Fisherman's Rest

About this property

Situated in the centre of Wyke Regis, a shoreline village in Dorset, is this fabulous three-bedroom holiday home, Fisherman's Rest. Just a short stone's throw away from local shops, restaurants, attractions, and beaches, whilst contemporarily renovated throughout, Fisherman's Rest is the perfect base for a family, looking to explore Weymouth; six guests are welcome, along with one well-behaved dog. Parking up on the private driveway, enter the spacious sitting room, stylishly finished with a large corner sofa, wall-mounted TV, and plush bean bags, displaying sea glimpses of the nearby shore. Venturing into the open-plan kitchen/diner, be wowed by its opulent finish, boasting a centre island with breakfast bar, bi-fold doors, state-of-the-art appliances, and a contemporary dining table; you'll most definitely use this as your social hub, to cook, dine and relax, while next door, you'll find a utility and cloakroom to ease your stay. Stepping through the bifold doors, expand your living space by relaxing upon the patio, offering a secluded and enclosed outdoor space for the whole family to enjoy; alfresco dining will be perfect throughout the summer months. Once you're ready for some rest, be welcomed by three bedrooms, all bright and airy, including two super-king-size rooms, one of which boasts a zip/link feature, along with a single room with a trundle, all offering flexible sleeping arrangements; breath-taking views of Portland, the turquoise sea and Chesil beach are expected from each bedroom. The property is completed with a chic bathroom, with a free-standing bath, duck egg tiles, and a walk-in shower with a rainfall fixture, ideal for a morning refresh before your adventures. Wyke Regis itself houses an array of bistros, cafes, shops, and pubs to enjoy throughout your self-catering stay, including lunches at Fresh Bites, to evening meals at The Fat Badger. The Rodwell Trail is just 25 metres from your doorstep, which is a wildlife corridor offering sea views for cycling or walking, as well as easy access to the Crab House café, Billy Winters bar & grill, and the ruins of Sandsfoot Castle. Located across the coast, head to Chesil Beach for a sandy stroll, tour Portland Castle for a taste of history, or head to SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth for an immersive, family-friendly experience. Weymouth Pavilion is also closely situated, hosting regular events and shows, whilst Nothe Fort offers panoramic views of the port, or maybe discover Sandworld Weymouth for an artistic activity. Offering something for everyone, Dorset Museum, displaying 250 million years of Dorset history, Maiden Castle, and RSPB Radipole Lake, where you can spot some of the local wildlife, are all must-see attractions. Experience the best of Dorset by choosing Fisherman's Rest as your abode.

Wyke Regis is a community on the South Western outskirts of Weymouth that stretches as far as the back of Chesil Beach and The Fleet, about two miles from the town centre. Local stores, cafés, and restaurants abound, including the well-known Crab House café, which has its own oyster beds on the premises. The National Sailing School, an Olympic legacy, is approximately two miles away on the edge of Portland Harbour and offers a wide range of water activities. The Fleet Lagoon, which flows between Wyke Regis and Chesil Beach, is an important nature refuge, with many types of birds to be observed, and Chesil Beach is also a popular fishing place. The Fleet is best known for being the test site for Barnes Wallis' bouncing bomb, which was immortalised in the film The Dam Busters. Many of Dorset's most iconic destinations along the Jurassic Coast are easily accessible from Wyke Regis.
