Beach Gem

Weymouth's beach, harbour and seafront shops are within walking distance of Beach Gem, a ground-floor flat with everything on one level. The Jurassic Coast's coastal paths and clifftop views are also nearby, along with Alexandra Gardens and various historical sites worth a visit if you want to venture slightly further.

The flat has two bedrooms—a king-size and a twin—sharing one bathroom with a shower over the bath. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is where you'll spend most of your time; there's a dishwasher, electric oven and hob for cooking, and a smart TV for quieter evenings. Large windows bring in natural light. Bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi and heating are all included. A travel cot and highchair are available if needed. Parking is a seven-minute walk away.

This works for couples, small families or friends wanting a base near the coast without the fuss of multiple floors. The pub is within a mile. Smoking is not permitted inside.
