The location was amazing! Derrick was a wonderful host. And his granddaughter welcomed us with the most amazing and beautiful cupcakes on arrival. Derrick gave all the best recommendations on what to see, where to eat, and history of the hotel itself.

The hosts were wonderful people, the property was very tastefully down with every room portraying its own unique story. The check-in process was seamless and the location was bang in the middle of the city. Strongly recommend spending some time at their Paris library which will make you travel back time!

I was born in Portland and the purpose of the visit was to see family so I am very familiar with the island but there are some beautiful places of interest in and around the island. Even if you do not wish to drive there is a very good public service and also trains

Portland was easy to get to on the bus (No 1) from the train station. There is a stop just over the road but not clearly marked, you can pick up the bus from the Kings Head Statue as well ( walk down to the seafront , turn right and it’s the last bus stop).
Portland was interesting with different scenery for our walk, which included Portland Bill and old quarries. Our visit was Monday / Tuesday evening and we had no car. I would suggest booking a restaurant/ pub if you want to eat on Portland. The Cove House Inn ( closed Monday ) and the Little Ship ( closed Tuesday) are good options. We took the bus to Weymouth Harbour ( get off at the Magistrates Court stop), there are lots of eating places and nice for a walk round.

unusual place with a mixture of terrain . The beach is quite something on a sunny day and well worth a visit along with the Portland Bill lighthouse where we were lucky enough to see a Seal . I would certainly recommend a visit which also has the benefit of Weymouth a 10-15 minute drive away. Local People we spoke to seemed genuinely funny and helpful.

Even though it has quite limited options of where to eat in the island, for climbers it is a lovely place to go. A lot of the beaches I know from there are pebbled one so bring suitable footwear so your feet do not hurt. This is the second time (always in Sep) I come to this part of Dorset, I discover something knew evert time.

We visited Portland to go on a Sailing trip on Moonfleet.
We visited Portland to go on a Sailing trip on Moonfleet. Great experience and a fun day.
Restaurants were limited in the area. Salt is near the harbour but card only and expensive. The Cove Inn is beautiful, gorgeous setting to watch the sunset.
A trip to Portland Bill is a must whilst visiting, stunning views.
There are places of interest in Castletown with the D-Day museum and Castle just around the corner.

Scenic with lovely coastal views.
Scenic with lovely coastal views. If you like cliffs and walking or visiting lighthouses, it's great. We didn't get on to Chesil beach - couldnt quite work it out.
The cafe we found was really expensive!!
Our contact was Cat, she could not have been more helpful and friendly. She met us at the property, was the main contact and she cooked the daily breakfast to order. It was a perfect place to stay if you are walking around Portland. The bus stop ( to and from Weymouth) is nearby and the SW costal path easily accessible. There is a carpark nearby but we didn’t need it.
The room was very basic. Compared to Premier Inns, for the money it did not compare but I had an enjoyable stay and the staff were helpful and very pleasant. The bathroom was much better and seemed newly fitted. The position of the hotel was excellent. The cleanliness of the room and bathroom was exceptional. Nice soap and fluffy white towels.
First class all new facilities easy to park and so very close to wonderful cliff coastal path and of course the beautiful Portland Bill lighthouse. It was all so good and this was our second visit and stay - It is so much better than one would think when first viewing the Southwell complex.
We had a great time at Sally Hall. Spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Portland was really interesting. The highlights were Chesil beach and seeing the signets at Abbotsbury Swannery and the weather which was amazing. Check in was easy and communication was helpful and prompt.
A superb apartment. Everything I needed. An interesting converted ex MOD building with full view of the sea and Portland Bill. Dishwasher, Washing Machine. Coffee maker. Wide screen TV. Netflix. A home from home. The neighbours who live there all year round were really nice people.
Great location for exploring Portland. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. Breakfast hamper was excellent with warm pastries, cafetière of coffee, and much more. We really appreciated the many thoughtful gestures and handwritten messages from Stacey the host.
Mark & Jo was very polite and made me feel very welcome. The hotel was lovely. Breakfast was nice. Would love to stay on my future visits. Best property I have ever stayed in Weymouth/Portland in all the 15 years that I have been going.
The property was well-prepared and everything was clean when we arrived. The view for us was the plus point as you will be staying near the water with the view of the harbor and it is very peaceful especially in the morning.
Staff were friendly and helpful. Plenty parking spaces easy to find. Cooked breakfast was nice. We had both meals at the bistro which were excellent and made that part feel more like a 4-5 hotel.
The location was superb, loved the view over the sea and Portland Bill! Great access to walks and a nearby restaurant. The pub had a good selection of beers available.
