Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Weymouth and Portland District

We had a wonderful stay in Cara‘s Portland cottage. We were there over Christmas week. Cara had decorated the house beautifully for Christmas and was really responsive to every request. We know Portland well and have many friends we were there to visit, so we already knew what a fabulous place it is to be. The cottage was really well stocked with all the equipment we needed and more. Cara left us a fabulous hamper of Christmas bits and bobs - so much we couldn’t get through it all! Thank you, Cara. We will be back!

I cannot begin to describe how lovely our stay was. Tristan is the most amazing host we have ever had at an AirBnb. He was responsive to questions, helpful, caring, and just so sweet. He even helped us back our giant rental van into the garage when we arrived. We had a perfect welcome basket upon our arrival and staples left for us in the fridge, so we had everything we needed for a delicious breakfast the next day. The house itself is even nicer than pictures show. It’s beautiful, modern, and clean. The beds were very comfortable, and having three full bathrooms and an additional half bathroom was amazing, especially for a party of 6 people. The location was perfect, the ocean views were gorgeous, and the home was so comfortable that we didn’t want to leave. Any time we visit Lyme Regis in the future, we will always stay here!

The house was ideal for our Christmas guests. Louise and Barry could not have been more helpful and kind and we loved the Christmas decorations!!

The house was a perfect location for us as a family. We regularly visit Swanage and this is now the closest to town we have stayed. You would not think in less than 5 minutes you would be in town due to how quiet it was. House was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Plenty of space for a family of 5. If we needed Anne we knew we could have messaged. We managed to find parking not far from the house so this was also no issue for us. Will look again at staying here as we can not fault it at all. 5*

We had a great stay. Brilliant communication from Rosalie and the house did not disappoint. Looking forward to going back. Thank you Rosalie.

Accommodation totally met our expectations. Loads of maps etc and local information. Fully enclosed garden which kept our dog safe. On the one wet day, resorted to the extensive DVD & book range. Very comfortable place just to chill and we are looking forward to our next visit.

We stayed at Danni's for a local wedding, it was perfect. Loads of space and well equipped, had everything we needed for a great weekend!

Excellent place for a big group and a very clean property. Had a pub nearby and other restaurants. Great garden which is dog friendly. Matt was very responsive. We had some hot tub issues which Matt was happy to rectify. would highly reccomend staying here!

We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have been made to feel more welcome by our lovely hosts.. The location is fantastic with good restaurants, an incredible harbour and miles of white sandy beach within walking distance. The novelty of staying on Sandbanks added a unique interest .. we loved it 😊.. Thank you Madeleine, Michelle and Nick for your warm hospitality 😊 x

David and Pamela were very welcoming, friendly and accommodating. We stayed for 1 night and all went as well as the description stated. Thank you for your hospitality and would recommend staying at their apartment. Easy parking and close to town and amenities.

Accommodation is very homely and comfortable with lots of home comforts. It is a perfect location for access to beach, harbour and town with ease of access to some lovely bars and restaurants. Fantastic location for beautiful walks. We’ve stayed here many times and will do so again.

We had a perfect 3 days of exploring Sandbanks, Studland Bay and Poole Harbour from this amazingly private and central spot. The weather was beautiful, which added to the experience, but most of all, the apartment was in such a good place and so very well equipped (all our needs thoughtfully catered for including toiletries, beach towels and chairs, snacks and milk in the fridge) that everything seemed easy. I have no hesitation in recommending this lovely apartment.

Fabulously spacious apartment for 2 couples. Light and airy and just a 20 walk from the promenade. Very secure building with everything we needed for a most enjoyable and comfortable weekend stay. The hosts are very responsive, and the apartment and its fittings and decor are of a high quality. The comfortable beds are to be noted.

Lovely property it had all the amenities. Good location. Near the centre of Swanage, about 10 minute walk. Lots of restaurants and shops. Near the beach. There a smart tv with Netflix, YouTube Disney+, everything you have with smart tv.

Perfect location, central and by the park. On a busy rod but you can’t hear it from inside, it’s a quiet, cosy and calming space. We all had a great sleep, beds very comfortable. Mark was very helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Great place - great decor and such a fantastic situation for getting to the beach and high street.

The Annex is very clean, spacious and comfortable. Tony and Caroline welcomed us and we appreciated the thoughtful extras provided. The location is perfect for walking into Weymouth and also around the coast - we had a really lovely stay :)

Steven's apartment was truly great and as described. There was everything you needed for a home meal, and instructions were perfectly clear, which made our arrival and check out hassle free. Overall spotlessly clean. The location was a plus! Would definitely book again! :)

Lovely apartment with everything needed for stay. Great views out to sea in a quiet area with garden furniture available. Bedroom is hugh with a sofa to enjoy the garden and view from inside. Very hilly walk to and from town but you can go via Ware road through a gate via the countryside to avoid road, very pleasant. Lots of places to eat and things to do. Took a drive to walk to Golden Cap amazing views and a good farm shop on drive back. Melanie was very helpful and would must definitely recommend staying at Green Tor.

I would give 6 stars if I could! The place is even more beautiful than the photos. Every detail is very well thought, we were impressed by the details such as the number of children's books and games. The instructions left by the host are incredibly detailed and helpful. The location is only a few 100 metres from the sea and very close to the centre as well. And free parking at the front of the building!

Mike is a fabulously knowledgeable host and his property was lovely! I would strongly recommend staying with Mike if you are visiting Lyme Regis

Nice clean accommodation, well decorated with everything you would need, good communication from Maureen regarding the stay. Tesco nearby for groceries, Cafe 100yds away for coffee and breakfast or dinner. We stayed for a weekend and went to eat at Rick Steins one night and Poole harbour the next night.

We had a lovely stay at the Coast House! The location was perfect for visiting the spots we had planned out and the home itself had a very homely feeling. Kelly and Scott were very responsive when booking and were great hosts!

Family of 5 stayed here for 2 nights and we all really enjoyed it. You are about 5 minutes drive to Bournemouth sea front and about 10-15 minutes to Southbourne beach. You are also a 5ish minute walk to Tesco Express (it's quicker to walk there than Drive) which is handy, there was also some restaurants in the same area but we didn't try any. The house was very clean and well looked after and a really good sized garden for the kids to run around in. Beds were all made up ready for us and few bits left out as a welcome gift which were a nice touch. Angela was also very accessible throughout the stay if we needed her.
