Sea Pinks

Brilliant facilities, wonderful site close to good amenities only downside was steep stairs and road outside and distance of parking because of 87 year old mother. We really enjoyed the property and having been part of a storm going through Portland only

Sea Pinks Cottage

We visited for a long weekend, two families each with an older teen. The cottage was wonderful with all its quirkiness including the amazing staircase. A true fisherman's cottage. The bedrooms were lovely and everyone agreed the beds were comfortable and we all slept well (which is unusual for two of us). Plenty of towels provided in the bathroom sufficient for everyone. Well equipped kitchen which we used for our cooked breakfasts. Small but sunny garden was put to good use.All in all a great location for walking and pub visits. Thank you!

Cosy cottage in good location

We stayed in Sea Pinks for 3 nights in a very wet and windy November! Despite the weather we had a lovely time - the idea was to relax and we could quite comfortably in this quirky cottage. It has a great location close to the sea front (you can hear the sea in the house!) and close to local shops and pub. We ate at the local Balti Indian one night, which we really enjoyed (very convenient just 2 min walk away), and also spent a great night at the local pub, the Cove House Inn. It's a proper old pub, basic pub grub, right by the sea. We went on a Thursday night when they have regular folk bands playing - it was brilliant to be in there listening to great music whilst outside was blowing a gale! The property itself is quite old with many quirky features, and it has been kitted out very nicely. I am 5 months pregnant and probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone much further along in pregnancy as it has a very steep, narrow stairway...my poor husband was terrified I'd slip and fall but I was fine. I was aware of this when I booked however, and liked the novelty of it! The bathroom is huge, and has a great shower. It was easy to warm the place up too, and the gas fire in the lounge was a bonus. The kitchen is small, but adequate. The dining area is great and would suit a larger group. There is also a garden...we didn't venture out there due to the weather but I imagine it would be great in summer and you can see the Olympic Rings up on the hill by the quarry. In all, it was just what we wanted.

Girls Weekend

Ideal accommodation for weekend away with the girls, bedrooms,bathroom & dining room a good size, kitchen a bit tight with more than one adult at a time, seating in living room very tight for 6 adults. Everything you need for a . Holiday provided. Good for family with children as small enclosed garden and a short walk to the beach just a steep walk back to cottage. Lots to do and see, a climb up the lighthouse a must and a lunch at the restaurant recommended. A visit to the museum is well worth it and good to do if weather not so good. Lots of places to walk and some fantastic views.

Sea Pinks Cottage in Portland

Just arrived back home from a refreshing holiday in Portland. The property was clean with room enough for 4 adults and a 20 month baby although it isn't really suitable for little children but a baby bed and highchair were put in without problem and it must be said the proprietors were excellent when we had a query. The situation of the cottage, on a very steep and narrow road may not appeal to all but we had fun. I can recommend the cottage.
