The cottage is consistently praised for its central location, close to shops, restaurants, the beach, and public transport, making it an ideal base for exploring Weymouth.

Guests find the beds comfortable and the property well-maintained, though some suggested additional amenities like fans for the bedrooms and seating in the courtyard.

About this property

Positioned in the heart of the popular seaside resort of Weymouth rests this remarkable whitewashed holiday home, Picardy Cottage. Set across three floors and enjoying close proximity to the glorious golden sands of Weymouth Beach, Picardy Cottage is the perfect base for a family or group of friends looking to explore the delights of the sought-after region of Dorset. Dust off your sandy toes as you step over the threshold and enter into the handy hallway space of your new home-from-home, providing a convenient spot to store your bags and beach-going essentials away from the main living areas. Following a day of adventure, unwind with a steaming cup of tea and a sumptuous seat in front of the television in the sitting room before venturing through to the nearby galley-style kitchen to satisfy your appetite.

Utilise the fantastic range of amenities provided in the well-equipped space to rustle up some tasty treats before gathering together with your loved ones to indulge in the fruits of your labor at the dining table. When day draws to night, climb the stairs to the first floor where you'll find two well-presented bedrooms, a double and a twin, along with a family bathroom, stylishly adorned with Victorian tiling and fit with both a bath and an overhead shower, giving guests the choice between soaking their tired feet or washing away the day with a quick rinse. An additional double and twin bedroom can be found on the second floor, and a further bathroom can be found on the ground floor, ideal for larger groups!

Take advantage of your central location and take the short stroll from your doorstep into the centre of Weymouth where you'll be spoilt for choice with the variety of amenities on offer; indulge in the catch of the day with a view of the clear blue waters at the Rockfish Weymouth, refuel following a day of excursions with a bite of traditional pub grub at The Black Dog, or a spot of afternoon tea at The Good Life Cafe. Come face-to-face with a variety of fascinating sea creatures at the SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth, explore the labyrinth tunnels hidden deep below the Victorian ruins of Nothe Fort, test your luck at the arcades at Alexandra Gardens, or watch the world go by as the boats dock at Weymouth Harbour.

Pack your bucket and spade and head to the golden sands of Weymouth Beach, where you can paddle the shores of the bay or spend lazy days soaking up the sun's rays, or if that's not your thing, embark on a two-footed adventure along the South West Coast Path, where you can discover the hidden delights of Bowleaze Cove and Tyneham Cap. For a unique experience, take a scenic car journey to Abbotsbury Swannery, a former 11th-century monastery that plays home to over 600 mute swans, or lose yourself amongst the vibrant magnolias and camellia blooms at Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens. However you plan to spend your time visiting Dorset, be sure to choose Picardy Cottage as a base that you'll be delighted to return to.

Settled on the southern coastline of Dorset rests the popular resort town of Weymouth. Home to a fantastic selection of amenities and attractions, Weymouth makes an idyllic base for a seaside retreat for all ages. Indulge in a delicious bite to eat with a plethora of eateries to choose from, treat yourself to a spot of retail therapy at the high street or spend lazy days lounging at the beach. Portland Harbour and Dorchester are both within easy reach and well worth a visit whilst you're exploring the delights of the area.

    The door has no deadlock key which would be beneficial, the area seemed very safe and quiet but it would be good to have just for peace of mind. The property itself had everything we needed tea and coffee were provided and washing up items. The towels were lovely big and fluffy. The house was clean throughout. A lamp would be nice in the front room. There were 8 of us and as it is a terrace it was a squeeze sitting down in the front room, but as we had teens they didn't stay long. The dining room fitted us all in fine. We were a little concerned about the parking but this was not an issue at all there is a car park very close by and the long stay is less than 5 minutes away the app to use it is very simple too. The house is very central to everything in Weymouth only a few minutes walk to the beach and all the activities. Its in a great location and being on a non vehicular street is quite quiet (seagulls excluded). All in all a great comfortable stay.

    Close to the station, but down a quiet side street. Comfortable beds with clean bed linen and modern kitchen appliances. I would recommend a stay in the cottage, but I certainly wouldn't recommend booking through Sykes. There is no way at all to contact them to discuss any issues. The only option on the website is a whatsapp number, which is never replied to. This has made me decide not to book with Sykes again.
