    “Tranquil Tides is actually a small ground floor flat in a dilapidated terraced house in a very run-down area of Weymouth.”

    No wonder you don’t put pictures of the outside on the web. Inside, it had the slightly damp, fusty smell I remember from student flats. All the fixtures and fittings feel like they have been done on the super cheap. For example the mattress was so awful it gave both of us backache and the TV isn’t actually connected to an aerial, making just catching the news headlines hard work. As for tranquil. Every night we were treated to drunks shouting and swearing on the pavement inches from the ...

    No wonder you don’t put pictures of the outside on the web. Inside, it had the slightly damp, fusty smell I remember from student flats. All the fixtures and fittings feel like they have been done on the super cheap. For example the mattress was so awful it gave both of us backache and the TV isn’t actually connected to an aerial, making just catching the news headlines hard work. As for tranquil. Every night we were treated to drunks shouting and swearing on the pavement inches from the lounge window. We also got lots of noise from surrounding flats and people going up and down the stairs to the flat above. We hated it so much we went home early for some creature comforts and a decent night’s sleep. P.S. The nearest parking is very expensive and the more affordable parking is a good walk away (again, not quite as advertised)

    We are sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay at our property, or in Weymouth in general, it would seem. Although we very much welcome reviews which include constructive criticism on which we can act, your review was, we feel, disappointingly unfair and unjust, as is borne out by other reviewers below who say they have very much enjoyed their stays. The standard of our property is neither “dilapidated” nor “super cheap”, which is why Dream Cottages have rated it with 4-ticks, indicating that it meets the high standards they quite rightly expect.

The property

Tranquil Tides, a centrally-positioned, ground-floor apartment rests in the heart of Weymouth, Dorset.

The ideal, romantic getaway for couples, Tranquil Tides rests a stone’s throw from the town’s coast, amenities and attractions, making it a wonderful base for a seaside break.

Step inside the apartment and you will find a well-appointed kitchen/diner, perfect for getting creative with your culinary skills, where you can prepare a meal for two, ready to be enjoyed around the dining table.

The sitting room is the place to snuggle up on the sofa with a glass of wine and watch your favourite films, or on warmer evenings, take advantage of the enclosed courtyard, designed for alfresco mealtimes and relaxation under the stars.

A stylish double bedroom is on offer, where you can catch your rest, along with a sleek shower room, where you can prepare for your coming days.

Whether it's a day at the beach, a bite to eat at one of the many waterside restaurants, or a stroll along the bustling promenade, Weymouth has it all.

Spend the morning birdwatching from RSPB Radipole Lake, followed by a tour of Weymouth Museum, ending with a hike up to Nothe Fort, for elevated, coastal views.

If you're looking for a little more culture and history, take a trip to Dorchester where you can explore The Keep Military Museum, or the Dorset Museum, whilst Copper Street Brewery is nearby, where you can sample some local produce, followed by a meal out at the Brewhouse & Kitchen – Dorchester.

A short journey to Bridport will introduce you to a town full of charming boutiques, cafes, and galleries, as well as the nearby Hive beach where you can take a dip or explore the Jurassic Coast.
