Mr Crawshaw
August 2020

“Thoroughly enjoyed our week in Portland.”

...

The secure garage was essential as getting further parking close by was almost impossible (August 2020). The views from the house are excellent. To make the Sykes summary clearer it is worth pointing out: - enter street level, utility room (looks like a garage but it isn't) is on this level. Your secure garage is on the right of the entrance front door. - go up stairs and you have the kitchen/diner and then bedrooms on this level. There is a balcony at this level (Picture 19/27 - lower balcony) but no views. - go up stairs and you have the lounge with a second balcony (Picture 18/27 and Picture 1/27) - perfect to view over the sea wall which is in front of you - fantastic views. No other property has this view. It was great to sit on the balcony and watch people walk by on the promenade. (the summary only refers to one balcony but there are two). Perfect for evening walks, some great places to eat close by. Good wifi (15mbs) - stable and consistent. Very pleased we were able to stay and clearly, based upon the guest book, a lot of people book each year.

“Really well appointed cottage.”

Working Wi-Fi and all essentials. Very close to welcoming pub and excellent local Chinese and Indian take away. Excellent cafe within walking distance. Secure parking. Good walking and beach very close by. Some excellent local attractions including D Day museum (highly recommended) and Bovington Tank Museum under an hour away. Very pleased with the cottage and would visit again.

The property is clean, comfortable and well furnished.

“I found the booking process through your website straightforward and efficient.”

The immediate confirmation email was reassuring as we had less than a week til the start of our holiday. I liked your information folder inside the property with detailed and helpful listings of local places. The property was a stunning holiday home: beautifully furnished and decorated, well equipped, impeccably clean and spacious for a family of five. The situation next to the beach, with views from the balconies out to sea was wonderful. The apartment was in a convenient location with a nearby pub, local shops at Fortuneswell and a friendly hairdressers next door. We will definitely book with you again. Stayed April 2017

Mrs Geraldine Miles-Reed

“We loved Sunset Lodge - quiet, charming, comfortable and convenient.”

Sitting in the lounge we could see the hills of Portland on one side and the waves on the other - so relaxing. If I had one criticism to make (and I would be hard-pushed to find any fault with this property) I felt it could do with a decent reading lamp. I would highly recommend this property.Stayed July 2015
