Flat One The Beaches

Nicola Rating, 5 stars1 month ago
Had a fabulous 4 nights staying here and loved it. Easy check in and instructions, great location on sea front and harbour/shops just a few minutes walk as was M&S/Tesco for food shops. Fair few steps to the apartment but no trouble for us. Surprising & lovely courtyard with seating outside apartment door. Apartment really spacious, modern bathroom & really liked the open plan lounge / kitchen. TV had Netflix which was bonus and large fridge freezer. So comfortable for a few days. No issue with noise as bedroom on the back of the building. Definitely stay again as loved the location & homely feel. Thank you !

Esplanade: Beach front, Regency flat with parking

HazeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Would definitely recommend this apartment for those wanting a stay in Weymouth. It’s right on the esplanade on the seafront, so literally ideal for the beach & town. There were games & for those going at a warmer time of year, items to use for the beach, so it’s really thoughtfully kitted out. Gerwins responsiveness regarding the booking & a query were also excellent. Would definitely stay again if having a trip to Weymouth. A really lovely, cute & cosy apartment.

Sebastian’s flat is in a fantastic spot in Swanage, so easy to pop out the door and into a restaurant, cafe or the sea! A beautiful flat with a complete kitchen, very comfortable bed and a lovely atmosphere. Thank you for having us Sebastian!

By The Quay

SheilaRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Very nice flat, well equipped, great welcome. We didn't find the duvet for the sofa bed at first. Slightly clearer instructions might help with this. The Airbnb imposed times meant for two nights we only had one full day and a few hours. They should reconsider times. Otherwise everything was excellent.

Jurassic View, Pier Terrace

JohnRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
The accommodation was exactly as described and the cleanliness of the flat was pristine. The flat was very cosy and had everything that was needed to help us enjoy our stay. Special mention that the shower was fab and the views of the harbour were amazing. A lovely property to enjoy a few days away - very relaxing. Some welcome gifts were waiting for us on arrival, some wine, locally made biscuits and some milk for a cuppa. A lot of thought from Stephen and April has gone in to ensuring guests have everything they need - thank you both very much.

Historic Mill on the River Piddle

AmandaRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Travelling as a family of four and one dog. We loved our stay at North Mill. Great location with lots to pubs and restaurants a short walk into Wareham old town. Sally was super friendly and welcoming. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place for a stay on Wareham and to enjoy the beautiful Dorset coast.

Beautiful beachside home, amazing sea view & walks

AmandaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The Ark offered unrestricted views of the coastline and it was literally a one minute walk to the beach. Having made the booking in the February it was a really cold weekend. There was a table outside of the property and it would be absolutely lovely just eat and drink outside in the warmer weather. The property was so clean and was modern inside. There was absolutely no issue in keeping warm during the cold weather, the property retained the heat perfectly. We actually bumped into Peter outside because we arrived a little earlier, he was super friendly and helpful. Initially we thought we had a problem with the tv and Frances was quick at responding to the messages and more than willing to help. Great value for money. Location is lovely and my dog had the best time.

Redcliffe Farm House on the river bend

MichaelRating, 5 stars5 months ago
An excellent airbnb experience! Bev’s house was exactly what we were looking for, for a family birthday getaway. Once we’d pinpointed the address it was easy to find with Google Maps and Bev’s instructions. Entry was easy with the key in a lockbox, and the place was lovely and clean. It’s very well sized and slept 6 of us very comfortably. The kitchen was very well stocked for an Airbnb and left us impressed! Bathrooms were also well stocked and there were complementary slippers in all of the bedrooms to make us feel at home and relaxed. The house is a short walk from the centre of Wareham, and it’s a nice walk along the river. Pricing was in line with what we’ve paid to stay at other similarly sized properties, so we were happy with that. Overall it was a brilliant stay, and Bev was responsive and very accommodating with check in & out times. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again!

BEACH HOUSE: sleeps 14 right on Sea / Beach / Sand

EmmaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We were a group of 12, and every one of us agreed this is the best holiday house we've ever stayed in. We loved the location, right by the beach and a short walk into town, but at the end of a cul-de-sac, so quiet and safe. We loved all the many books and musical instruments in the house - we felt very at home! We loved the beautiful sea views from 3 bedrooms, and the comfy beds, and the well-equipped kitchen. Our children loved the wide range of toys and the games console. The host made us feel very welcome. We felt it was very good value for money, and we would really like to come back and stay here again.

BurdenRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
Lovely little place in an ideal location. Beautiful decoration & appliances. Gorgeous little terrace/decking. Excellent communication with host. Nice & clean. Very comfortable bed. Sofa would benefit from a throw or cover as it looks a bit tired, but is also v comfy.

Nothe House - Exclusive home, Weymouth Harbour

SueRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The house is a comfy, beautifully furnished and decorated family home. As opposed to a house put together for Airbnb. Everything was just how we would have wanted it. We spent a very happy Christmas there with our family and everyone (9 of us at one point) had enough space, with a cozy lounge with fireplace and the quieter viewing lounge.The beds were comfy, the kitchen was amply equipped, we went for coastal walks - perfect.

High-spec apartment, river views

MurielRating, 5 stars1 week ago
What a wonderful place! It was idyllic—so close to the river, and the pictures don’t do it justice. We had an amazing weekend. The house is gorgeous and has everything you need. Sean is an amazing host who goes above and beyond to help. We will definitely be back!

Panoramic Harbour views in historic apartment

JackieRating, 5 stars4 months ago
A perfect location for all the amenities of Poole and Poole Harbour. The view of the harbour was spectacular and a good amount of our was spent sitting on the window seat admiring the view and watching people go by their day. The apartment is very well equipped with pretty much everything you need and we very much appreciated the extra touches such as fresh flowers on the windowsill, milk, OJ and croissants. I’ll definitely visit again when I visit Poole next!

What a fabulous place to stay in West Bay. The location was amazing with fabulous views over the harbour. Pubs, restaurants and cafes a stone’s throw away and we were lucky enough to benefit from the free parking everyday. The flat itself was well equipped with quality items, very clean & bright and Karen was quick in responding to our questions. Highly recommended all round. Thank you for our welcome pack !

A harbour view Jurassic Coast gem.

BrendaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This was our second visit to Carolyn's apartment in West Bay. We also visited out of season last time - West Bay has a lovely out of summer season vibe! There were plenty of shops and restaurants still open. We did have a dramatic storm for one day, but mostly the weather was dry, sunny and bracing! The apartment is in a great location, and is beautifully maintained - very clean and welcoming. Carolyn is a wonderful host - excellent communication and very useful information from entry details to local amenities.
