    “This is a great property and one of the best we have stayed in at this complex.”

    The views are stunning, and the living area and kitchen are very well appointed. I found the Bed in the master too soft, and if we had stayed longer, the beds in the twin room would have suited me better. The chairs outside are well past their best - however, there were 4 additional plastic chairs provided. We also couldn't find the loungers listed, which was a shame as the terrace is wonderful. The shower control in the en-suite needs some maintenance, and the guest information needs updating ...

    The views are stunning, and the living area and kitchen are very well appointed. I found the Bed in the master too soft, and if we had stayed longer, the beds in the twin room would have suited me better. The chairs outside are well past their best - however, there were 4 additional plastic chairs provided. We also couldn't find the loungers listed, which was a shame as the terrace is wonderful. The shower control in the en-suite needs some maintenance, and the guest information needs updating i.e. there were no bags for us to leave the linens as instructed. These are very small points and we had a great time and have no problem recommending this apartment. If you get a chance, visit the Platform Restaurant.

About the location

WEST BAY

Bridport 1.5 miles; Lyme Regis 11 miles.

West Bay, fondly known as “The Gateway to the Dorset Jurassic Coast” and popularised by the TV series Broadchurch, lies close to the glorious sandstone cliffs of Golden Cap, at the western end of the dramatic pebbly Chesil Beach. This is a wonderful seaside location, perfect for family holidays, offering scenic walks along the South West Coast Path, as well as ample opportunities to try your hand at sea fishing, crabbing, boating and golf. Visit the homes of Thomas Hardy and TE Lawrence, the Tank Museum at Bovington or the Naval air Museum at Yeovil. Only 1.5 miles away is the vibrant market town of Bridport, featured in the TV series, River Cottage. The area holds plenty of attractions to suit the whole family! Just a short drive West takes you to Charmouth for fossil hunting, to the picturesque seaside resort of Lyme Regis, and to River Cottage HQ near Axminster. To the East are the lovely Sub-tropical Gardens and Swannery at Abbotsbury, and the golden sands of Weymouth. This wonderful location makes an ideal base for a great family holiday.
