Property information

Beachcomber Guesthouse is a charming 4 storey Edwardian townhouse set in a row of 12 similar properties. Waterloo Place is a lovely looking block as all guesthouses have bay windows and are painted cream and blue. We are located on the main Esplanade, just across the road from Weymouth's famous sandy beach. We only take children over the age of 12 years and don’t cater for dogs or any other pets. Beachcomber Guest House featured in The Sunday Times magazine on 8 August 2021 in an article about British Bed and Breakfasts.

Neighbourhood information

Waterloo Place is located off the Esplanade away from the town and up near the stump of the old pier. It only takes about 10 minutes to walk to town along the flat beachside Esplanade walk. During the summer months there is a land train that runs regularly and there is also a bus stop opposite that can drop you off in town. For guests not wanting to go back into town of an evening, there are 2 or 3 restaurants and bars that are an easy walk from the Beachcomber as well as the great British fish and chip shop!! Weymouth's famous sandy beach is across the road from the Beachcomber and stretches up towards the town. Located on the beach are 2 large beach bars open all year and during the summer months there are more ice-cream kiosks as well as trampolines, helter-skelter, volley-ball and donkey's!! The beach is patrolled by the RNLI during the summer.
