“Great location with super views over the harbour and close to the beach.”

Modern kitchen and bathroom facilities. Car parking is a bit tight but that’s a very minor point. We would recommend and book again without hesitation.

The shower leaked and microwave was dirty but the office staff at Weymouth as before could not have been more helpful . Will definitely stay again . Really lovely flat had a wonderful holiday .

“On a minor point an ice cube tray in the freezer would be useful.”

Also, when compared to other self catering properties we have stayed in, maybe a couple more general purpose kitchen items be available/included eg kitchen roll, liquid hand wash, foil/cling film. Lovely spacious apartment with wonderful harbour views - would definitely stay here again

Gaynor September 2020

“We love Weymouth and have been there a number of times.”

We've stayed at Tradewinds Three times now and love it. It's extremely clean very nicely furnished and the view of the harbour couldn't be better.

“The seal in the washer was broken but we did report it”

Laura July 2020

“This flat has such amazing views from the huge window in the lounge.”

Its actually the only holiday ever where we didn't put the TV on at any time - no need as so much was going on outside. To sit in the window watching yachts and fishing boats go past all day was very relaxing.

- Laura, July 2020
E January 2020

“Really good service from your team with a late booking, the day before the holiday start.”

Called to let us know about a missing mattress in case this would be a problem and offered to get one delivered immediately. Very helpful instructions for arrival and finding the allocated parking. The flat was just lovely, perfect location on the Harbour. Everything we needed was provided.

Mrs Osborne September 2019

“The team at Dream Cottages tried to deal with several problems eg: Fixed the broken blind in the second bedroom;they sent someone to fix mould in shower area( this proved a waste of time as he grouted over the mould, so every time we had a shower the bath ended up full of grout!”

). Their were no door shelves in the fridge, which we were told had to be ordered.

- Mrs Osborne, September 2019
Mr Bulman September 2019

“Access to the rear garden and steps to the car park space from tradewinds would have mate a huge difference to us.”

Somewhere to hang some washing, put the bbq and get luggage/ bikes from the car instead of having to walk all of the way around. Apart from that, no complaints!! Loved it. We used to stay in these years ago and they are a vast improvement

- Mr Bulman, September 2019
Chris July 2019

“The main problem with Tradewinds is disposing of rubbish.”

It has to be taken to the bins by the car park which involves down2 lots of stairs, along the road and up two steep hills. This can be very difficult and luckily a lady from Dream Cottages helped me by taking it for me.

- Chris, July 2019
Caroline June 2019

“We wanted a relaxing holiday in lovely surroundings which is exactly what we got.”

The view from the window is exactly what you see from the advert. Every minute of every day there is something different to look at. Good selection of pubs and restaurants. Exceeded our expectations. Thank you. We hope to be back soon.

- Caroline, June 2019
Deborah April 2019

“What a perfect place, beautiful view, right near to the town, the beach and the harbour.”

Was a lot bigger then we expected as well and had everything we needed, even a travel cot for our 21 month old. The beds were really comfortable and the shower nice and powerful too. One of the blinds in the twin room was broken however as I bring a black out blind anyway it didn’t matter. Would definitely recommend and be going back

- Deborah, April 2019
Samantha April 2019

“Pros: Well appointed flat, comfortable beds.”

We spent a LOT of time sitting in the bay window watching the boats go by. Excellent location, we used Weymouth as a base to visit Lulworth Cove, Durdle Dor, Nothe Fort, Monkey World, Old Harry's Rock, Corfe Castle and spent our downtime in the many coffee shops around the harbour (The Library Café, just downstairs from the flat, is great, as is the Harbour Café on opposite side of harbour). Cons: As a family we like to relax and watch TV together, especially on cooler evening. The TV was not a great model. The remote did not 'talk' to the TV at all, it was not a battery problem. By Thursday the TV had scrambled the channels and all we could get was interference. This was swiftly resolved on Friday by the agent, but by the evening the remote had stopped again. I would expect, in this technical age, for there to be a smart TV, thus allowing for Netflix etc to be used. Insufficient hanging space for damp towels.

“This apartment is all about a fabulous bay window .”

It looks out on the Harbour side, the lifting bridge, the far headland, the sea, the breakwater, lots of boats ( of many sizes ), which come and go, and the rise and fall of the tides. The Harbour side restaurants and pubs, are largely on the opposite quay, and well illuminated at night, as is the lifting bridge & old town beyond. The sun rise , and sun setting, give added drama to this wonderful view. Super wet fish shop on the other quay. It is like a deluxe pavement cafe site! In your home. The apartment is just great in most respects. Parking is less than easy, but it is a free space! A little walk away, perhaps 800/900 yards, Unloading the car has to be rushed, as it is a no parking area, except for spaces that are always occupied! The double bedroom is dark, with little natural light, The douvets were super warm. The TV needs careful handling, or it refuses to work, ( we had to get the agents to help us ). Great place, we really enjoyed our time there.

The property

Tradewinds is a first-floor apartment located within a period Grade II listed building in arguably one of the best locations in Weymouth, Dorset. It has been finished to a high standard and is a comfortable holiday base for couples or families looking for a holiday home with beautiful views and close to the town centre. The Georgian bay window in the living room allows panoramic views with bustling daytime harbour life immediately on your doorstep; yet in the evening the location is on the quieter side of the town and you can enjoy a walk along the harbour with its lights lit up. Light and airy rooms that allow a lot of sunshine in during the day, boast comfortable beds and sofas for you to relax and feel as if you were home.

Browse through the artwork on the walls showcasing beautiful locations of UK. Popular Brewers Quay with its handful of pubs and restaurants giving an alfresco feel is only a couple of minutes’ walk away from the apartment.

A five-minute stroll along the harbour and over the town bridge is the town centre and the main beach is just a short amble further through the town.

Weymouth’s beach is an award-winning sandy beach stretching three miles with spectacular, stretching across the horizon coastline views.

Lay on the beach and soak up the sun, take your children to the Pavillion or Punch and Judy shows, donkey rides or just have a wander around the town. Dorset countryside and coast are dotted with charming little villages such as Burton Bradstock and West Bexington to the West and Sutton Poyntz, Ringstead, Chaldon Herring to the East with thatched cottages in beautiful winding lanes.

The Jurassic coastline has many attractions that would make a wonderful day out – Durdle Door and Lulworth cove with Oswald’s and Man O’ War bays nearby, perfect for bathing as they are not as crowded. A short drive to the West will take you to the fossil hunters paradise Lyme Regis, Charmouth and West Bay with its lovely harbour and gorgeous golden cliffs. Tradewinds is a lovely getaway for couples or small families looking for a quiet holiday home but still close to the busy town centre and beach.

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!
