The attic room is perfect to lay on the bed and listen to the waves below in Chesil Cove. This is also a tranquil place to relax or look out to sea, seen from the back bedrooms windows. There is a fabulous beach pub/restaurant a very short walk away that has good food and a perfect place to watch the sun set.

For sailing enthusiasts the National Sailing Academy is a stroll down the hill and here you will find sailing/surfing schools which frequent the safe waters of Portland harbour. Beach/harbourside cafe's abound on Portland and Weymouth, where you can enjoy a drink or lunch whilst looking out across the waters from Chesil Cove, Portland Marina or the Fleet Lagoon. Weymouth harbour is beautiful all year round and retains its old fashioned charm with picturesque painted houses, cobbled streets and fishing boats moored in the harbour. Plenty of cafe’s restaurants here too. There are numerous festivals going on all year, notably the seafood festival in July which attracts celebrity Chef's and the Carnival in August. Not forgetting how famous Weymouth is for its fancy dress at New Year!
