Escape to this cosy apartment offering a comfortable retreat for up to four guests in the charming West Bay of Dorset. Enjoy sociable open-plan living, your own private patio and easy access to the village’s sandy beaches at this warm and welcoming home.

Step inside, where comfortable seating awaits. Whether watching TV, playing board games, or snuggling up by the electric fire, this space is designed for relaxation. The well-equipped kitchen is perfect for crafting delicious meals, enjoyed at the breakfast bar or dining table. The apartment features a snug double bedroom, and a double sofa bed is available upon request. After busy days at the beach, freshen up in the en-suite bathroom. Outside, a private patio invites you to unwind while overlooking the shared lawn.

The apartment is situated 100 metres from the harbour and beach, allowing you to experience the quintessential seaside allure of this quaint fishing village. Admire the picturesque harbour and explore a variety of shops, cafes, and pubs that add to the village's charm.

This dramatic stretch of the Jurassic Coast promises exhilarating walks and exploration along the South West Coast Path towards Seaton in the west and the 18 miles of Chesil Beach to the east. 0.5 miles away, Bridport, once famed for its rope-making trade, has transformed into a cultural and entertainment hub with plenty of shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes to uncover.

Overall the location is obviously the key selling point but we felt it was overpriced for the standard. It could be fabulous but needs a little tlc.

Perfect location for dog owners. Dog friendly beach with lovely views along the coast. Great to have parking. Clean but a little tired,could do with updating. Still good value.

The apartment is in a great position near to the beach and all amenities. It was modern inside, clean and tidy with everything we needed. Very dog friendly at West Bay.

Excellent location, very close to beach. Lovely area and locals are lovely. Amenities are good. Only down point is that the fridge, even on coldest setting did not keep food properly cool resulting in lots of food and milk being thrown away. This property has no washing machine which is a bit of a shame but apart from that had great stay

Good location, but parking not included which was a surprise on arrival and not very attentive owners when the outside door didnt lock or unlock.

Apartment had not been cleaned properly and crockery and cutlery we're dirty. Problems reported together with issues of bedroom storage.eg cupboard and rail only accessible by standing on bed. No satisfactory solution offered other than to go home for partial refund.
