Guests say
Rose Cottage in Weymouth is praised for its excellent location, comfortable furnishings, and well-equipped kitchen. Guests appreciate its proximity to beaches, central Weymouth, and local attractions. While some guests have raised concerns about cleanliness and maintenance issues, the overall sentiment is positive, with many expressing a desire to revisit.
Guests have mentioned concerns with cleaning standards, including the presence of dog hair and a general need for a more thorough clean. However, several reviews describe the cottage as clean and tidy, leading to a slightly above average score.
The location is consistently highlighted as excellent, with its close proximity to beaches, the town centre, and quiet surroundings. It is considered a standout feature of Rose Cottage.
The cottage is generally found to be comfortable and cosy, with good sleeping arrangements. Some minor issues such as a rip in the settee and nails in the floor have been noted, slightly lowering the score.
The kitchen is well-equipped, but some appliances like the washing machine have been reported as noisy and in need of repair. The lack of a second toilet for a property sleeping five has been mentioned as a drawback.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.
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.
