    “Sometimes there arises unbidden within me the thought that Picasso visited Portishead, and left that place inspired.”

    “Its OK. Particularly if you have a 'sea' view.

    It's been described as the biggest cul-de-sac in Britain though (incompetent & corrupt council facilitated large development with no infrastructure). Theres only one road out of town. Trying to get out in the rush hour is hard than crossing the M25 on a skateboard.

    “Yes, @BCC, Portishead is beautiful, in a 'Derek Jarman' kind of way.

    And yes, with just the B3124/A369, if you work in Bristol, the commute can be horrendous. No train service. Also not great when the M5 backs-up.

    If you are planning to commute, I would recommend a trial run during a morning rush hour, just to see if you lose the will to live.”

    “And one other thing, houses prices a slightly inflated on the back of the housing developers control and estate agents playing the area. Watch out for parking issues on the new estates.”
