Morven House is a family run nine bedroom guesthouse
superbly situated just 150 yards from the sea near the beautiful
Greenhill Gardens.
Morven House was built in the 1860's by George Crickmay
with whom the novelist Thomas Hardy trained as an architect while
he lived locally at 3 Wooperton Street. It remained a private residence
owned by the Earl of Wilton until 1920 when it was sold to the then
occupant Maria Robinson for 140 pounds. After a period when it was
owned by Mr Horton, a surgeon at Weymouth Hospital, it became a
hotel in 1945.
For sixty years The Morven House has been a perfect base
for enjoying a traditional English Seaside Holiday on a bed and breakfast basis and for exploring
Dorset. Within easy walking distance are: The Lodmoor and Radipole
RSPB Reserves, The Southwest Coastal Footpath, Weymouth Sealife
Centre, Preston Beach, The Esplanade, Old Harbour and The Nothe
Fort.
It's under ten miles to the Portland Bird Observatory,
Portland Bill Lighthouse, Chesil Beach, Abbotsbury, Dorchester &
Poundbury and within forty minutes' drive are the chocolate box
cottages of Lulworth Cove, Briantspuddle, Litton Cheney, Little
Bredy and Milton Abbas
From the ancient earthworks of Maiden Castle and Maumbury
Rings to the spectacular ruins of Corfe Castle and the deserted
village of Tyneham, Dorset's history will fascinate.
Morven House has ample free parking for all our guests
with constant, unhindered access to our off road parking.
The Morven House is a totally non-smoking guest house with solar powered central heating and hot water in recently refurbished en-suite bathrooms. We offer en suite B&B accommodation to visitors to Weymouth and Portland.
