    “This is our second stay at Castle Cove Cottage Pros : The location is absolutely beautiful and we made good use of the beach on the few sunny days we had .”

    The cottage was clean and well equipped with plenty of towels . There is a Coop just 5 minutes walk ( uphill ) which has everything you need so no need to bring loads of supplies unless you want to . Cons : There were a few niggles from our first stay which had been resolved , but a couple still remained ie: The master bedroom curtain does not block out any light - I woke up at sunrise every morning which was around 04:30 during our stay . A blackout curtain and blind are definitely needed ...

    The cottage was clean and well equipped with plenty of towels . There is a Coop just 5 minutes walk ( uphill ) which has everything you need so no need to bring loads of supplies unless you want to . Cons : There were a few niggles from our first stay which had been resolved , but a couple still remained ie: The master bedroom curtain does not block out any light - I woke up at sunrise every morning which was around 04:30 during our stay . A blackout curtain and blind are definitely needed. Secondly the en-suite shower is tiny and its door folds open inwards - my husband struggled to get in it , and it’s impossible to turn on the water without saturating your arm. The cushions for the outside furniture are grubby- we knew this from last year so brought our own throws. The washing machine wasn’t working during our stay which we discovered after removing a sopping wet load from it which then took days to dry. We did report this , it wasn’t resolved during our stay but in fairness we did say it wasn’t the be all and end all and no urgency. The hob in the kitchen could do with instructions to switch it on - we worked it out eventually but it was a good half hour of trial and error. All in all we had a lovely week and with a couple of tweaks it would’ve been perfect.

The property

This charming property, Castle Cove Cottage, is located within a 20 minute walk from Weymouth town centre, Dorset, with views directly over Portland Harbour with direct access to a sandy beach within 100m.

Chesil Beach is also within walking distance.

Castle Cove Cottage is the ideal location for a family of five, with spectacular sea views and easy access to some of Dorset's greatest seaside activities.

When you arrive, you'll be greeted with an off-road parking spot before enjoying the soothing sea breeze.

Make your way inside the delightful dwelling, where a sitting room awaits you with plush seating resting in front of the warm fire and TV; you can even curl up with a kindly provided book.

In the kitchen, you'll find a unique feature in the form of an original postbox, alongside a choice of fantastic appliances that will satisfy any budding chef.

When a delicious meal has been prepared, bring it over to the dining room table, or savour it out on the patio, surrounded by the breathtaking views of the Isle of Portland and the shimmering sea.

As the day comes to an end, make your way up the stairs to find three stylishly decorated bedrooms: a double with its own balcony and en-suite shower room, a twin, and a single offering a truckle bed.

The family bathroom is also on this floor, and it's a beautifully designed area that's perfect for soothing soaks in the tub after a day of activities.

In addition, the cottage has access to a private path that goes down to a beautiful, private beach with a jetty area, ideal for sailing and watersports lovers!

The ancient marvel of Nothe Fort, with its gardens, museum and access to Weymouth Harbour, is close by, as are the wonders of Sandsfoot Castle and Rodwell Trail.

Continue on to Weymouth, where you'll find a variety of lovely beaches, the gorgeous locations of Lodmoor Country Park and Radipole Lake, alongside a variety of entertainment options, including SEA LIFE.

Explore the lovely Isle of Portland, which includes the historic attractions of Portland Castle and Castletown D-Day Museum, as well as attractive walking trails and pretty beaches.

More excursions are available in the Dorset AONB, which includes the locations of Bridport and Dorchester.

At Castle Cove Cottage, you will create memories to look back on in years to come!
