Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests have raised concerns about cleanliness, including the presence of dog hair and a less than thorough cleaning service. However, several reviews mention the property being clean and tidy, indicating a generally satisfactory level of cleanliness.
The location is consistently highlighted as brilliant, with easy access to beaches, central Weymouth, and quiet surroundings. Its proximity to local attractions and amenities contributes to a high score.
The cottage is described as comfortable and cosy, with a welcoming atmosphere. Some minor issues are mentioned, such as a rip in the settee and nails in the floor, but overall, guests find the property comfortable.
The property is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, but there are repeated mentions of a noisy washer/dryer and some minor maintenance issues. Despite this, guests are pleased with the facilities provided.

About this property
Located near Brewers Quay, Weymouth, Rose Cottage is a tastefully presented Victorian terraced holiday home.
With accommodation spread over three floors this deceptively spacious three bedroom red brick terraced cottage, is the perfect base for exploring Weymouth and beyond. At the rear of the property there is also an enclosed decked patio area meaning you can sit outside and relax while enjoying the warm summer air. This really is a gem of a cottage.
The beautiful Nothe Gardens with views across Weymouth bay and over to the Isle of Portland and Nothe Fort are only a few minutes from the cottage. The coastal walks around the gardens are perfect for an afternoon stroll or family picnic.
Take a walk along the harbourside, via the Old Stone Pier, stopping for a bite to eat in one of the numerous restaurants, pubs or cafes. Just a short walk across the town-bridge you will find yourself in the town center where you can explore the usual high street shops or local quirky shops. On the edge of town you will find the aware-winning sandy beach, a treat not to be missed whatever the weather.
If you wish to discover more of Dorset why not take a drive along the coast road to West Bexingham, the market town of Bridport or visit some of the many attractions across Dorset such as Monkey World or Bovington Tank museum.
The ever popular resort of Weymouth makes an outstanding year-round holiday destination, with a wide variety of attractions on offer, appealing to all tastes and ages. The glorious golden sandy beach with its shallow waters provide excellent facilities for all kinds of watersports, whilst from the picturesque, bustling harbour you can take regular fishing trips. A short drive takes you to Portland Harbour, and the rugged “Isle” of Portland, linked to Weymouth by the dramatic Chesil Beach. Visit Dorchester, Thomas Hardy’s “Casterbridge”, only 7 miles away, or take a journey along the scenic coastal road and call in at Abbotsbury Swannery and Subtropical Gardens. Alternatively, just head down to West Bay - the views of the stunning Dorset Heritage Coastline are not to be missed!

We did leave a small list of items which may need attention, but they are all general things which happen in everyone's home at some stage - lightbulbs needing changing etc. so nothing to complain about or that affected our stay. The only thing which did affect us was noise from the Neighbours due to being a terraced property. We could hear their T.V loudly until the early hours of the morning. We totally appreciate that this again is unavoidable to a certain extent and difficult to resolve. Once again - this wasn't to the point where it ruined our stay. All in all we were happy with the rental and would use it again.

It was lovely having space for the four of us to spread out, with people being able to watch TV in the dining room and lounge as well as my son gaming in his room upstairs after a long day walking. It was well decorated and well cleaned. The welcome pack mentioned a parking permit which we couldn't find. The bathroom lock was a little tricky and needs a little TLC. Thank you for such a lovely stay. It was a great base.
