Lovely quiet B&B in a village which is close to lots of interesting places, great walks and Weymouth. Really nice couple own the place and they put a lot of effort into a smart property. Efficiently run, fabulous breakfast, plenty of parking and good size clean rooms. Tea and coffee making in room and extra coffee, tea and hot chocolate in lounge area, along with lots and lots of maps and local information.

Host Information

9.9
Host review score
The Heritage Bed and Breakfast dates back to 1769 - one of the oldest buildings in the area - which means some of the walls may not be straight and some of the floors might not be level! But after several months of renovation we hope your stay at The Heritage will be extremely comfortable. Weymouth with its wonderful sandy beaches, sealife centre & condor ferry to Jersey/Guersey is just 3 miles away. Ideally situated for The Granby Industrial Estate which is only 4 mins drive. To the west of The Heritage B&B lies the stunning Jurassic Coast along which you will find the picturesque villages of Abbotsbury & Burton Bradstock with thatched cottages and yummy Dorset Cream Teas, further on you come to Lyme Regis with its famous fossil finds and beautiful scenery. Over to the east, you will discover such gems as Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. All bedrooms are individually furnished with an eclectic mix of hand painted and antique furniture, Clarke & Clarke or Laura Ashley fabrics. Beds are extremely comfortable with luxury toppers and goose down pillows all covered in crisp white Egyptian cotton linen.
The Bed and Breakfast is located in the old part of Chickerell on the outskirts of Weymouth, with easy access to the coastal road to Bridport and Lyme Regis. Within walking distance of the Fleet and the South West Coastal Path.
