Weymouth and Portland District : chambres d'hôtel

The Old Rectory is in a beautiful location, surrounded by lush fields and nature. It’s a perfect place to stay for rambling holidays or just to relax. This original Victorian building was great to explore its grand interior. Caroline was a lovely host and was very welcoming throughout our stay. There was also a lovely dog called Sam that greeted us on arrival! Every morning a cooked breakfast was served at your requested time with fresh tea and coffee. The spread of granola and other cereals was a great addition. Just to note (from staying in the green room) the bathroom and toilet facilities are not attached to the room- instead you leave your room and walk down a hall to them but you are in your own private wing of the house.

Excellent room , so light and spacious. Tastefully presented and very cosy En-suite was spotless .

Great value - very clean, and great amenities. Very quiet which was unexpected as it was full up for a festival in the town. Breakfast eas even provided free of charge. Will definitely come back.

Very rural peaceful surroundings. Welcomed by Kate. A good size family room, loved that pets were welcome too. Good breakfast selection, pre ordered & cooked at the booked time. Liked that we were introduced to the other guests at breakfast.

Clear instructions received from Kerry and access was easy to the lodge. The lodge was a little smaller than I was expecting as in there was nowhere to sit down and have a cup of tea for example but I suppose that’s what the outdoor space is for but was just a little chilly this time of year. The outdoor space was lovely and it felt extremely private although we did have a man doing some noisy work on a building next to the lodge at 10am on our day of departure so that wasn’t great. Would have been nice if he could have waited until checkout time of 11am. The road noise didn’t bother us at all as mentioned in quite a few other reviews. We live in a busy main road so may just be used to it and we also had the lodge furthest away from the road. Minor issue but it mentioned in the listing that there was salt pepper and oil provided but there wasn’t and so was bit annoyed as I hadn’t brought any. Accommodation is really cute. Must come back in summer to use the bath!

Really enjoyed the stay at 'The Ferns', it was comfortable, quiet and there were plenty of owls around! Would definitely recommend
