Maureen
June 2025

“This was the third time we have stayed in this apartment, and each time it has been exceptionally clean and you can smell the cleanliness when you enter.”

There is absolutely everything you can possibly need to make it a home from home experience, even down to condiments in the cupboard. Also the added touch of the lovely welcome pack is amazing and to have the added extra benefit of fresh milk in the fridge was such a surprise. Thank you to all concerned in making it a lovely holiday. Maureen and Steve.

Bridget July 2024

“My friend and I found the apartment really comfortable.”

It was a 'home from home' and we will definitely be back. Comfy beds, great shower, very quiet and peaceful which was a bonus and only a short drive to Bridport. Expect peace and quiet but no views to speak of. Also remember to take soap for the shower. I'd be back earlier but the week I'd like to go is fully booked! Brilliant 'goodie bag'. Highly recommend.

- Bridget, July 2024

Dear Guest, Thank you for your positive feedback; we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at 2 Driftwood and found the apartment a 'home from' home.' We are so fortunate to be located in such a great area to explore. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Property Owner

“A very nice apartment close to the sea with everything you’re likely to need for however long you stay.”

I’m sure that we will make a return visit soon as we really like West Bay and Bridport and the property is ideal.Certainly wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to family and friends. John & Amanda

Helen April 2024

“This was our second stay at 2 Driftwood.”

The apartment is really comfortable, warm and clean. As we stayed for 2 weeks, we would liked to have had another tea towel available (we didn’t bother to use the dishwasher for the 2 of us), also hand towels for use in the bathrooms would be helpful. It would be great if there was a smart TV, just to make the stay even more enjoyable.

- Helen, April 2024

Dear Guest, It is always lovely to welcome returning guests and to hear that you really like our apartment. We've now upgraded the SMART TV facility with an amazon firestick to enhance the accommodation. We also contacted Lymebay Holidays who manage the apartment in regards to your feedback about the towels. They have informed us that this was their oversight and you should have had further linen, due to your 2 week stay. It is our understanding that they have written to you to apologise for this inconvenience and also to offer you a goodwill gesture. We trust that you will be able to stay at the apartment in the future. Property Owner
Annette November 2023

“Very clean, lots of info, books to read, games to play toys etc.”

Welcome bag very nice touch, Fudge (mmm) Biscuits Tea Coffee, and milk. Very well equiped, with extras that you wouldn't expect, washing up liquid, spray, soap. Excellent location, swimming pool opposite, plenty of places to eat. Would definately go again. Only thing that lets it down is the view but as you are so close to beach you can walk the fudge off to see it. :-))

- Annette, November 2023

Dear Guest, We very much appreciate your positive feedback and are so pleased that you enjoyed staying at 2 Driftwood and that you liked the facilities on offer. 2 Driftwood has a great location being so close to the harbour and beach - with a wide selection of eateries nearby too. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Property Owner

“We had the best stay at driftwood so close to all amenities and was perfect for our week away in westbay :)”

- Tara, August 2023

Dear Guest, It's great to hear that you enjoyed your stay at 2 Driftwood. West Bay is indeed a great location and 2 Driftwood is perfectly situated close to the harbour, beaches, and amenities. We hope you consider a return visit in the future. Property Owner
Martin July 2023

“Lovely spacious and clean apartment which is perfectly located for walking the Southwest Coastal path.”

The kitchen is really well equipped, bed very comfortable and the welcome pack was amazing. The only negative is that the view on one side is several blocks of flats and on the other side the caravan park.

- Martin, July 2023

Dear Guest, It's lovely to hear that you found 2 Driftwood comfortable, well equipped, and clean. It's in a great location as it is so close to the beach, harbour, and all amenities. (We hope the immediate views did not impede too much your enjoyment of the apartment and area.) Property Owner
Michael June 2023

“This was our second stay and we like the location and the facilities in the apartment.”

Unfortunately I suffer from arthritis now and we had some problems getting the luggage up the stairs will probably look for a place with a lift next time. Since there were three of us and we weren't together all the time a second set of keys would have been useful. Also the duvets were winter weight so we couldn't use them as it was hot during our stay. Appreciated the welcome pack though and overall had a good week.

- Michael, June 2023

Dear Guests, We are very pleased that you have stayed with us before- our apartment is in a great location and we are glad that you like our facilities. Lymebay Holidays are on call throughout the stay of our guests and are happy to try to accommodate any requests (such as keys/duvets) or any queries, in order to make your stay the best possible. Thank you for revisiting. Property Owner
Helen April 2023

“The apartment is in a wonderful central location in West Bay.”

All facilities and equipment at the property were of high quality. Spotlessly clean, very comfortable beds and living room area. Only thing to suggest would be provision of an apron in the kitchen.

- Helen, April 2023

Thank you so much for your positive and encouraging comments. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at 2 Driftwood and that you found the apartment very comfortable and meeting high standards in cleanliness and quality. Property Owner
John January 2023

“2 Driftwood is a lovely, well-appointed apartment which is excellent for a relaxing stay.”

The compromise of a lack of sea-view is no hardship as the location is very convenient for all the amenities & walks. Lyme Bay Holidays provided an excellent service for any requirements we had. Our only disappointment is that we couldn't spend another week there.

- John, January 2023

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at 2 Driftwood. The location is a great spot, minutes away for the harbour and sea front. We hope you can return for another visit in the future. Property Owner
Pauline November 2022

“Clean and comfortable accommodation.”

Well-stocked with kitchen/dining equipment. (A tea tray would have been useful).

- Pauline, November 2022

Thank you for your kind comments. We are pleased that you had a comfortable stay. Indeed, a tea tray is useful and so we have put one in the property. We hope you can visit again. Property Owner
Lesley November 2022

“A really excellent apartment with everything we could possibly need.”

Very well maintained and great location near everything that West Bay has to offer, including the bus stop. Would definitely stay again!

- Lesley, November 2022

Thank you for your positive feedback. The location of 2 Driftwood is great and West Bay is a fantastic location for a holiday in Dorset. We hope you can visit again. Property Owner
Mel September 2022

“The apartment was very clean and tidy.”

We liked the layout very much. The welcome pack was a very nice touch. A couple of minor points: 1. Clearer instructions as to the location of the meter box. 2. A shelf in the shower cubicle would be handy.

- Mel, September 2022

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. 2 Driftwood is a great holiday apartment as it is so close to the harbour and beach. Glad you enjoy the yummy welcome pack too! We noted your points and have inserted a shower shelf in the cubicle. We've also have asked Lymebay Holidays to check the instructions for the key access. Property Owner

Susan July 2022

“A full length mirror would be an asset as would something in the shower to hold your gel, shampoos etc as an older person i felt quite unsafe having to keep bending down to retrieve the toiletries.”

Everything else was perfect.

- Susan, July 2022
Lyndsey June 2022

“Lovely seaside town, apartment within minutes of the beach.”

Plenty of food options in town too. Apartment decorated beautifully and very comfortable. Would definitely visit again.

- Lyndsey, June 2022

We appreciate your positive comments and are so pleased that you found our apartment comfy and relaxing. It is indeed very well situated to enjoy the West Bay harbour as well as the iconic beach. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner
Lorraine June 2022

“There was no sea view as listed in the property details, only view was of the bins and caravan park opposite.”

But this would not put us off booking the same apartment again. Also hard to find the meter cupboard for the key, you should tell people it is floor level , found it eventually after calling the office. Apart from this we had a great stay perfect location. Thank you

- Lorraine, June 2022

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay in our apartment. Lymebay Holidays have recently joined Sykes holidays: Both have apologised for their oversight in listing a 'seaview', which we, as owners, have never stated: this has now been corrected on their websites. Please accept ours and their apologies too and as you know our apartment is very well situated, being just a 2 minute stroll to the seafront and harbour. We hope you can visit again to enjoy the delights of our apartment and West Bay. Property Owner
Anna June 2022

- Anna, June 2022

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.
