“We had very good weather.”

the house had fantastic views over harbour.

the house had fantastic views over harbour. The only drawback was the parking.
Mr Mccormick July 2020

“Fantastic location.”

...excellent amenities & easy to just relax with chairs out by harbour wall with a drink and watch the world go by!! Deb & Gord
Mr Yearwood December 2019

“This is our 4th year of staying at this property.”

The facilities of the property and the location are fabulous. There are a few points that could do with some attention. The toilet roll and towel holders are very loose and could do with fixing, also there is some mould in the top floor shower room and the shower sealant is starting to come away and go mouldy. One of our group mentioned that the mattress in the second floor double bedroom was quite uncomfortable. There are also some areas around the property that could do with touching up with paint. All that being said, I have already booked to stay here again in December 2020.
Miss Ponting November 2019

“The holiday was everything me & my friends envisaged.”

Weymouth is beautiful & the cottage is perfectly placed with great facilities.
Mrs Leaver September 2019

“Lovely cottage very well equipped.”

Only one complaint the mattress in the 1st floor bedroom at the front has the most uncomfortable mattress i have ever slept on ,needs replacing.Would definately put me off booking this cottage again unless i knew it had been replaced which is a shame otherwise a really nice place to stay.
Mrs Johnson August 2019

“Lovely cottage in a good location, however it needs some attention as certain areas are not up to standard.”

Things such as loo roll holders falling off of the walls, these all need to be refitted. We could not get the DVD player to work and could not find any instructions for it. Showers need to have the sealant replaced as there was a lot of black mould. These small things let the cottage down. One major problem is the bed on the first floor. The mattress is worn out and very uncomfortable. The same with the seating in the living room, these are worn out too and therefore quite uncomfortable. There are some very good points to this Cottage. It is equipped with just about everything you could need. The cleanliness inside was fine, but outside was filthy. The entrance outside the front door hasn’t seen a clean in a longtime. Very dirty and scruffy it makes a poor first impression. The balcony on the top floor was also extremely dirty outside and in desperate need of a clean. I don’t think we would stay there again unless the bed was changed, a week of poor sleeping is not what you expect on holiday. This a cottage that with a bit of attention could be wonderful. It was a delight to be able to watch the traffic of boats, an ever changing vista.
Mrs Myall August 2019

“The only let down was the WiFI the signal is not great which would of been handy on a rainy day.”
Ms Chan June 2019

“Beautiful house and views, great location, furnished and decorated to a very high standard, spacious bedrooms and lots of storage space.”

Disappointed with the cleanliness when we arrived, especially the kitchen worktop, dining chairs and floors throughout were very dirty. Attention needed with the washing machine, which has extensive mould in the door seal and therefore not useable. All in all a pleasant stay.
Mr Holtom June 2019

“Having stayed in cove house a few times.”

We now feel the house needs some TLC both internal and external cleaning and decorating. It definatly needs a new mattress in the master bedroom as it is so flat you are lying on the frame of the bed.we have seen other comments to this effect it is very uncomfortable.Otherwise a fantastic place to spend a holiday on the harbour.
Mrs Owen June 2019

“Another lovely stay at Cove House but cleanliness still not up to expected standard - no hoovering has been done again under sofas in lounge or sideboard in kitchen in particular.”

Toilet rolls not replaced on the Saturday cleaning day during the middle of our holiday and black mould present on wall and window frame in top floor en-suite. Dishwasher door cover still damaged for the third year running - really needs replacing as looks shabby. A lovely property in a great location, but needs some TLC and decorating/cleaning/general maintenance to bring it up to spec, especially with the ever increasing prices for 2018/2019!
Mrs Jeffery May 2019

“The cottage was stunning in every way.”

Let down somewhat by some aspects of housekeeping/cleaning. It was spotless everywhere except the kitchen floor was filthy. I always walk round barefoot at home and my feet were black each day. The filter in the dishwasher was filthy. The glass in the beautiful balcony on the second floor was covered with seagull poo as well as the glass door there, also loads of small children’s sticky fingers. The tiles on the balcony were covered in lichen from the roof. No cleaning had been done there for a while. We understand seagulls and their filth because we have an apartment that we let on the harbour front in Penzance. The balcony needs thoroughly cleaning at every changeover. Having said that we would definitely come again because the whole place is unbelievably wonderful.
Dr Waters May 2019

“Wonderful location and property but too many gadgits that didn't work or broken even after the matainace man had been to fix them the gas fires we're inoperable as the remote controls had been removed because of previous misuse.”
Mrs Richards April 2019

“Fantastic position in Weymouth great house with all the mod cons, one thing to note the mattresses are getting a little tired especially in the twin room but other than that our second stay at cove house and I’m sure we’ll be back sometime next year.”
Mrs Booth March 2019

“Cove House is in a prime location on Brewers Quay.”

It has been furnished to a very high standard with everything you could possibly need for a lovely holiday even down.to the smallest detail. The owner has obviously thought carefully about the customers needs and comfort which is why we love to return to this property year after year. As a couple we take my parents to Weymouth every year as it's their favourite place to go and the layout of Cove House is ideal for us as there are two sitting rooms which means both couples can have their own space :-) and enjoy a family holiday at the same time.
Mrs Ralph February 2019

“Thick dust under settees.”

Filthy dishwasher. Not really suitable for some toddlers due to tiled stairs & no stairgate. Close to lovely walks, shops & plenty of places to eat out.
Mrs Richards

“Fantastic house, fantastic location.”

We have stopped in quite a few dream cottages in weymouth and I must say cove house has been the best. All in all a great property which i have already booked for next year. Stayed April 2018
Mrs Rabbetts

“Great house, very tastefully decorated and fitted to a high standard throughout, everything had been thought of for a comfortable stay.”

This is without doubt one of the best places we have stayed in (we normally have a cottage holiday every year) ideally situated, everything you needed within walking distance holidaying with a lady of 94 this was important for us, in fact we were so impressed we have made a provisional booking for next year ( we actually fell in love with the house and what Weymouth has to offer) Stayed September 2017
Mr Chris Roe

“The house itself was lovely and that location great.”

Would stay there again for certain - stayed August 2017
Mr & Mrs Hamner

“This cottage can't be outdone for comfort and location.”

It is a lovely, spotlessly clean property, located on the harbour front. Beautiful views and surrounded by pubs and restaurants. A 5 star rating on any scale! Stayed June 2017

About the location

BREWERS QUAY HARBOUR

Dorchester 8.7 miles; West Lulworth 15.8 miles

Brewers Quay is the old Victorian brewery situated at the heart of the harbour, in Weymouth, Dorset. Much of the grade II listed complex and surrounding brewery buildings date from the late 1800 early 1900’s and many have stones inlaid commemorating their construction year. This area is now a popular destination with many restaurants, café and bars, creating a vibrant culture, where you can relax with a drink and watch the world go by. Tucked away down the harbourside streets, you will find original Tudor harbour buildings, estimated to have been built in 1600 and well worth a visit, with a very interesting history to share. You will also find the Weymouth Museum, with some incredible exhibitions, and the harbour is also home to the lifting bridge, where you can watch the luxury yachts head out to sea, and then walk over the bridge to the town's winding streets of boutique shops and the seafront esplanade and beach. There is more to this seaside town than meets the eye; Brewers Quay is a much-loved holiday destination in Weymouth!
