Weymouth is a great place to visit any time of the year because of the huge range of activities and attractions available. The beautiful, golden sand beaches are home to first-rate watersports infrastructure, while frequent fishing expeditions depart from the harbor's charming, teeming atmosphere. Portland Harbour and the mountainous "Isle" of Portland are only a short drive away, connected to Weymouth by the breathtaking Chesil Beach. Just 7 miles away is Dorchester, the inspiration for Thomas Hardy's "Casterbridge," or you may take a drive along the coast and stop by Abbotsbury Swannery and Subtropical Gardens. To see the beautiful Dorset Heritage Coastline, you might just just go to West Bay.

If I had to nitpick - I could have done with a small set of scales to weigh pasta and rice. On the whole, I was very impressed.

We had a great stay I would have given it 5 stars but the entrance was very gloomy with a fusty smell we could not fault the accommodation it had everything you could think of and was very clean

Location could not have been better and the parking is such a plus point. We would not hesitate to recommend Brewers retreat and hope to return ourselves
