Talisman

This property is gorgeous, it suited us perfectly. It's beautifully presented with lots of towels, shampoo etc provided, warm and cosy, comfy beds. Right on the road but very little traffic. We'd love to return and spend more time in the area - this property is a great base. Highly recommended.

Amazing property

We loved Portland! And we loved this gorgeous property. Spotlessly clean and so well appointed with everything you could need. Hard to pull the blinds down in the evening as the view from the living room was amazing. We have been using Stayz for years to book holidays and this is the best property we have ever found. Outstanding!

Just Wow

We had the pleasure of staying at Talisman for two nights, from the moment we walked into this beautiful home, we wished we'd booked for a week at least!! The views are stunning and that's just the beginning! This accommodation is so welcoming and has everything you could possibly need, well equipped kitchen, comfy bed, even Tim Tams for an arrival treat, to accompany a tea and coffee, also supplied, thank you so much Bernadette, for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful piece of heaven!

Sea views

Exactly as the pics show. Beautiful decor, well equipped kitchenette. Exceptional cleanliness. view of the Sea from most angles. Lovely outside Deck, quiet area. A small Fan in Bedroom would be good, although you get a breeze with door open, the blinds make a noise.

Gorgeous peaceful location

Beautiful comfortable house. We had a cosy week at Talisman in July, loved waking up to a glorious view. Did lots of day walks on the Great South West Walk, the book Short walks of the GSWW we found very useful – available from the tourist office. The TV and the stove were a bit challenging to work without instructions (disappeared on the stove). Found great coffee, seafood and bread in town. Portland is a fascinating place to visit, we especially enjoyed the many historical buildings and friendly people.

everything shown and stated as advertised - fantastic

This is first time I have been to a property where the photos and supporting information were as advertised. It is beautifully appointed and so clean. Any minor issues were based on personal preference (e.g. we prefer gas to electric and would have been good to have a pot big enough to cook pasta in). The owner of the property provided excellent communication, instructions and responses were prompt. We are looking forward to staying there again.

2nd time stay - 2nd time happy

This is second time we have stayed here. We spent double the time. Weather was not the best but staying indoors more than we were planning was not a problem at all -it is a lovely property and has un-interupted views of the ocean. We also noticed that a couple of items had been updated; just another note that the owner ensures everything is in best condition. Thanks Bernadette.
