November 1, 2021 Christa Meece

Hit the beautiful beaches of Weymouth to soak up the surprisingly powerful U.K. sun—there are plenty of waterfront options to pick from. The quaint harbor of Weymouth bobs merrily with fishing boats, and, downtown, Hope Square and Brewers Quay bustle with shoppers and merrymakers.

We did the Park Farm ATV safari as a family in August and it was great. We were a family of 5 - 2 adults and 3 children (6,9 and 11). Gary was a perfect host and made us all feel very welcome and comfortable and involved everyone in the conversation on the way round the tour. His knowledge of the local area and the farmland was brilliant and he definitely made you think about the wonderful wildlife we have in this country. The kids loved it as well. We would like to come back and do one of the Landdrover trips when all in the world is back to normal and we are allowed again. Well done, great experience!

Nothe Fort

The outdoor areas of Nothe Fort are reopening to visitors every weekend until 17th May. On this date, the indoor areas will be reopened and the Fort shall be open 7 days a week from 11am till 4pm. This 19th century Fort includes a museum highlighting coastal defence. Built by the Victorians to protect Portland Harbour, Nothe Fort is one of the best preserved forts of its kind. The advances in technology that affected the fort are explained through many displays, exhibits and audio visual facilities located on the ramparts, gun decks and maze of underground passageways. Enjoy the stunning and far reaching views of the Jurassic Coast from the picnic areas on the Ramparts. These will provide one of the best vantage points on the south coast. Current annual passes have been extended by three months. Any new ticket now permits you entry for the rest of this year, and all of the next.

Nothe Fort can be seen from the beach in Weymouth and it is well worth a visit.The staff who were very knowledgeable and very helpful making time to speak directly to the 3 children we had with us.The mouse hunt captured their attention - a great way to keep the kids interesred, and the displays are well put together.we were lucky with the weather so the views were amazing.There is plenty of space to picnic outside the fort,grassy open space,but we had lunch at the cafe inside and it was voted out best lunch of the week!Anyone who has to please 3 very different children knows it isn't easy when it comes to food,but all 3 enjoyed it and so did the adults.We will definitely go again.

Abbotsbury Swannery

Reviewed By Lilacwheaty - Nottingham, United Kingdom

We arrived 30 minutes before the 12 noon feed time (they feed at 12.00 and 16,00) which was lucky, as gave us enough time for a quick read of intro info and a 400m walk down to the feeding area. Hundreds of Mute swans were ready for their first feed and they co-operate well, whilst keeping all the migrating Canada geese at bay. The Swanherd team appeared to love their jobs and giving us all information about the life of swan and the sites 500 year plus history. In Mya and June the cygnets appear, adding to the delight of a visit. There is lots of information and kids activities also, so plenty to do in-between feeding times Combining the tickets with other Abbotsbury estate attractions and the village itself makes for good value also, and a full day out

All this holiday in Weymouth I have walked round this wetland. I think it’s fantastic our dog likes her walks there too. The bird spotting and wild life there are just great. It is well maintained and clean. There are benches to sit on. Sheltered spots to watch the birds from. Got to worth a visit if you are in the area.
