“This holiday home is in the lovely village of Osmington and very near the Smugglers Inn.”

It has amazing views of The South West Coastal Path. The holiday home is well equipped including a 'pool table' which was a bonus as were a mixed age group and the young adults spent plenty of time playing 'pool'. I loved this holiday home, great for all ages and four legged family members and we would defo come back again.

“The house is very well placed for local walks and amazing views.”

Unfortunately it is very old however, it smells dusty and damp, the furniture is extremely old, the wardrobes and drawers are not usable, they smell so musty and dated.. The house is for 7, although it sleeps 7 it does not sit 7 comfortably. In the living room there is only really seating for 5/6 if you squish up... There is very little supplied, so if you are travelling from far and just there for a week you are expected to buy everything... salt, pepper, all condiments, bin bags.. basically all house hold supplies.... I was disappointed. The house is overpriced for the quality and comfort. Sorry to say I would not recommend. Marti the housekeeper was very friendly however and did her best to improve our stay.

“We have just spent two weeks in the perfect location in Osmington.”

Waterson Cottage was more than we could have imagined. The cottage was perfect for our family with three large bedrooms, a spacious lounge, two bathrooms and and plenty to do. Our family enjoyed the use of the pool/snooker table and having the opportunity to play the games or read the books provided.The kitchen was well equipped for all our needs.The location is lovely, we spent time on the decking overlooking the hills surrounding it looking at the deer and badgers. It was wonderful to see birds of prey circling overhead too.The children enjoyed playing in the garden, exploring, seeing all the different fruit trees.We are looking forward to returning to Waterson again as it was the best holiday we have had in all the 16 years we have been coming to Weymouth. Scott and Emma. Stayed August 2016

About the location

OSMINGTON

Osmington village, sits on the Jurassic coastline of Dorset, just 6 miles from Weymouth with it’s infamous beach and historic harbour and just 11 miles from Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. Home to the famous Chalk hillside carving of George III on horseback, cut into the hillside to commemorate the Royal visits to Weymouth, this landmark can be seen from miles away. It is also the place that John Constable spent his honeymoon in 1816 and where he completed his painting of Weymouth Bay that now hangs in the National Gallery. The South West Coastal path runs through Osmington Mills, a tiny hamlet on the edge of Osmington. Here many walkers start their coast path walks at the Smugglers inn, where reputedly there are historic connections to smuggling. Be sure to visit to find out all the stories. A short drive will see you reach a local convenience store at Preston. Weymouth offers a larger variety of shopping, eating and entertainment choices.
