Claremont in Portland is a wonderful place to stay, we found the house interesting historically, Lyne provided plenty of reading material about the Henty family – the original owners of the house and early settlers of Portland – and about Portland generally. The house is centrally located, clean, well heated with all the amenities you could possibly need. The breakfast was very tasty and there was plenty of it. Lyne was friendly and helpful, I would highly recommend a stay at Claremont.
