NO 10

About this property

NO 10 is a modest yet appealing house set in Fortuneswell, Dorset, ideally placed close to the beach, with free public parking nearby and an enclosed courtyard providing a private outdoor space. Step inside to discover a traditional layout that lends itself well to couples, pairs of friends, or small groups seeking a simple base by the coast. The sitting room welcomes you first, where an electric fire lends a warm glow as you settle in after exploring the shoreline. Continue through to the dining room, where you can linger over meals together, before moving into the kitchen to prepare breakfast spreads or light suppers using familiar appliances.

The ground-floor bathroom offers a bath with a shower over, ideal for rinsing off sandy feet after a day at Chesil Beach, only 0.2 miles away. Upstairs, the two bedrooms, a double and a twin, provide restful spaces to recharge between adventures. With central heating throughout, the house remains inviting in all seasons, and one well-behaved pet is welcome to join the experience. Beyond the front door, Fortuneswell offers convenience wrapped in character, with a pub just 0.1 miles away and shops for everyday essentials less than a mile from the house. Explore Portland, where the dramatic Portland Bill Lighthouse, Tout Quarry Sculpture Park, and Church Ope Cove await.

Visit Weymouth for its sandy beach, Nothe Fort, and bustling harbour lined with cafés and traditional ice-cream shops. Alternatively, head to Abbotsbury to wander through Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens, meet the famous swans at the Swannery, and take in superb coastal scenery along the South West Coast Path. For an uncomplicated stay close to the sea, NO 10 offers a well-placed base for discovering this distinctive stretch of coastline.

Situated on Dorset's spectacular Jurassic Coast, now a World Heritage Site, the village of Fortuneswell can be found on the rugged Isle of Portland peninsula, joined to the mainland via Chesil Beach, a pebble spit, which stretches 18 miles towards West Bay. Formerly a quarrying area, Fortuneswell boasts a good variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, along with an intriguing maze of streets that wind their way up a steep hill to offer stunning views of the Jurassic Coast and the rolling hills of Dorset beyond. The surrounding countryside is well known as a birdwatcher’s paradise, plus with great walking and climbing opportunities, an array of watersport activities, wonderful sandy beaches, and Weymouth just 5 miles away, this super holiday destination is not to be missed!
