Built by the Victorians to protect Portland Harbour NOTHE FORT is one of the best preserved forts of its kind. The advances in technology that affected the fort are explained through many displays, exhibits and audio visual facilities located on the ramparts, gun decks and maze of underground passageways.
Enjoy the stunning and far reaching views of the Jurassic Coast from the picnic areas on the Ramparts. These will provide one of the best vantage points on the south coast. The gift shop aims to provide an interesting range of products designed to suit all members of the family, from souvenirs, books, toys and games, to a range of locally produced preserves, drinks and biscuits. There is also a recently refurbished café and restaurant facility serving a fine selection of hot and cold meals using fresh and locally sourced produce.
Nothefort offers a wide range of educational activities for schools & colleges as well as corporate hospitality, public events and private function hire all year round.
Nearby Weymouth has it all with an activity packed programme of events throughout the season, a world class bay & harbour, water- sports, fishing, three great beaches with safe sands and facilities to equal any in Europe.
