Very nice stay
We stayed here between Christmas and new year for 2 nights, nice simple hotel offering bed and breakfast, great location with the beach across the road and about 10 minutes walk along the "prom" to the town, The Host Peter is a helpful chatty chap, the full English breakfast excellent with quality products being used. Parking may not suit everyone as its off site and maybe a 10 minutes walk towards the town which for us worked out just fine, Peter supplied a parking pass so there was no charge at all and in Weymouth that's a huge bonus. Overall a great stay would happily stay again.

LOVELY guest house. Ole and Peter are so lovely, and the guest house - despite being "at the end of the row" - is still so close to town. The room was really clean, really comfy, really well provided for with tea, coffee etc, and O&P couldn't have been more help. The breakfast was AMAZING (albeit a bit much for my tummy so on the second day they did a slightly smaller one for me - absolutely perfect!) - sausage, egg, bacon, hash browns, beans, tomato, mushrooms, toast, tea/coffee, orange juice and help yourself to cereal. POINT TO NOTE - Ole and Peter only took over in 2019 and did a lot of renovation, so any reviews before then will have been under previous management. Only other point to note is that two of the rooms - 5 and 6 - share a bathroom and toilet. The others are ensuite, so if you want ensuite book early.

Pete was very helpful. Particularly with arranging virtual parking permit as Expedia had not passed information on to Oliver's that parking was required and chosen as option when making my booking. Also Pete was very good at providing gluten free breakfast option at short notice. Our room number 4 was lovely and comfortable with side window sea view. Also had good wardrobe and drawer space. It was nice to have a separate seating area too to watch TV.

The breakfast was great (love crispy Hashbrowns). easy acces to beaches and not too bad to walk to harbour. Parking was good with permit (ask first). No negative points. Next time in Weymouth we will give them a call first.

Very cold despite the additional heater provided. Would have been nice if they had put it on for me before arriving. Shower room had no heating at all. Came on business and found out I needed to pay a cash deposit for the parking permit when I arrived which I was unable to do due to work commitments. Had a note through the door on the last night reminding me to return the parking permit. Feel I was also followed to my car when I went to pack it (and so I could return said parking permit) as though they thought I would drive away with it.

We had a 2 day break over the August bank holiday. Had an excellent stay even though there was renovation work being carried out, which the owners made us aware off. The room was clean and tidy and the bed was comfortable. Within easy walking distance of the beach and the town centre. Peter and Ole were very welcoming and helpful. They cook a great full English breakfast and there was lots of it. Would not hesitate to book again and recommend to family and friends.

An enjoyable trip down south (from Manchester).
Very comfortable single en suite room in good location. Good breakfast and friendly welcome from the owners. A system of permit parking is used - although unable to park directly outside the b&b managed to find a space quickly a short walk away.

Lovely hosts, very welcoming and friendly. Great breakfast in the morning. Short walk to town centre and station/beach. Lovely restaurant Enzos is a short wander, great Italian food. Comfortable bed and tea/coffee in room. Quiet location not much noise from outside. Only thing is would have liked to have some bigger towels in the bathroom.
