A light-filled apartment near Weymouth with glimpses of the sea is ideal for dog-loving families or couples who want pets to share their holiday. The first-floor property, set in a fine period house, sleeps four guests and welcomes two canine companions. Your furry friends will revel in the year-round, dog-friendly beach at beautiful Bowleaze Cove, just a half -mile stroll away, while the lively seaside resort of Weymouth (3 miles) has a host of attractions to explore.
The apartment is attractively styled, with soft colour tones that create a homely feel. In the spacious lounge/dining room, with comfortable sofas, an armchair in the large bay window is the perfect spot to enjoy those sea views. The good-size kitchen has a cosy breakfast nook and everything you need to rustle up a meal. There are two pretty bedrooms: a king-size with an en-suite shower and a twin with zip-and-link beds. A family bathroom completes the interior.
Make tracks to Bowleaze Cove and a sand and shingle beach where your pups can have hours of fun as they scamper across the sand or splash through the waves. Pack up a picnic or eat out at the friendly cafe. Feeling energetic? Take your pets on the undulating 3.5-mile walk along the South West Coast Path to the seaside hamlet of Osmington Mills, enjoying wonderful views along the way. Search for fossils on the rocky beach, once used by smugglers to land their contraband. Then have a well-earned drink and snack at the picturesque pub overlooking the sea. Weymouth has a colourful harbour, a glorious sandy beach, with a year-round area designated for dogs, and a fine Georgian seafront. Visit historic Nothe Fort, with pets on leads, for amazing 360-degree coastal vistas.
