Weymouth, home to golden sands and colourful houses

Weymouth is a beautiful seaside town in Dorset and is a wonderful destination for a last minute cottage holiday. With the Isle of Portland connected by a bridge, the two towns combine to give visitors a wide range of options to enjoy of their escape. Known as the ‘jewel’ in the Dorset crown, Weymouth and Portland was famously chosen to host the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic sailing events. Weymouth is also located at the mouth of the River Wey. The Esplanade is composed of an attractive arc of terraces. Much of the architecture was constructed in the Georgian and Regency periods between 1770 and 1855 and commissioned by wealthy businessmen. Weymouth Beach is three miles long and a few minutes walk from the town centre. It was announced as the number one beach in the UK in the TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards for 2017.
