A warm welcome, great location (near the harbour and the center), and it is a really nice place
Lovely family-run hotel- small but cozy rooms, beautifully decorated, perfectly clean bathroom, and super friendly host!
Great location, good sized room with everything you could want. Tracie was very friendly and sorted us out a parking permit on arrival so we were able to park outside. We also appreciated being able to leave luggage for the day while we hiked.
Lovely owners Friendly Great location
The room was clean, beautifully presented and the owners were super friendly and helpful.
Perfect location and great hosts, really helpful when planning what to do on our short break. Lots of little touches to make sure you have everything you could ever need :)
We loved everything! The location is great, the room is lovely and everything is very clean and cozy. Ian and Tracie are wonderful hosts!
What an amazing find! I can honestly say that I cannot fault a single thing about The Wadham Guest House. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left, Ian and Tracie made me feel incredibly welcome, they truly go above and beyond to make your stay special. The guest house itself is absolutely beautiful, with so much care and attention put into every detail. The thoughtful little touches both in the room and outside didn’t go unnoticed, it’s clear how much love and pride Ian and Tracie put into what they do. Everything was spotless, cosy, and perfectly presented, and the atmosphere was so warm and relaxing. I felt genuinely cared for, which made all the difference. I will 100% be back and can’t recommend The Wadham highly enough to anyone visiting Weymouth. Thank you, Ian and Tracie, for such a wonderful stay!
The Wadham is absolutely beautiful throughout! The decor is stunning but gives you a home from home feeling at the same time. Our room did not disappoint. It was very clean and bright and had everything we could possibly need during our stay, including hair straighteners, which was an added bonus as we didn't bring ours with us! My daughter loved the cats, Teddy, and Charlie, who often greeted us during our stay and were really friendly. Ian and Tracie were fantastic hosts and such a lovely couple, nothing was too much trouble, they even allowed us to leave our belongings at the guest house after we checked out, so we could go off and enjoy our last few hours in Weymouth before travelling back home. We would definitely visit again and recommend The Wadham to family and friends
Very welcoming and helpful hosts. Told us of an interesting walk and nice breakfast cafe on the harbour. Also went out of their way to look for a ring which I had mislaid in the room.
The room we were given was very nice and the amenities were excellent. Breakfast was very good and they would cater for your needs. We will be going back.
Amazing hosts! Super nice, and amazing location, on the harbour.

Our 2nd visit to Weymouth. We were warmly received by Tracie & Ian. Thought we might find it difficult to find parking, but Ian was very generous to guide us to find a space. The room was clean and had everything we needed. There's also plenty of tea/coffee replenish available. The accommodation is only a couple of minutes away from the harbour where you can find various places to eat & drink. Less than 10 minutes walk to the beach. Both Tracie and Ian are friendly & helpful. I would highly recommend 👌
Location is excellent. Accommodation is very comfortable. Staff were super helpful and friendly.
