    “Overall a lovely cottage, had almost everything we needed.”

    Positives: great location, clean and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen and lots of hot water. Beds were ok, blackout blinds in bedrooms and plenty of towels provided. Negatives: internet is shockingly bad! Nasty smell of ammonia in the lower kitchen cupboards. Reported but no source found. Minor points: a bottle of toilet cleaner would have been useful just to give the loo a scrub. 1 toilet roll for a weeks rental seems very cheap. Please Note: Parking can be a nightmare, so be ...

    We are so glad you enjoyed our cottage and the local area. We love to visit, and often spend time in our cottage. We find there are nearly always parking spaces in Queens Road, or otherwise on Chiswell, both of which are 1 or 2 minutes walk from the cottage. Drive down Clements Lane and stop outside the cottage to drop off guests or luggage. The internet works OK, but, when there are glitches, switching off and on again at the router does the trick.

About the location

FORTUNESWELL

Weymouth 5 miles.

Situated on Dorset's spectacular Jurassic Coast, now a World Heritage Site, the village of Fortuneswell can be found on the rugged Isle of Portland peninsula, joined to the mainland via Chesil Beach, a pebble spit, which stretches 18 miles towards West Bay. Formerly a quarrying area, Fortuneswell boasts a good variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, along with an intriguing maze of streets that wind their way up a steep hill to offer stunning views of the Jurassic Coast and the rolling hills of Dorset beyond. The surrounding countryside is well known as a birdwatcher’s paradise, plus with great walking and climbing opportunities, an array of watersport activities, wonderful sandy beaches, and Weymouth just 5 miles away, this super holiday destination is not to be missed!

Note: Sorry no pets.
Note: Due to the unique location of Ammonite Cottage on the Isle of Portland, it is accessed via a pedestrian walkway with vehicle access for drop off and pickup.
Note: Two council car parks with free 72 hour parking and parking on adjacent roads.
