The Chocolate Box

About this property

Nestled on the outskirts of the popular seaside resort of Weymouth in Dorset, is this lovely three-storey house, The Chocolate Box. Enjoying a prime location just moments away from a good selection of beautiful beaches and a wealth of attractions, The Chocolate Box is a superb dog-friendly dwelling for a group or family of six, plus their two canine companions. Park-up on the driveway with space for two cars, before stepping into your new home from home. Look forward to cooking up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen, with handy dishwasher, ready to savour a delicious meal at the dining table for six in front of the woodburning stove, or alfresco out in your private rear garden over a bottle of wine. After dinner, retire to the sitting room where you can snuggle up and watch your favourite film on the Smart TV, as your pooch takes up their favourite spot in front of the woodburning stove. Completing the ground floor is a handy cloakroom for your convenience. Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can wash away the day in the beautiful bathroom with a soak in the bath or a hot shower. On this floor, you will also discover two well-appointed double bedrooms with Smart TVs, one of which also has its own shower room. Continue up to the second-floor, where you will find a spacious twin with Smart TV and charming views out towards the sea. Explore your local surroundings, where you will find the remarkable Sandsfoot Castle nearby, with vibrant gardens, as well as the beautiful sands of Castle Cove Beach where you can bathe and paddle the shores, and the 2.1-mile Rodwell Trail for leisurely strolls with your four-legged friend. On your way into the town centre, be sure to visit the fascinating Nothe Fort with its labyrinth style tunnels, delightful gardens and stunning sea views. Weymouth offers plenty of attractions including the Pleasure Pier, fresh seafood at Crustacean and Rockfish, watersports opportunities at Weymouth Beach, a sea life centre and the popular RSPB sites of Radipole Lake and Lodmoor, sure to entice any wildlife enthusiasts. Make the drive over to Dorchester, where you can enjoy the attractions of The Keep Military Museum, Dorset Museum, Dorset Teddy Bear Museum, and the National Trust site of Max Gate, former home of the great literary, Thomas Hardy. Further afield, you will find Bridport, where you can enjoy the delights of the Vintage Market, Bridport Museum, the Bridport & West Dorset Golf Club. From Bridport you can easily embark on a scenic stroll along the famous Jurassic Coast for some of the best sights and scenery in the area. Your Dorset adventure awaits at The Chocolate Box.

Weymouth is an excellent year-round vacation spot, with a wide range of attractions that appeal to visitors of all ages and inclinations.

All kinds of activities can be enjoyed on the golden sand beaches, while regular fishing trips can be taken from the lovely, lively harbour.

Weymouth and Portland are connected by the Chesil Beach in a short trip. It is only 7 miles away from Dorchester, the setting for Thomas Hardy's "Casterbridge," so why not take a picturesque coastal route and stop at Abbotsbury Swannery and Subtropical Gardens?

Alternatively, head to West Bay, where you'll be able to take in the spectacular vistas of the Dorset Heritage Coastline.
