cottages the check in is smooth & straight forward, but not this time. I’ve been using dream cottages for many years now, but I think I will find another agent, as Sykes Cottages is based in Chester & does not have local knowledge of the area.

“Booked on previous visits to Weymouth.”

Surprise this time, new kitchen and shower fitted to high standard. Good location just away from night time noise of Weymouth night life but well placed for the town and bridge to the other side of the harbour also good view over the harbour. Definitely recommend Tarps for your Weymouth stay

It was very convenient to all local shops, beach etc. It would have been nice to have table and chairs on the patio area outside, but that is not really a critisim,just an added bonus.
