The property
Located on the outskirts of Castletown, Portland is Bear's Apartment, a fabulous fourth-floor apartment. Enjoying direct sea views and a prime location near a host of amenities, the beach, and the marina, Bear's Apartment is complete with a contemporary interior, a private balcony, and designated parking, offering the ideal base for a seascape. Park up in the designated parking space and make your way up to the fourth floor before entering the light-flooded living space, where you can prepare meals in the sleek kitchen, dine in as a four, and unwind upon the chic corner sofa, with coastal vistas in sight. Head outdoors to truly make the most of your surroundings, enjoying an alfresco affair upon the balcony, before unwinding for the night with a glass of wine in hand. When sleep calls, select between two well-appointed bedrooms including a double with balcony access, and a twin with an en-suite shower room. The apartment is complete with a sleek bathroom, home to both a bath and a shower. Awaken to tour the marina, stock up on the essentials, or grab a bite to eat at The Kitchen at Portland Marina, a popular, local restaurant. Continue by foot to enjoy the shoreline of Chesil Beach, covering an 18-mile stretch, also a haven for water sports and wildlife spotting, or if you'd prefer a day of amusements, visit Weymouth and its shoreline of attractions, including Weymouth Museum, Alexandra Gardens amusement park, Nothe Fort, RSPB Radipole Lake, and SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth. Travel through Dorset AONB, to reach Dorchester, the centre of the county, also home to further attractions, where you can brush up on your local knowledge at the Dorset Museum, or discover the Kingston Maurward Animal Park and Gardens, before returning home for sundowners. Experience all of this, and more, at Bear's Apartment.
