Osprey House Portland
Description
Located on the Officer’s Field, a beautiful residential development which originally housed 2012 Olympic sailing event’s international team, Osprey House is situated on the edge of the Isle of Portland on the World Heritage coast in Dorset.
With a generous open plan layout, Osprey House is perfect for guests to enjoy cooking, eating and relaxing together. In the summer you can open the patio doors and enjoy the enclosed patio and lawned garden, in the winter cosy up and chat in the bright spacious and light lounge on the first floor which has large windows overlooking the Chesil bank in the distance. On the second floor you will find the master bedroom with its touch of luxury with a patio terrace and an en-suite shower room.
The secluded and clear waters of Chesil Cove, ideal for snorkelling, scuba diving, rock pools, fishing or sunbathing are just minutes away, Other favoured local pursuits on and around Portland include rambling (the flora and fauna are a nature lover's delight), sailing, scuba diving, fishing climbing, windsurfing and bird watching. Portland is popular with birders and twitchers alike for observing rare migrating birds.
Just minutes away by car is the main seaside town of Weymouth where you will find Weymouth's famous award-winning sandy beach and the charm of the Georgian seafront amongst other family attractions including the Sealife Centre, parks and cinema. If you prefer to leave the car at home, there is a frequent local bus service with bus stop being close to the property.
Osprey House Portland is an ideal choice for guests who are seeking a generous and luxurious holiday home near beaches and amenities.

What guests are saying
Osprey house was a fantastic place for our multi-generation family holiday and we were very comfortable.
The internal condition of the property was very clean and well maintained and the beds were comfortable. The shower in the main bathroom is deliciously powerful which was a welcome luxury, it's a shame the experience is spoiled by the cheapest and flimsiest kind of shower curtain, and the towels provided are too small for people of above-average size so take your own if you aren't skinny. The property would benefit from better external cleaning, it was difficult to enjoy the splendid views as the windows were so grubby, but this did not spoil the overall positive experience and watching the sunset from the upstairs balcony is amazing. I would advise future holidaymakers to note the presence of the nearby Heliport which might distress some (but excite others!). The garden is perfect for enjoying the fresh air when the weather is far too hot, as the buildings provide welcome shade most of the time except in the middle of the day, and the house makes an excellent base for exploring the many things to see and do in the area.
Fantastic property.
It was very clean on arrival; it was well stocked and it was a great location for everything we wanted to see between Lyme Regis and the Durdle Door. We had a very comfortable stay. Not for publishing: To the owner: We tried to take the bicycles out, but all the tyres were flat and we couldn't find a pump. That was our only complaint and at that it was minimal because everything else was fantastic and perfect. Thank you.
This was our 3rd visit to Osprey House We do love our stay here & are never disappointed.
We did have a minor blip with the Tv but it was sorted quickly and didn't affect our holiday. It is a beautiful property with absolutely everything you need. Already booked for next year. Thank you Osprey House!
