Devenish House is a charming Georgian, Grade 2 listed property located in Hope Square, Weymouth, Dorset, in the South West of England. Just steps away from Weymouth Harbour and a 10-minute walk to Weymouth Beach, this family-friendly home offers 4 bedrooms and 3 reception rooms, accommodating up to 6 guests. The house features a sitting room, dining room, well-equipped kitchen, and small courtyard with pot plants. Bedrooms are spread across the first, second, and third floors, with adult-sized beds and two travel cots available for young children.
Nearby attractions include Newton's Cove, a small beach with rock pools, and Nothe Fort gardens, perfect for picnics. The town centre is a short walk away, offering restaurants, tea shops, and a pub with live music on Sundays during July and August. The house is equipped with modern amenities such as flat screen TVs, DVD players, and a gas central heating system for colder months. Bed linen and bathroom towels are provided, but guests should bring their own beach towels and cot bedding if needed.
Parking options include a nearby long-term car park on Barrack Road or free on-street parking on Horsford Street leading to Barrack Road. The house operates on a Saturday change-over day policy, with a 7-night minimum stay during school holidays and shorter stays available outside of peak times. Longer stays of up to 4 weeks are also welcome. Guests can use the JustPark app to pay for parking at Nothe car park if needed. While the house features three fireplaces, they are non-functional due to blocked chimneys, with gas central heating providing warmth instead.
