Seafarer Reviews

This is a comfortable modern house in a lovely setting and is the perfect location for a family house in Dorset.

What a spectacular view from this property. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks holiday here. Very comfy beds and the car parking space was a bonus. The bus stops were close by. The couple who live next door (who I understand are the owners parents) were lovely and very helpful. The smoke alarms went off and they came in and fitted new batteries even though it was quite late.

The property was excellent, clean and equipped with everything we needed. Excellent location for beach and visiting other places. Would highly recommend.

Excellent location, overlooking the sea and Portland Island.

We enjoyed our stay at Seafarer. Its location, overlooking Smallmouth Bay, and out towards Portland Bill is special, dramatic even at times when the sun is setting, or the storm clouds are gathering! (And they certainly did during our week!) Inside, the house is warm, clean, and comfortable, and we had everything we needed for our stay. We would recommend a walk along the Chesil road to the Chesil beach nature reserve, which also has a good cafe. There is an easily accessible bus service into Weymouth town, and plenty of interest with the harbour, esplanade, sea front and shops. Further afield, Abbotsbury gardens, and "Sculpture by the lakes" are well worth visiting.

Lovely location, very clean and well equipped. Beds very comfortable. Disappointing, however, to find that the heating is externally controlled and you're only allowed heating for 3 hours morning and evening and only to 18 degrees. I can understand it in the Summer to a degree but not in October when there's a storm forecast. No shower after a lie in or leisurely bath before bed as the hot water will have been switched off!

We chose this property mainly for its excellent location despite the high price. However, on arrival there were a number of disappointments. No welcome pack, the ground floor TV was out of action, the king-size bed mattress on the second floor was so noisy we had to use the double bed on the lower floor. We had reason to dispute the TV not working as it is shown on the property photos and we assumed it worked but the owners refused to repair it. We did look at contesting the owners decision but be warned she is based in the Channel Islands making any legal action difficult. Locking of the rear garden exit door on security grounds leading to the garage was annoying. In the end, we believe the property's dated condition does not warrant the high price being charged and would never return

The cottage was okay. The view excellent and close to amenities.

Property tastefully decorated , fabulous location just finishing touches let it down
