This traditional seaside town has a sandy beach backed by shops, cafés and restaurants. The historic harbour is also well worth a visit, where you can take a boat trip or try your hand at fishing. The area is also rich in history, being home to the Victorian Nothe Fort and ancient ruins of the cliffside Sandsfoot castle. Why not take a trip to Portland, with its traditional lighthouse and stunning 16th century castle? Or explore the rugged pebble swathes of Chesil beach.

Nicely hidden away in Upwey, but with car access to or through Weymouth or Dorchester quite easy. Everything we needed (even in the October rain) was there, and in the bushes just outside there were several friendly garden birds. Thank you!

We love this Cabin. For someone in a wheelchair it works very well as it's all flat, large rooms and good shower area, but be careful as it is slippery flooring in that area! Great location for Weymouth and getting around.

This cabin is really lovely, both clean and beautifully presented. We have stayed here on a number of occasions as it is well placed for visiting Weymouth and other places of interest. As a wheelchair user the rooms are spacious and the bathroom has a lovely walk in shower. I take my own shower stool with me.

Great value for money, lovely little cottage that comfortably housed the two of us and my toddler. 2nd time staying there. Very well equipped kitchen and good sized bathroom. Bed comfy and the underfloor heating made the cottage super cozy. Very close to Weymouth (about a 10-15min drive to the beach), and the supermarkets.

A lovely quiet location but close to so many attractions. We took the bus into Weymouth which saved a parking fee and they ran quite frequently. We loved the layout of the cabin and felt at home there straight away. We had a lovely tea at the Wishing Well tea rooms - walked there easily, and also spent a wonderful afternoon at the Sculptures by TheRead more Lake, a short drive away. If we coming back to this area we would definitely stay in the Cabin again. Hide

The Cabin is beautiful and in a lovely, quiet area but near enough to enjoy Weymouth at only 3 miles away. As a wheelchair user it works really well, being step-free with nice size rooms to turn in.
