Connnected to Dorset only by a road-bridge and the famous Chesil Beach, The Cove Holiday Park known as 'Gibraltar of the Channel' in Isle of Portland, England, United Kingdom, first became a holiday venue with King George III and Queen Charlotte who made annual visits, "to delight in the different beauties of this romantic spot".
Stone from the Island has provided material for most of London's famous landmarks. Old quarries, beautifully reclaimed by nature, provide a maze of footpaths.
Explore by foot or horseback and discover the secrets of Isle of Portland, England, a rural paradise.

A rich maritime history is revealed by a harbour guarded by twin Tudor Castles and the Verne Citadel. From the comfort of your holiday home you can watch fishing while boats and ferries ply their daily trade, or glimpse the sleek, grey shadows of naval ships on the horizon.
The Cove Holiday Park, nestling in the former gardens of the Pennsylvania Castle, is situated in the lee of the island. This suntrap cove is ideal for safe bathing.
Come to the Isle of Portland, England, an idyllic, unspoilt rural haven, to recapture a style of life little changed from the last century.
