A splash of colour beneath Weymouth 🐙🦈

The underpass near Radipole Lake has had a fabulous underwater makeover, thanks to some very talented local artists.

Sharks, rays, seahorses, turtles and plenty of tentacles now brighten it right up .

We think it looks brilliant and it’s definitely worth a look next time you’re wandering around Radipole Lake.

Meet a friend of The Gresham 📚

Local author Rachel Knowles has a real passion for Regency history, something that feels very much at home here at The Gresham, with our building dating back to 1827.

Rachel kindly helped us put together our Regency Weymouth history leaflets, sharing some of the fascinating stories of Weymouth in the time of George III, from sea bathing to everyday life more than 200 years ago.

She is also the author of a wonderful collection of Regency-set historical romance novels, bringing the people, places and atmosphere of the period to life through fiction.

We’re delighted to have a selection of Rachel’s books here at The Gresham too, ready for guests to pick up, settle into a comfy chair and enjoy during their stay. 📖

Over the next few posts, we’ll be sharing a little more about Rachel’s books, including some with a particularly lovely Weymouth connection.

All aboard! 🚂

Fancy seeing Weymouth from a slightly different perspective?

The award-winning Weymouth Land Train takes you on a tour from the seafront, across the Town Bridge and around our historic harbour to Hope Square.

It’s a fun little way to explore more of the town, and perhaps give the legs a rest while you’re at it. 😊

Just one of the many ways to see a little more of Weymouth while you’re staying with us.

There are worse views to wake up to…

One of our favourite things about being right on Weymouth’s seafront has to be opening the (fabulous) curtains and finding *this* waiting outside.

Sea, sky and the beach just across the road.

Sometimes it really is all about the view. ✨

A little change of scenery over at Premier Portland Marina. ⚓️

Just a short trip from Weymouth, and a lovely spot for a quiet wander by the water, watching the boats and taking things at a slightly slower pace.

Definitely worth a little detour while you’re here. 😊

A little bit of Weymouth blue 💙

Calm waters at the harbour, blue skies over the bay… just two of our favourite views around town.

Not a bad place to spend a few days, is it? ☀️🌊

Big thanks to our incredible local lifeboat crew and volunteers for all that they do. 👏🚤

Weymouth looks pretty good from up here.

The bay, the town, the surrounding countryside… and one of Dorset’s most recognisable landmarks keeping watch from the hills.
