The location was amazing! Derrick was a wonderful host. And his granddaughter welcomed us with the most amazing and beautiful cupcakes on arrival. Derrick gave all the best recommendations on what to see, where to eat, and history of the hotel itself.

I was born in Portland and the purpose of the visit was to see family so I am very familiar with the island but there are some beautiful places of interest in and around the island. Even if you do not wish to drive there is a very good public service and also trains

Portland was easy to get to on the bus (No 1) from the train station. There is a stop just over the road but not clearly marked, you can pick up the bus from the Kings Head Statue as well ( walk down to the seafront , turn right and it’s the last bus stop).
Portland was interesting with different scenery for our walk, which included Portland Bill and old quarries. Our visit was Monday / Tuesday evening and we had no car. I would suggest booking a restaurant/ pub if you want to eat on Portland. The Cove House Inn ( closed Monday ) and the Little Ship ( closed Tuesday) are good options. We took the bus to Weymouth Harbour ( get off at the Magistrates Court stop), there are lots of eating places and nice for a walk round.

unusual place with a mixture of terrain . The beach is quite something on a sunny day and well worth a visit along with the Portland Bill lighthouse where we were lucky enough to see a Seal . I would certainly recommend a visit which also has the benefit of Weymouth a 10-15 minute drive away. Local People we spoke to seemed genuinely funny and helpful.

Even though it has quite limited options of where to eat in the island, for climbers it is a lovely place to go. A lot of the beaches I know from there are pebbled one so bring suitable footwear so your feet do not hurt. This is the second time (always in Sep) I come to this part of Dorset, I discover something knew evert time.

We visited Portland to go on a Sailing trip on Moonfleet.
We visited Portland to go on a Sailing trip on Moonfleet. Great experience and a fun day.
Restaurants were limited in the area. Salt is near the harbour but card only and expensive. The Cove Inn is beautiful, gorgeous setting to watch the sunset.
A trip to Portland Bill is a must whilst visiting, stunning views.
There are places of interest in Castletown with the D-Day museum and Castle just around the corner.
We had a great week at Unicorn cottage in Portland and would definitely choose to stay here again. The house was great - really cosy, clean and welcoming. The little touches were much appreciated; coffee, tea, biscuits, sparkling drink, dishwasher tabs, washing powder, toilet roll, the list goes on!
The house was in a good situation, only a few minutes walk to the beach. The parking tight but perfectly doable. All in all a great stay and would heartily recommend to anyone wanting to explore Portland and the surrounding areas more.
The room was very clean and we had excellent view from the room. We could see the harbor and sea from 2 sides of the room. The room size was reasonably good size. The breakfast was very good and we all enjoyed. Number of parking was limited, so we had to park on the road just next to the Hotel. There was a paid parking on back of the hotel which was reasonable price and free from 6pm-8am. The location was very close to the Chesil Beach and Portland Castle.
Brackenbury House is a lovely, charming manor just at the upper edge of Castletown, roughly 10 minutes walk from the beach where all the restaurants are.
The owners are absolutely lovely and helped us with recommendations throughout our stay. Even if we barely met them in the house, they were available 24/7 and had the best possible tips for us.
We'd return anytime, to Brackenbury House and to the Isle of Portland, which is an absolute hidden gem.
Great location as about 5 minute walk from the beach and you get some awesome views of the sunset from the main bedroom.
Really nice cottage with everything we needed for a long weekend and suitable for kids. Met the owner and he was very nice. Well looked after property and a great location for getting to see the rest of portland and surrounding areas. Would recommend
House was VERY CLEAN, spacious and very well equipped. Regarding the property and quality we wanted for nothing in that respect. View from the attic bedroom magnificent, bathroom & shower had lots of space and even an extra toilet room on the same floor was very handy. Kitchen modern & had everything you needed for a week or mores stay.
My partner came with me to make deliveries in and around Poole and Devon. As it was holiday season finding somewhere to stop was proving hard but we found this gem! Although it is near the Quarry there was a coastal walk and beach to walk along. Staff were more than helpful and very friendly, thank you.
First class all new facilities easy to park and so very close to wonderful cliff coastal path and of course the beautiful Portland Bill lighthouse. It was all so good and this was our second visit and stay - It is so much better than one would think when first viewing the Southwell complex.
View from the dining area was fantastic, watching the Sunset was even better. Room was very good, very clean, no problems at all. Breakfast was also very good, plenty to eat. Plenty of parking space. Staff were all very helpful.
The property was well-prepared and everything was clean when we arrived. The view for us was the plus point as you will be staying near the water with the view of the harbor and it is very peaceful especially in the morning.
Location was perfect, beautiful garden, comfortable feel with plenty of flexible sleeping accommodation, generally well-equipped and practical kitchen with a lovely aspect. Easy access to wonderful locations in Portland.
The whole experience was superb.The rooms were clean and spacious ,the staff was friendly and helpful.the breakfast in the morning was lush with amazing views over Weymouth.100% go back to heights hotel.
We like the decor of the property. very clean. spacious lounge and bed rooms. lovely office area with seaview (again it was not very safe for some guests to climb the stairs).
The location of the property- near to everything. The property was very spacious, clean and beds were comfortable. Beach was near, cafes and Lidl within walking distance.
The location was superb, loved the view over the sea and Portland Bill! Great access to walks and a nearby restaurant. The pub had a good selection of beers available.
Cute property near the high street with comfy accommodation. Large lounge/kitchen/diner with distant views over Chesil Beach, very well kept and well appointed.
