The guest house offers a spa experience, with its sauna, hot tub and spa facilities. The guest house also features free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. It was a lovely little spot with a nice view of rolling hills. The sauna was nice but took a long time toheat up. The hot tub was really nice. It was great having a separate living room/kitchenette since we were travelling with a baby.

Situated in Weymouth, 2 km from Weymouth Beach and 2.9 km from Weymouth Harbour, Calm sea guesthouse features accommodation with free WiFi in a historic building. The property is located 24 km from Monkey World, 36 km from Corfe Castle and 41 km from Golden Cap. The guest house has family rooms. We visited Calm Sea Guesthosue with our young children and we had a wonderful stay. The room was beautifully clean, comfortable and included little extras such as sweets and games for the children and fresh milk in the fridge. Trish and Mel were beyond accommodating and lovely - they went above and beyond to make our time perfect. They even washed our son’s very sandy and wet coats for us, helped us with our bags, gave great recommendations and made delicious breakfast. Our children loved their chocolate waffles! The guesthouse is in a great spot, very close to the seafront and restaurants etc. Thank you so much, we hope to return in the future…
