Georgian seafront guest house in Weymouth with family-sized rooms and locally sourced breakfasts
Rooms & Accommodations
The 12 guest rooms include single, double, twin, and family accommodations that sleep up to five people. Selected rooms offer direct views of Weymouth Bay from the front of this Grade II listed building from 1827. Each room has a private bathroom, a flat-screen TV, and a refrigerator with fresh milk provided daily.
Amenities & Services
The guest house provides secure storage for bicycles and athletic equipment. Parking permits for the nearby Swannery car park are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Bottled water, beach towels, and umbrellas are offered at the entrance for guest use.
Location & Nearby Attractions
The Gresham sits on the seafront esplanade, 0.6 miles from Weymouth harbour and a 2-minute walk from the train station. Chesil Beach and the Jurassic Coast are a short bus ride away, and Weymouth Marina is 800 metres from the property. The beach is directly across the road, with public transport and shops within a 5-minute walk.
Family-Friendly Offerings
Children have access to board games, puzzles, books, DVDs, and music, plus buckets and spades for the beach. The family room accommodates up to five guests, and baby equipment (such as a travel cot) is available on request. Beach towels for children are provided, and the owners offer local recommendations for family outings.
Dining & Breakfast
Breakfast is cooked to order daily, featuring locally sourced sausages and bacon from the butcher, Dorset cereals, and Tiptree conserves. Guests pre-order the previous evening via an app to reduce food waste. Vegan, gluten-free, and other dietary options are available upon request, and the dining room overlooks the sea.

“This is a thoughtfully managed guest house, positioned directly opposite the sea, making its location a clear standout. The attention to cleanliness and comfort is evident throughout, and the personalized welcome from the owner, Louise, creates a distinctly warm and accommodating atmosphere. Coupled with a well-cooked breakfast enjoyed with a view, it's a place that genuinely prioritizes guest well-being.”
