The beautiful River Wey after which Weymouth is named. It’s a tiny river starting in the village of Upwey and making its way to the sea about 5 miles away.
Herons frequent it and if you’re lucky you might spot one of the kingfishers who frequent its trees and banks.
The ford, pictured here, is knee deep and is often used by horse riders to give their horses a lovely cooling walk along the riverbed.
We are now taking bookings for November - come and enjoy the public bonfire on our beach and watch the fireworks over the sea, set off from a floating barge in the bay!
