Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Isle of Portland

The accommodation was superb, very clean and room for 4 cars. A few minutes walk to the beach, town and restaurants. Loved the touches of flowers, milk in the fridge and melt in the mouth cake.

Absolutely stunning! Beautiful cottage in a perfect location. Everything we needed for a great weekend away. Would definitely recommend staying here and looking forward to returning.

excellent host, lovely place to stay in will recommend

Organised a stag do here for 13 of us, everyone loved it. The House was great, had everything we needed, so we didn’t have to leave the site for activities. We were lucky with the weather so basically stayed by the pool and jacuzzi all weekend and enjoyed the great views the property had to offer. Paul was a great host who was very helpful and was there to answer any questions straight away. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

The house was a perfect location for us as a family. We regularly visit Swanage and this is now the closest to town we have stayed. You would not think in less than 5 minutes you would be in town due to how quiet it was. House was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Plenty of space for a family of 5. If we needed Anne we knew we could have messaged. We managed to find parking not far from the house so this was also no issue for us. Will look again at staying here as we can not fault it at all. 5*

I’ve just returned from a stay here with my family, and we had a wonderful time. There were 12 of us including 3 kids aged 7yrs and under, and 2 dogs! So I was glad there was plenty of space. The house is beautiful and set in quiet surroundings. The games kept the kids entertained and they loved the Moors Valley country Park that was only 5 mins drive away. I would definitely recommend. The house is even nicer than in the photos.

We stayed at Danni's for a local wedding, it was perfect. Loads of space and well equipped, had everything we needed for a great weekend!

The house was very clean and well cared for with good quality appliances and there was always plenty of hot water. The beds were extremely comfortable, and thank you for moving the desk down from the upstairs bedroom to a bedroom downstairs to allow our disabled son to have it in his bedroom to give him his privacy away from the main area. The garden was beautiful and very peaceful and it was a lovely place to relax in; the views from the property are wonderful. Our only slight surprise was there wasn't a teapot in the kitchen, and a smaller saucepan for boiling eggs or similar would have been useful but other than that the kitchen was extremely well equipped. It's only a 15 minute walk to the town but obviously Lyme is hilly so you can't avoid the hills which ever way you go. We had a wonderful holiday which worked very well with 5 adults, 2 of whom sadly had to 'work from home' on a couple of days' and are already planning to return next May.

We had a fantastic stay at Nicholas’ place. The property was located in a quiet area, within walking distance to beaches, the ferry and local cafes and restaurants. The property itself was spotless, and had lots of space (we were a family of 4). Check in was straightforward and we really appreciated the treats that Nicholas left on arrival. We wouldn’t hesitate to book here again. Thank you!

David and Pamela were very welcoming, friendly and accommodating. We stayed for 1 night and all went as well as the description stated. Thank you for your hospitality and would recommend staying at their apartment. Easy parking and close to town and amenities.

Alan and I had a fantastic stay this week at the Annexe. Carol and Derek were so friendly and helpful and were so welcoming; they couldn’t do enough to make our stay perfect. We felt at home straight away in a perfect space for us and our 2 small dogs. We had a relaxing and peaceful few days which was just what we needed and even had a magical experience where the cows and sheep in the field came right up to the fence to say hello one evening which made the perfect photos for our memories. We totally recommend this location if you are looking for a peaceful break. The annexe was spotlessly clean and had everything needed for the perfect stay with lots of extra items which really did make the difference such as: dog blankets, towels, bowls and treats. Bathroom towels, cleaning products and loo roll. Tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits and milk and of course those yummy fresh eggs. Carol and Derek thank you so much for an amazing stay- we will definitely be back. 😊

Yet another great stay at this gorgeous little home from home Airbnb. Many thanks to the amazing Graham & Linda. Whom this time were even more accommodating by helping me out above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you!

What a lovely flat, clean and provided everything we needed and extremely comfortable. Great location, beach and town within easy reach. Thankyou Clare for providing excellent weather😀

Lovely property it had all the amenities. Good location. Near the centre of Swanage, about 10 minute walk. Lots of restaurants and shops. Near the beach. There a smart tv with Netflix, YouTube Disney+, everything you have with smart tv.

We really enjoyed our stay. We were there for 10 days from the US to attend a wedding. The flat allowed plenty of space for my family of 4 for the duration. It was nice to have a kitchen and be a short walk from 2 grocery stores. The town is beautiful, and people were so friendly. Staff at the Crooked Swan were a dream. We got to know several of them during our visit. A few recommendations: House instructions would be ideal. The WiFi network and password wasn’t posted, so we had to email the Swan, and it took a bit to get it sorted. It took us a few days to figure out how to open up the large ceiling windows throughout. There’s a pole in the primary bedroom to do it, but we didn’t realize what it was right away. It was very hot when we arrived, so that would have been helpful to know at check-in. It also would be great to have a large broom or vacuum, as the floors got quite dusty over our long stay. Overall, we loved it. I certainly recommend to others, especially families.

We had the most amazing time! Lyme Regis is truly worth a visit. Absolutely beautiful with lots of restaurants and extremely dog friendly. Richards place is perfect so near to the seafront with a parking place that once there you don’t need your car so it’s brilliant !! As parking is costly and not much parking around. The home is spotlessly clean, lovely comfortable beds, beautiful view from the decking. Probable the best place to stay in Lyme Regis. We will definitely be back.

Excellent host. Very responsive and well worth the price. I asked for an earlier checkin and they were more than happy to accommodate. There was scaffolding up around the building, but we were aware of this before and it didn't block the sea view. I would definitely recommend.

Wonderful, just wonderful! My family and I loved our stay in the Sandpearl apartment. Most of all, the view from the living room and the master bed room is just amazing, I could spend hours just watching the sea waves and the beach and listening to the sea... the apartment itself is spotlessly clean and has everything one might need but nothing feels like clutter. The kitchen even included plastic plates and bowls for children, and the living room had a good selection of books and boardgames. The host, Debbie, was very helpful, always responding very quickly. We asked for local recommendations for food on Easter Sunday and got a few options to choose from. The location itself, right at the beach and right in the middle of Weymouth, couldn't be better either. An overall winner that I would highly recommend. Already talking about maybe coming back to this exactly same place again sometime soon!

We had a lovely couple of days stay here. The flat was immaculate and as described. Brilliant instructions of how to access the flat and where to find everything. Really kind extras which were a lovely surprise and just made the stay so much more special. We will definitely be back because of the lovely flat and the location of Corfe castle. Thank you Emily and Ed.

Anna's place was perfect for our visit to Weymouth. Very welcome and Friendly hosts with a well equipped apartment. Super clean and comfortable. Highly recommended.

We had a really enjoyable mini break. The flat was ideal for us and we loved the way it was decorated and furnished. Thank you to Andreas for being a wonderful host.

Carley was amazing! The place was just as described with a homely atmosphere!

Lovely place, very clean and decorated great. Mike was very easy to deal with, gave lots of recommendations and was on hand if we needed anything. We enjoyed exploring Lyme Regis 👍

Nice clean accommodation, well decorated with everything you would need, good communication from Maureen regarding the stay. Tesco nearby for groceries, Cafe 100yds away for coffee and breakfast or dinner. We stayed for a weekend and went to eat at Rick Steins one night and Poole harbour the next night.
