“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the cottage, found it very comfortable, warm and spacious for three adults.”

The house is well cared for and strikes a nice balance combining traditional features and modern conveniences. The facilities were particularly good - especially in the kitchen and lounge and as present circumstances meant we catered for ourselves most of the time, this was important. ...

The house is well cared for and strikes a nice balance combining traditional features and modern conveniences. The facilities were particularly good - especially in the kitchen and lounge and as present circumstances meant we catered for ourselves most of the time, this was important. The property is in a good position for getting about and parking wasn't difficult despite the road being a busy one. This was the only down point as being on a hill the traffic noise was something we hadn't expected. However, the double glazing ensured minimal disturbance. One criticism: although there is a Recycle Centre a short distance away, there seems to be no provision made at the property to ensure guests are able to recycle waste properly. This could be easily rectified.

“This lovely house is in a great location near Easton Square and shops.”

We loved the facilities and really enjoyed the garden space.The house was immaculate and we hope to return there next summer if it is available.

“Loved Charlton house and all credit to the owner and cleaning team who presented the property to such a high standard.”

Everything you could possibly want when away from home. The kitchen was furnished with fridge/freezer, dishwasher and an absolutely fantastic oven. A very spacious 3 bedroom property with comfortable beds and two lovely decking areas outside. Perfect to catch the sunshine in a sheltered location. Trying to find parking directly outside was a slight pain at times but not something that would put me off in the future. A great location for exploring Dorset and the Isle of Portland itself with more than adequate shops, pubs and a lovely fish and chip shop just around the corner. Perhaps the local information in the pack could be updated to reflect more of the local amenities rather than pointing to Weymouth as a first port of call for restaurants/pubs/supermarkets/shops etc. The only issue I would have would be that initially I had booked a dog for the week.... I cancelled about 2 weeks prior to arrival however the additional cost was not returned despite asking. I can only guess that is a reflection on Sykes and not the owners. Would I book the same property ? Yes I would without doubt though I would probably go via a different agent given the non refund policy regarding the dog cancellation.

“Lovely cottage and quiet garden with sunny sitting/dining area and enjoyed sitting in egg chair with my book chillaxing.”

It has great access for walks, local shops and a couple of pubs. Would definitely stay in that cottage and area again. Cottage had everything we wanted and was very clean and fresh. The coastline is ideal for walking to Portland Bill and the old quarries are definitely worth a walk around. We both loved the area and Molly our spaniel was very happy

“The house was lovely, spotlessly clean & the location was fabulous.”

We loved exploring the quarries & the town had everything we needed. Only slight disappointment was the dining table was small and only really seated 4- a shame given the house sleeps six.

“Charlton House is a wonderful place to stay.”

The house itself was amazing. Spotlessly clean and really comfortable. It is in a good location, walking distance from the shops and only a short drive to Portland Bill. We love visiting Portland and we hope to stay at Charlton House again soon.

“Unfortunately the house wasn't cleaned properly between guests.”

The downstairs toilet was covered in urine ( I had to clean it) the little bin in there also had not been emptied and was full from the previous guests visit. The bathroom had a dirty tea cup on the window sill, with spillage stains. The back bedrooms bin also wasn't emptied since the last guests departure. The front bedroom has a glass in the wardrobe and I also felt that the mattress protector needed renewing as this was also covered in stains. I reported this to Dream cottages, as I had cleaned the loo there was no need for our holiday to be interrupted by getting the house cleaned again. However I do feel its important to let you know that the standard of the clean was very poor, and extremely disappointing.

- Mrs Gent, December 2019

Thank you for your valuable feedback and please accept our sincere apologies that the cleaning was not up to our normal high standards. We thank you for making us aware of the issues on your arrival but we would have been keen to arrange a revisit immediately, to rectify the situation Owner relations

Good location, close to shops and a frequent bus service runs right by the house.
