The cottage delights and the photos are representative on first arrival.. Lovely beamed living room with woodburner, well equipped kitchen etc. Stairs to top room are steep. (Very common in Portland cottages) We were a little disappointed in the cleanliness when we arrived. We could see that the cleaner had vacuumed and cleaned surfaces, made bed all fine, however it was obvious that a spring clean is well overdue. Lots of cobwebs, furniture had not been moved to clean so very dusty in these places. (eg behind TV), cobwebs on books on bookshelf, and a Christmas Tree left under the bed covered in dust. We had to clean the windows ourselves in order to be able to see out! On the plus side the cottage is warm (it was quite cold outside for the time of year) , beds are comfortable, TV good. There is no oven glove which is tricky using the oven. There is no mobile signal and no wifi available. (sometimes sporadic at front of house eg BT Broadband). The location is excellent for the Chesil Beach, Quiddles Cafe which is lovely , and the unique Cove House Inn. Both of these a short walk and Dog friendly. There is no sea view from the cottage, only the back of the sea defence wall. Parking can be a nightmare. Our group had two cars. We found that parking in the afternoon was usually OK, but come back in the evening and often very difficult to find any space near the cottage. Cottage well served by public transport, bus stop, regular services just metres away.

The current look of the outside of the building is nothing like the picture shown , it looks more tatty when you first see the cottage it is no longer painted white .. The lounge does need a bit of a face lift . I appreciate dogs are allowed and thats why we booked it but the rug in the lounge does need to be thrown out and also the cushions on the chairs/sofa could do with replacing. The kitchen and shower/bathroom and bedrooms are really nice all clean and fresh. The location is excellent , especially for the sea and of course the Cove Inn

The cottage was in a great location, however, it was in need of a good clean and maintenance.. The inside of the oven was very dirty, there was lots of dust everywhere, spider webs, dirt between the sofa cushions, paint coming away from the walls in places, and the stove didn't work properly. If you had the stove door closed, then it didn't give out any heat, so you had to leave the door open, which then meant that the logs burned extremely fast - which of course is expensive. The carpet upstairs is stained in places. A pint of milk would have been handy - most other places we've stayed at, they do have a few basics waiting for you to welcome you when you arrive. The icing on the cake was my parents arriving at the cottage after a day out to find the front door open and some random bloke in there checking the electrics. They are elderly and this was quite a shock for them. The electrician said he come in and thought there was no one there, so got on with his job. We are angry about this. We had booked the cottage for a week so would expect at the very least to be asked our permissions before you sent someone in. Any works should gave been completed when the cottage was empty.

Fantastic location and beautiful cottage, the kitchen was well equipped and a very good size.. The living room was rustic with a lovely fire, great after a long walk on chesil beach, which was right behind the cottage. The only problem with the cottage is parking, it was hit and miss whether there were spaces in the car park opposite, somtimes we had to park a considerable distance from the cottage.
