The Riverkeeper

The Riverkeeper: Dorset

Found in a little village unto itself, this newly built, family-friendly cottage allows you to slip away for a while. With a spa, communal pool and gym, and shared tennis court on site, it doesn't leave you wanting for too much, but Weymouth is always twenty-minutes away if you happen think of anything. Being near the Jurassic Coast also puts you within driving distance of several beaches, but with access to a small resort beach, you might find yourself forgetting where you left the car keys. Though the outdoors isn't the most private considering you have neighbours on all sides, the patio furniture is still a nice touch for a glass of wine at sunset.

Home truths:
*Your host operates several apartments here, so the exact view, layout and furnishings might differ slightly from the photos. However, the overall quality should remain the same.
*We suggest hiring a car for ease – there's parking available on a gravel driveway.
*As there are stairs to climb here, it might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
*You'll have access to the on-site gym, spa, tennis court and swimming pool here. They're shared with the resort's other residents.
*This home is situated in a complex with another villa right next door - it's not the most private.
*Construction work is ongoing in the area around the home, so be prepared to experience some noise disturbance during your stay.
