The screened balcony is a wonderful additional where you can sit with your morning cup of tea or coffee, before heading out to discover the delights of Weymouth, or once the sun has set, you sit here with a blanket and glass of wine in hand and watch the pretty twinkling lights of the esplanade light up the coast. The town centre of Weymouth has many things to see and do. Take a wander along the old historic harbour which leads you past many cafes and coffee shops where you can treat yourself to an ice cream or Dorset Cream Tea. Why not take a picnic up to the Nothe Gardens and sit and watch the local wildlife such as birds and squirrels roam the glorious grassed areas, where you will also discover Newtons Cove, with its shallow waters and rock pools, great for fossil hunting, and not forgetting the stunning panoramic views around to Portland Harbour and beyond. Spot exotic sea creatures in SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth or explore the cliffside remains of Sandsfoot Castle, best known for its well-kept gardens and spectacular sea views. See magnificent sand sculptures at Northe Fort, or head inland to for a fun-filled day with the Jurassic Safari. Whatever you choose to do on your staycation, Ocean Retreat is simply a beautiful home away from home in which to explore the wonders of the Jurassic Coast.
