Set in Portland and only 700 metres from Chesil Beach, Brackenbury House offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. This recently renovated homestay is located 2.9 km from Chesil Beach and 33 km from Monkey World. The property offers allergy-free units and is located 40 km from Golden Cap.

Brackenbury House is a lovely, charming manor just at the upper edge of Castletown, roughly 10 minutes walk from the beach where all the restaurants are. The owners are absolutely lovely and helped us with recommendations throughout our stay. Even if we barely met them in the house, they were available 24/7 and had the best possible tips for us. We'd return anytime, to Brackenbury House and to the Isle of Portland, which is an absolute hidden gem.
