What our customers say about their holidays

• James - Verified booking

  I have used Dream Cottages for holidays since 2013, a number of times in the Brewers Quay area of Weymouth.

  Once again they amazed me with the quality and cleanliness of the accommodation. The property, located in a gated Muse, is well appointed and has everything you need for a great self-catering holiday, or just to use it as a base whilst exploring the area. Covered parking opposite the property is an added bonus too. Pubs and restaurants are 5 minutes away in Hope Square and even more a minute or two further, to the harbour, or 10 -15 minutes to Weymouth town centre and the beautiful beach, (a smallish section by the Pavilion and amusements is dog friendly all year round). The property's master bedroom on its third level, has a very comfortable king-size double bed. There is plenty of storage space in the bedrooms and the master has the added bonus of an on-suite bathroom, albeit getting into the corner shower could be a bit of a tight squeeze for some! That said there is a further bathroom opposite bedroom 2 with a bath with hand shower over, and a cloakroom toilet downstairs. The kitchen as with the lounge and rest of the property is excellent. One slightly negative point is that in the description of the property, whilst it mentions a small patio to the front, it fails to mention there is no garden. As a dog owner, this could be a problem if you don't want to let your dog roam around the courtyard area. However 5 minutes and less than half a mile away along Newton's Road, overlooking Newton's Cove and Portland, is a lovely, safe, cliff-top open space to exercise your four legged companion. Alternatively, a lovely stroll can be had through Nothe Gardens, again a few minutes away. Whilst during my stay there was construction work taking place opposite Shire Horse Mews and also nearby, long term renovation work to the listed buildings of the old Devenish Brewery, neither caused an issue during my stay. Would I stay at this property again? Definitely yes, and use Dream Cottages for my next booking? Most definitely.

  The spacious apartment is just a few steps from the beach and offers a well-equipped kitchen. It’s perfect for those who enjoy cooking their own meals. The bright windows facing the sea provide sunshine during breakfast (weather permitting). During peak season, it can be quite lively outside the apartment, even late at night. The bedroom is at the back, but unfortunately, you can hear a ventilation system when the window is open. Light sleepers might find this disturbing. We kept the bedroom window closed at night and ventilated through the living room. The apartment is ideally located for long walks, with everything you need within walking distance. You can enjoy the smart TV in the living room or the smaller TV in the bedroom. The bathroom is spacious and well-equipped with both a shower and a bathtub. Overall, the apartment is in good condition, though you can see signs of wear from previous guests. The washer-dryer and dishwasher are very convenient, although the dishwasher’s drying function was broken during our stay and couldn’t be fixed. It still washed well, and drying by hand wasn’t a big issue. We would love to come back.

  This was our second stay this year at this quality apartment. It’s well equipped, ideally situated with excellent views of the beach, close to all amenities and has permit car parking. What’s not to like? Well.......there is some noise from the patrons outside the restaurant downstairs and at weekends live music in the evenings, which we could hear, but it was acceptable. However on the last weekend of our stay (11th and 12th October) it moved into full nightclub mode including some kind of “boombox” sound system obviously located just below the floor of the apartment. From around 8:30 to 11:30 the noise and vibration was tremendous, shaking the floor and windows. When it finally subsided the sounds of clearing up continued into the early hours. Not the best night’s sleep prior to having to vacate the apartment by 9:00am Sunday morning. I’m afraid, this time, we will not be back, unless something is done about the nightclub noise.

  This was our third visit to the cottage after a 11 year break.

  The cottage had been redecorated and kitchen revamped since our last stay and it looked much better. The welcome box was lovely to find and a pint of milk which was great. The cottage is ideal for exploring the harbour, nothe fort and Newtons cove all within 5 mins or so walking.Our stay was comfortable but we did find the walls between the cottage not great soundproofing! A few negatives, pillows are in real need of being replaced on the main king size bed, totally worn out and pillow protectors on the twin beds were stained. A bread board is needed in the kitchen. Our big negative point is lack of recycling. We resulted in taking cans, plastic and glass to the recycling bins on the sea front. Local Asda had no banks for cans, glass or plastic. We've stayed in many cottages and recycling has always been part of the cottage's instructions. Apart from that we love Weymouth and would stay again at Footsteps.

  Lovely apartment. It had everything we needed. Very comfortable throughout, from furnishing, decoration and equipment provided including coffee machine with pods and cream and loved the quirky layout. Fantastic location, lots of local brochures available for ideas on how to spend your time there. The bed was very comfortable and the homely touch of a wall mounted TV - not that we watched it in the bedroom, and loved the balcony too. Lots of bars and places to eat out, visited the local cinema. This little gem is ideally located in the heart of Weymouth, perfect for our holiday with the added bonus of having a parking permit. There are a lots of stairs which could be a challenge for some people so I would recommend that people look at the virtual view of the apartment to check the layout of the place prior to booking.
