Our holiday at the Ferryman was wonderful. Place was very clean, and had everything we needed and more. Owners really nice and even called on our first day to check all was well with our stay. The added bonus of the harbour being right outside where the kids could go crabbing was wonderful. Such a lovely view to wake up each morning. Would love to come back someday. Thank you.

I booked this property for my mother in law for a visit to see us in Weymouth. She said this is the best property she has ever stayed in. Immaculately clean, really well presented, a prefect view of the harbour and so comfortable she didn’t want to leave. She is already looking at dates for a visit later in the year.

4th time we have stayed here, and have had a lovely stay again. From the moment we walk through the front door, we feel right at home. There is everything we need, and the view, as always, is absolutely delightful. The goody hamper is such a treat, and we had no problem parking near the property. We would not hesitate to stay again, when visiting Weymouth and Dorset, and look forward to doing so.
