Picardy Cottage, Weymouth

Dorset. Sleeps up to 8

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.
