Annesley House Accommodation

This is our second time at Annesley House ; we absolutely love this place. Beautiful old home, great atmosphere, Mark the owner is most helpful and recommended some excellent visits. There is a lot to do around Portland, Cape Bridgewater (all around please…) is a must if you like walking. The kitchen in the House Keeper apartment is fully equipped and has more than what the average self-contained accommodation usually offers. This was another memorable stay at Annelsey, thank you.

This is really a memorable stay to me. 4 of us stayed in the house keeper room. We indeed enjoyed the character and atmosphere of the room and the entire building. We even spent time to play with the super buddy there namely Sid in our backyard (Long hair Dachshund). Very nice!

We stayed in Dr Brewer's apartment. The house must have looked beautiful at some stage, however it has been cheaply refurbished and has lost some of its former glory. The kitchen/eating/TV area didn't have any outlook and the furniture arrangement was awkward. The high ceilings, lack of curtains (there are blinds) and sparse decoration in the rooms give a feeling of emptiness. The bathroom, directly off the eating area, in an extension of the house, definitely needs refurbishing and relocating. The heating in the bathroom was poor and we couldn't have too many appliances switched on together in the kitchen/TV area as it blew a fuse. The place was generally clean but brown towels is not a good color choice. We were attracted by the beautiful photos on the website but felt disappointed once we got there. Perhaps the other apartments were nicer than ours? Guests in the apartment above us were very noisy until 2am and kept us awake.
