After enjoying the rides your kids will still be talking about it even when you are back in your holiday cottage.
Nothe Fort

The fort was constructed between 1860 and 1872. Nothe Fort sits at the entrance of Weymouth Harbour and provides a beautiful view of the surrounding area including the Jurassic Coast. The fort has three levels and a maze of underground passages. There are several interesting displays at the fort. You can even watch some programs on the history of this amazing fort at the cinema areas at the fort. You will also be able to see several massive guns on display at the fort. The Nothe Fort is one of the biggest attractions in Dorset. You can organise a day-trip to the fort is you are staying with your family in one of the holiday cottages. Weymouth Beach
If you have chosen one of the Dorset holiday cottages near the beach, chances are that you are planning to enjoy a couple of days of sun and surf. One of the beaches that are worth visiting is the Weymouth Beach located in the town of Weymouth, Dorset. This beach is one of the most popular beaches in the area and it also has a history. This was the beach that King George III frequented when he was ill. He also named Weymouth as his "first resort" beach. He was also the one who was responsible for making bathing fashionable at the beach. The Weymouth beach is one of the most "sun-bathing" beaches. The natural wide and gently sloping beach with shallow waters is a natural "crowd-puller". If you are driving down from your holiday cottage, parking is available at the beach, parking is also free. The beach also has a cafe/restaurant where you can enjoy some drinks and snacks.
