Grandview Reviews

Patricia

We have stayed at Grandview several times. It has good facilities and the location is one of the best in Weymouth boasting beautiful views out to sea and access to seafront promenade. Though very well equiped a few modernisations would make this a five star property. A grab bar in the master bathroom and preferably a new lower sided bath would help us older less mobile folks. The secondary shower room needs a new sturdy toilet seat.Otherwise this is an excellent place to stay.

Leslie

This is everything a holiday by the sea apartment should have. Good sized rooms, well equipped, close to amenities, parking space and most important....the view!!! When you talk about Sea views they don't come any better than this and with huge picture windows in the lounge, kitchen and main bedroom that view is always visible. We LOVED staying here and it will definitely be our first choice if we are back down in Weymouth in the future

Christopher

A comfortable apartment in a great location with lovely sea views.

What a gem. Very well equipped apartment everything you need to make you feel at home. Very comfortable. Amazing views, close to all amenities. Welcome gift very thoughtful. Had a wonderful time didn't want to leave, could sit and look out of those windows forever. Thankyou

Darren

This is our third year here, it's a wonderful place to stay, you can leave your car and walk either way to discover what Weymouth has to offer. If your after a relaxing holiday then you can't go wrong with Grandview.

Felicity

Excellent apartment, well equipped, ideal position.

Great place to stay. Panoramic views of Weymouth Bay and a peaceful spot, with the lapping of the waves as background music, and aerial displays by house martins. Generous extras left by host. All good.

A great property in a fantastic location with amazing views. The property was beautifully presented and had everything we needed for our holiday. The welcome goodies were a lovely touch. The location is perfect as we didn't need to use the car all week and having direct access to the beach was great. We had a lovely time and would definitely return to this property when we visit Weymouth again.

Beautiful location and views. Very well equipped. Spacious sunny rooms. However we have mentioned a few issues to the owner which will need attention before next year when we plan to come again!

Superb flat with all modern conveniences and a view of the sea to die for. I highly recommend as value for money and hopefully will be back next year.

Darren

Our second stay at this wonderful location, and it was a week of stress free holiday. You are close enough to weymouth to be able to stroll in, yet far enough away that in the evening it's peaceful. I can't recommend this location enough, just book it and enjoy all it has to offer

Edward

We had a fantastic stay at Grandview. It was a perfect location for us and our 87 year old mother. The views were outstanding. The apartment was well equipped and the welcomepack was much appreciated many thanks. We would definitely recommend and hope to return again.

Great property in a perfect location with stunning views. It was very clean and had all the amenities you needed.

Pauline

Great place to stay . Weymouth town just a short way and beautiful views over bay .

Christine

The property was fantastic. Spacious and comfortable, with such a 'grand view' of the sea. It was extremely well supplied, with lots of home comforts provided, including freebies on arrival, soap in all bathrooms, a great range of DVDs, beach towels and spare blankets everything had been thought of. I'd say this is the nicest holiday apartment we've stayed in.

Fabulous location. The owner sent me a text message and greeted us when we arrived. Extra touches made us feel welcome flowers, tea, biscuits, Prosecco and a bottle of port !!! The apartment was quirky, spacious and very well equipped. Views were even better than the photos. An extra portion of garden space would have been the icing on the cake. Would love to return again. Many thanks

Patricia

We enjoyed another wonderful stay in this clean well equipped flat with an amazing sea view. Appreciated the redecoration and small improvements made since our last stay. Thank you for adding the clear instructions for appliances and TV. We definitely plan to return. Suggestion modernation to the hall bathroom with the addition of a walk in shower would be a future great improvement.

Most enjoyable. Bottles of Prosecco and Port provided, also nice savory and Shortbread biscuits provided. Beautiful yellow roses also

Kathryn

The apartment in Weymouth was lovely. Absolutely spotless and very comfortable. It's location overlooking the sea but just a short walk into the middle of Weymouth was ideal. The owner made us very welcome and the little extras left for us were very much appreciated. Highly recommended. Lovely apartment in a loverly place.

Elaine

This apartment really provides all you could want for a perfect holiday. Fantastic sea view from all front windows. Gate from garden onto beach. Short walk to town . Huge light filled rooms with quality furnishings, spotlessly clean. Fully equipped full kitchen. Games, should it ever rain in Weymouth. Hosts are very friendly and will go the extra mile, and are close by should you need them. This is my 2nd Holiday at Grandview and I will be booking again for next year. We also like that there is parking for 1 car at property, so no worrying about that.

This is our favourite seaside escape and we have stayed here many times. The facilities are first class and the property has an unbeatable position overlooking the promenade and sea. We are always given a warm and generous welcome by the owners.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Grandview. The apartment has large and airy rooms, with the main ones enjoying panoramic views across the bay. There is direct access to the promenade and beach through the back garden via a side gate and from there you can either walk into town in one direction, or to the country park in the other. No need to take the car out! The property is wellequipped and the owners clearly take care to ensure that all is in order, providing a super welcome pack to start your holiday and being easily contactable for any questions you may have. We have stayed in many different UK holiday homes over the years Grandview is among the best for a seaside break.

5 accommodation, 5 location and the owner of the property and family were one of the nicest families I have ever come across. The apartment was everything we imagined and more. Everything was catered for, and thought out with a lovely welcome gift, I'm slowly making my way through the Dorset Tea. It was amazing to have parking on site for one car and a stones throw away from the beach...literally, I could throw a stone out of the window, I didn't, but I could. If I have to think of something to make it a 5 would be no stair gate on the stairs which would be useful for next year when I come again and my baby will be a crawling baby. Definitely looking to book Grandview for next year as there is nothing that would beat this place. It was home from home. Thank you for the most magical week. P.S. The Chinese you recommended was DELICIOUS!

Darren

Grandview is well named, to wake up every morning and open the curtains was a perfect start to every day. As a base to explore Dorset its perfectly located, and having a space to park means you can leave the car and wander the promenade into Weymouth or up to sea life centre. Michelle also made sure we were happy during our stay, and made us feel welcome. Now I just have to work out how much I need to save per month to book again next summer

The view and location are obviously amazing and the rest of the house matched these in quality. It was such a comfortable place to stay and all the equipment and furnishings were top quality. The owners were very helpful thank you for all the lovely and thoughtful welcome gifts.

Grandview is just that, the view of the bay is fabulous always something to look at. The apartment is very well equipped especially the kitchen. Owner very friendly and informed us of events in Weymouth.

Our first impression on arriving at the property was quite disappointing very unappealing outside and the entrance, we wondered what we would find inside. The inside gave a better impression the view was amazing even in the rain. A lot of thought had been taken in providing for everyones needs for a good holiday. The pathway down to the small paved area that is available for use is very untidy and overgrown and not at all inviting so therefore we did not use. The grassed area is not for use. We still enjoyed our holiday.

We had a wonderful stay at Grandview. The accommodation was superb, with the benefit of spectacular Sea views. The apartment had all the facilities we required, including a private access to the beach. This was an added bonus, especially with a young child. The owners were very welcoming, and helpful on our arrival. We would look forward to staying there again, and will definitely recommend this apartment to family and friends. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The owner has obviously put a lot of thought and effort into providing a comfortable apartment for a family holiday. Combining this with its excellent location provides a holiday destination to recommend.

Grandview is a large, spacious apartment, which was easy to keep cool in the hot weather. It has brilliant views over the sea and coastline, and the beach is just down the garden and across the promenade. It is very well equipped, and the table, chairs and sunshade in the garden were useful. The beach was mostly quiet in June, but with the occasional dog and horse. It is pebbly, then sand under the sea. Good restaurants nearby and a short drive away. A short walk into the town, and the harbour. We would like to come again.

We had the best holiday! 2 adults and 2 children. The flat was so large and spacious and the garden area is an amazing added bonus catching the last rays of sunshine. Using the gate to access the beach was brilliant with 2 young children just 2 minutes to pop back for the toilet or anything else they'd forgotten. There are so many extras including a beautiful vase of roses that outlasted our stay... can't say the same for all the other goodies

Jacqueline

We had the most wonderful holiday at Grandview, the apartment is so spacious, bright & comfortable. The location could not have been better & the panoramic views of the bay are breathtaking, it really does have the wow factor. The owners were extremely helpful with information about the area & the welcome gifts were such a lovely touch. We will most definitely be going again, thank you making us so at home.

Patricia

We really enjoyed our stay at Grandview. It really lived up to its name, with wonderful views of the sea and coast from kitchen, main bedroom and living room. It was great to be able to use the little back gate to gain direct access to the esplanade and beach. Weymouth has a lovely harbour, with cafes, pubs and restaurants, and is also a good base to visit other places along the Jurassic coast, e.g. Chesil beach. We can recommend the sub tropical gardens at Abbotsbury and Henry VIII's fort at Portland, also the Nothe fort in Weymouth.

A large comfortable flat with a view to die for just 10 minutes walk from the train station. Even better than the listing which doesnt mention the beautiful sunrises over the sea that you can enjoy if you get up early enough. A great location with direct access to the beach and car free prom via a gate at the side of the building. It was a lot more expensive than other flats we looked at in Weymouth and more than we would normally pay. However we had no regrets and were glad that we had treated ourselves. Ive only given 4 stars for facilities because of a couple of very minor issues one of the sofas has lost a bit of its seating support. Nice having a sink in the second bedroom but need a hook to hang the towel. We couldnt find instructions for TV or gas fire, Im sure the owner would have helped but we managed to work things out after some trial and error. We had a great time and I would highly recommend this lovely flat.

The apartment is clean and comfortable. It has great views of the sea. We enjoyed our time there.

Elaine

The view of the sea from this apartment is amazing. We spent a lot of time looking out of the windows. It is very close to the town centre etc. The apartment is huge, well equipped and spotless. The owners are very welcoming. So good we have booked for next year already

Christine

We were made welcome by Michelle, fresh flowers and treats were awaiting our arrival. The flat is very spacious and well furnished with wonderful sea views. The kitchen is really well equipped too. The only slight niggle is that the small patio available for guests needs tidying and weeding. We also could not get into the summerhouse, although I am sure this would have been sorted out if we had broached it. Would recommend this property especially with the easy access from the garden to the beach.

We have been staying for a week at Grandview almost every year, for 9 years. We love it for its close proximity to the to the beach,the harbour and and the surrounding areas Portland and more of the southwest Dorset coast, with lots of interesting places to visit and good walks. It is very comfortable and well equipped and we expect to return there again.

Douglas

An excellent apartment with stunning views from 3 of the rooms. The owner was extremely pleasant and helpful but not at all intrusive.

We had a fantastic stay, very spacious with comfortable beds. Close to children's attractions and amenities and only a stones throw from the beach.
