Reviews
We stayed here for 6 days whilst we were racing at WPNSA. Found it easy to get to and from, comfortable and a great location to walk 5 minutes into the centre of Weymouth.
Lovely 2 bedroomed cottage. Within walking distance of pubs, shops, beach, and harbour. Ideal for walking a dog as very close to a park. The property is quite small downstairs but was ideal for us as a couple and would be ok for a small family. Good base for exploring the area.
Great place to stay. Clean and tidy with all facilities we needed. Close to harbour and walking distance to town/beach. Great spot!
An excellent base from which to explore Weymouth; perfect for a family of four, plenty of space, well-equipped, extremely comfy beds - it has everything you need.
Cosy, warm, had everything we needed (except a bottle opener. Spotless furniture & linen, looked like the photos.
Very well equipped, thoughtfully decorated and spotlessly clean. Situated in very nice area, in walking distance to pretty much everywhere in Weymouth. Garden has a practical design for low maintenance but still attractive with quality garden furniture and cushions. Enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you.
Capstan cottage has everything you could need. It's comfortable, very clean and has a lovely little garden to relax in. It is in a great location close to the harbour and beautiful Nothe Gardens. Amy is on hand to help if you need any help. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the cottage.
We had a great time staying at Capstan Cottage in Weymouth. We were 2 adults, a 5 year old and a dog and all fitted in comfortably. The property was lovely and clean and came with absolutely everything and a few little extras. The allocated parking spot was great as we were able to stay local without additional parking charges or easily jump in the car for a day trip. The house is in a great location and within a few minutes walk of the park, harbour and plenty of places to eat and drink. The beach and main shops are only about 10 minutes walk. We had a brilliant time. We loved Dorset and loved our accommodation.
Fantastic location. Brilliantly equipped, kitchen best ever, all new and very high quality; lots of John Lewis goods. Wifi didn't fail us and beds were super comfy. We will stay again soon we hope
We had an amazing week at Weymouth. The house was great and we loved the location and proximity to local shops, restaurants, pubs and of course the beach and harbour.
We had a lovely stay at Capstan Cottage. Added bonus of a fab little garden with outdoor table and chairs which was not pictured. Great location just minutes from the harbour.
Had a lovely stay with family in Weymouth. House was clean and enough room for a family of four and a dog! Great location for harbour, costal path and town. Easy drive to Chesil beach and other sights.
We had a great stay, all was as described. The house is really close to local amenities
Fantastic location, a stone's throw away from the harbour
but in a quiet residential area with lots of history. The house was
immaculately clean and well equipped. The bed was super comfy.
Great communication from Amy, including local dog friendly
restaurants and activities. Nothe Gardens very handy for dog walks
and loos. The fort was brilliant - could spend a day there with a
picnic. The Nothe Tavern great for an early evening drink
overlooking the harbour.
