Kiama
Description
Well-positioned in the bustling resort of Weymouth, with views across the Dorset coastline is Kiama, a three-storey home.
Enjoying a convenient location near a host of shops, eateries, the beach, and a range of attractions, whilst adorning elevated sea views, overlooking Sandsfoot Castle and Garden, Kiama offers the ideal base for an escape to Dorset AONB.
Park up and enter Kiama, where you'll firstly find access to the garage, utility with washing machine, and a handy cloakroom.
Ascend the stairs to the first floor and be welcomed into the lovely living/dining room, complete with plush seating, a wall-mounted TV, and a balcony, where you can relax and watch the sun set over the shoreline.
Continue through to the well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can rustle up delicious meals with the helping hand of a gas hob, electric oven, and dishwasher for convenience.
Catch some rest in either of the two bedrooms, located on the second floor, including a double with TV, and a twin, both serviced by a bathroom.
Awaken to a morning coffee upon the rear patio, before following the Rodwell trail woodland path, travelling from Weymouth to Portland.
On your doorstep you'll also locate the golden sands of Castle Cove, where you can also stroll around Sandsfoot Gardens, before exploring the West Dorset Heritage Coast, reaching Chesil Beach, and access to The Rodwell Trail is just a few minutes away, which provides traffic free walk and bicycle access to Weymouth.
Within the town itself reach a wealth of attractions, including Sandworld, SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth, Weymouth Beach, Weymouth Harbour, and RSPB Lodmoor, offering a mix for all types of visits.
Before reaching Dorchester, practise your swing at the Came Down Golf Club, or explore Maiden Castle, a popular hiking area, before touring Dorset Museum, or visiting Kingston Maurward Animal Park and Gardens.
Experience all of this at Kiama.

What guests are saying
Kiama was lovely, extremely clean and very well equipped.
The view from the lounge and main bedroom was brilliant. A couple of minor things which we found was no blind in the bathroom and kitchen. Also it would be nice to have a new can opener, I really struggled with the one available. The only downside was the parking which was only just wide enough to back your car under the arch in front of the garage. Being in our early 70s we found the two flights of stairs a little hard especially when unloading our bags. The property isn't suitable for the elderly or disabled. It was really good having the Rodwell Trail running at the back of the property and even better you can join this in a couple of minutes. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.
We visit every year and we love Kiama!
Between us and my parents we’ve stayed at a few holiday houses along Castle Road and Kiama is definitely our favourite. Beautiful view, very clean, everything we need in a perfect location. We love the park and cafe opposite. Can’t wait to return next year!
Facilities would have been given the maximum score, but the shower was weak and the temperature was variable, sometimes running cold mid-shower.
Aside from that, the property is well-equipped and comfortable. Parking was not an issue for us, but the listing should make it very clear that the space is limited. A large, or estate car would overhang the pavement, and struggle to fit in the width available. The popularity of the location means that there is very limited roadside parking during the day. Kiama is situated in a super location with views over Sandsfoot Castle and the sea beyond, close to 2 beaches, and with a good café on site. The downside of this is that on occasion there can be noise into the late evening. Behind the property, the Rodwell Trail provides a mostly flat and tree-lined walking and cycle route into Weymouth (40 mins). It also gives access to a local pub, good chip shop and Co-op within a 10-15 minute walk. In summary, this is a very well-equipped property, in a super location, and we would happily have given it 5 stars if it were not for the shower.
