Lilac Cottage
Isle of Portland - Dorset UK

 

LILAC COTTAGE is a delightful Victorian terraced cottage with modern amenities but retaining many of its original features. The English Tourism Council rates the cottage three stars but that tells you little about the charm and warm atmosphere that our guests return to year after year.



The cottage, situated in historic Wakeham, sleeps four in two bedrooms and enjoys full central heating, making breaks on Portland a truly enjoyable experience at any time of year.

A variety of shops and several pubs in Easton are only an easy 10 minute walk away, while the Mermaid Inn is just 100 metres down the road.

A few minutes further on and you're at the top of the steps ready to descend to Church Ope Cove - one of the cleanest bathing beaches in the UK.
