Weymouth, on the South Coast of England, is a perfect place to head to escape the everyday stresses. While there are plenty of opportunities to cut loose and have fun, this is a town that really comes into its own if you’re someone who enjoys a long walk amid stunning scenery. Weymouth’s position on the Jurassic Coast – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – makes for some epic views and interesting hikes. Its harbour hosts some wonderful pleasure cruises, and you can charter a yacht to experience that beautiful coastal vista from another angle. Day trips to nearby Bournemouth and Poole are also worth your time, but you’ll find plenty to keep you occupied right here. Additionally, with a range of guest houses and hotels to choose from, you can be sure of a pleasant, relaxing break.

4. Wadham Guesthouse: one for the artists (from 97 USD (72 GBP))
There is more to Weymouth than beautiful coastline and shore-based activities, though of course those are a selling point. For those who want to get deeper into the history of this town – and English maritime history in general – attractions such as the Weymouth D-Day Museum will be a fascinating stop. Wadham Guesthouse is located perfectly for trips to see that and other enriching stops such as Leighton Art Gallery and the Deep Sea Experience. If you want a bit of a duvet day, then you can stay in your room and enjoy satellite TV and coffee/tea making facilities.

5. Apartment with a sea view
This stylish apartment comprises of a plush living area and an ensuite bathroom, along with a magical view of the Dorset coastline. That may be why the owner has named it “Perfect View”, and he’s not wrong. Recently refurbished, the apartment doesn’t currently have cooking facilities; however, that’s all the more reason to pop into Weymouth Town and shop for a picnic that you can enjoy while looking out over the beach, or try one of the many excellent fish and chip shops in the area.
