Know when I stay here I know every care had been taken to keep Covid19 free. It is scrupulously clean. Patrons lovely and give confidence at every level. Breakfast is a delight.

Great people, very friendly and helpful. Fantastic attention to detail.

Very friendly and attentive hosts. Renovated historic place. Will recommend highly to all!

Food was excellent. Staff friendly especially as I was staying there on my own.

The owners were by far the best part. They were very helpful and warm people, I felt very at home. Plus it is right across the street from a beautiful beach and there are plenty of things to keep you occupied within just a few blocks.

Very clean hotel. Friendly staff. Facilities were as expected, but breakfast facilities were very good.

Nice b&b, super comfortable beds, good breakfast, friendly staff

Almost everything (Location / Breakfast / Staff etc.)

Brilliant staff Excellent breakfasts Right on the Esplanade. Parking might be an issue but all-day cards available at hotel.

Very stylish lovely town house right on the seafront in Weymouth, and room with a balcony and great views. Was immaculate. Very friendly owners met us, helped us with Parking and couldn’t have made us more welcome. Lovely breakfast too! Highly Recommend.

Jonathan and Karen Oldroyd welcome you to their coastal bed and breakfast, Gloucester House. We love living near the beach. Being so close to the sea and all that sand, puts us in a different kind of mindset & time appears to stop when we dip our toes in the water! The beach-front Gloucester House, is literally a “stone’s throw” from Weymouth’s clean, sandy beach; crowned the best beach in Britain 2017, by TripAdvisor, for its clear waters, miles of sand and perfect sunset views. Time is an invention. It tells us where to be, how fast to go, when to arrive, how to get things done. Gloucester House doesn't understand time. It tells the clock to stand still. Switch off. It is a moment to stop and discover. Gloucester House is packing up and wandering off the beaten path, because Gloucester House is freedom. It's pleasure. It's taking a step back from responsibility, taking a break from the grind. It's connecting with nature. It's jogging or strolling along the beach with the wind in your face. It's the sound of the sea murmuring in your ear and saying: "Relax, take your time, enjoy the sun as it sets over Weymouth Bay" We look forward to welcoming you soon.
Gloucester House is a stunning AA 4 Gold * Boutique bed and breakfast, situated on Weymouth’s seafront, over looking the beach and only a few minutes walk from the town and venues such as the theatre and cinema. There are a variety of restaurants and pubs within a short walk. Our location is perfectly situated close to all the attractions, events and activities to suit all your requirements and located perfectly for all that Weymouth and Dorset has to offer. Book now, you won't be disappointed.
