Why Weymouth Holiday Cottages?
Perfect for groups of all ages and with plenty to offer visitors all year-round, there are tonnes of reasons why Weymouth holidays are so popular! Home to a selection of exceptional sandy beaches popular with water sports enthusiasts, here you can easily spend an entire afternoon taking part in some adrenaline-pumping action trying out water sports like surfing or paddleboarding.
Alternatively, those who want to relax and kick back on a sunny afternoon and watch the kids make sandcastles. Coastal walks are a major attraction in Dorset, including the world-famous South West Coast Path, and the subtropical climate makes it a great place to get out and explore.
Weymouth also has a beautiful esplanade that looks out over the sandy beach and provides spectacular views of the coast. Make sure to keep an eye out for the seals and dolphins that occasionally swim into the harbour, too! The shoreline around the town is arguably of the most beautiful in England too, since the beach is located in the heart of the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and wildlife sanctuary that’s well worth visiting during Weymouth holidays.
