    Excellent seaside B&B. The entire premises is kept in immaculate condion. Including even brand new, very plush carpet throughout. The full English breakfast was first class. Well-cooked and served piping hot, just as it demands.. And the location and views are awesome. My attic room overlooked the beach and Weymouth Bay. You could while away ages just looking out of the window. Once outdoors, you are just yards from the harbour and town centre. For public transport, the Kings Statue bus stops, K1-K8 are just a 3-minute walk. And Weymouth railway station is only a 10-minute walk. Very nice hosts, as well.

    The Anchorage is in a fantastic location with wonderful views of the sea, beach and harbour. It's just a short walk to everything; town, buses, eating places, shops, harbour, beach, station and theatre. Our room (family room with sea view) was comfortable and clean and had the bonus of a small seating area by the window. The hosts were friendly and knowledgeable about the local area. It happened to be Armed Forces Weekend when we visited and following Sarah's advice we watched the excellent parade (Veterans, bands and old military vehicles) from our window and waved a couple of flags. The cooked breakfast was freshly prepared and very tasty and the dining room also had a lovely sea view. There is also a lounge with a harbour view. On the day we were leaving the hosts kindly stored our luggage after we had checked out. The Anchorage is good value and being able to cancel without cost until around a week before is very helpful. Weymouth is a great location, having traditional beach facilities, plenty of eating places, a busy harbour which is great to watch, good transport links and interesting places to visit. The sea cruise and rowing boat ferry from Ferry Steps (just outside the B and B) are both great. All the buses go from the Kings Statue which is a short walk from the B and B and in the summer there is a helpful man who supervises the bus area and provides helpful information about all the services.

    Can't fault anything.

    My room was at the top of the house, which was a bit of a climb, but it wasn't a hard climb, but the view was well worth it, you looked right over the beach and out to sea. The room although a single, was a good size, clean and bright, all in all a great place to stay.

    Nothing to dislike.

    I stayed for 3 nights in mid-May ‘25. I stayed in a single room with a sink and access to an external private toilet and bathroom. The room was comfortable for a small single room and the room, toilet and bathroom were very clean. Tea and coffee facilities were provided. The room was cleaned each day. The location of the property is excellent with easy access to the town, beach and harbour. I travelled by train and the property is around a 15 min walk from the station. I had a good vegetarian breakfast each morning. The owner is friendly and helpful. I’d stay again.

    We really enjoyed our stay. Weymouth is amazing and can't wait to go back.

    The ensuite shower room was a little cramped, and we didn't like that it didn't have a sink, so you had to wash your hands in the bedroom after using the loo. The breakfast, while excellent, was a little regimented and limited. You had to decide the day before what you wanted, and you had to go down at a certain time. We would have preferred things to be a little more casual with a wider range of breakfast options (appreciate this may be difficult with smaller venues).

    The location was perfect with excellent views across Weymouth beach and within walking distance of everything we wanted from the visit. The room was spotlessly clean and decorations were fresh and tidy throughout. You could tell the pride the owners have for the place. The breakfast was well prepared fresh each morning and was of high quality. Weymouth is awesome, and we loved the amusements in the nearby arcade. Sarah, our host, was very friendly, welcoming and helpful.
