The Blue Cottage in Portland, Dorset, is praised for its stunning sea views, cleanliness, and spaciousness. Guests appreciate the well-furnished rooms, comfortable beds, and thoughtful touches like games and books. The property's multi-level layout offers a balcony for enjoying sunsets, though it may not suit those with mobility issues or young children due to stairs.
Reviews consistently mention that the property is very clean, with only one mention of an issue with the oven that was resolved by the guest. The high level of cleanliness contributes positively to the guests' experiences.
The property boasts amazing sea views and is well-positioned for coastal walks and visiting nearby towns. The convenience of a nearby bus stop is noted, although the one-way access road can be busy. The location's appeal is slightly tempered by parking limitations.
Guests find the beds super comfy and the living spaces spacious. However, concerns about suitability for families with young children and those with mobility issues due to the stairs are noted, slightly affecting the comfort score.
The property is well-stocked with kitchen utensils and entertainment options like board games and Netflix. However, there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as problems with the oven, shower heads needing descaling, and the need for clearer instructions for appliances, which affects the score.

Well-positioned within the bustling village of Fortuneswell, just a stone's throw away from the Dorset coastline is 65 Fortuneswell, a fabulous three-storey property. Enjoying extensive sea views and a prime location near the beach, a host of amenities and attractions, whilst a short journey from Weymouth, the property welcomes six guests, ideal for a family seascape. Park up to the front before heading indoors, firstly reaching the well-equipped kitchen, where you can prepare delicious meals for all. Travel up to the first floor to enjoy your meals, with far-reaching, panoramic vistas across the shoreline, before relaxing in front of the TV with a good book. Take advantage of your elevated position by locating the private decked area, resting upon the second floor, perfect for sunbathing and alfresco dining through the warmer months. As the night unfolds, select between three well-presented king-size bedrooms, one of which is set on the second floor next to the bathroom, whilst a ground-floor shower room offers additional convenience. Awaken to an itinerary brimming with adventure, starting locally by grabbing a bite to eat at The Flat Café, stocking up on the essentials at the nearby convenience store, or taking a stroll towards Chiswell beach. Within proximity you'll also arrive at Portland Alpacas, ideal for all the family, and Weymouth & Portland National Sailing Academy, showcasing a range of events and offering on-site training. Travelling towards Dorset AONB, stop off at Sandsfoot Beach, also possible to view from Sandsfoot Castle, before continuing towards Weymouth. Peppered with sandy shorelines, popular eateries, and a host of activities, reach the town and enjoy a stroll around SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth, discover Sandworld, book tickets for one of the many shows displayed at the Weymouth Pavilion, or simply watch the world tick by at Weymouth Harbour and Marina. Escape to Dorset with 65 Fortuneswell as your base.
The community of Fortuneswell is located on the Isle of Portland peninsula, connected to the mainland by Chesil Beach, a pebble spit that spans 18 miles towards West Bay, on Dorset's beautiful Jurassic Coast, now a World Heritage Site. Formerly a quarrying region, Fortuneswell now offers a fair selection of shops, bars, and restaurants in addition to a fascinating maze of lanes that wound their way up a high hill to provide breath-taking views of the Jurassic Coast and the surrounding Dorset undulating hills. This fantastic vacation spot is not to be missed because of the surrounding countryside's well-known reputation as a birdwatcher's paradise, as well as the fantastic walking and climbing opportunities, the variety of watersports available, the wonderful sandy beaches, and Weymouth's close proximity.
