Guests frequently mention comfortable beds, cosy accommodation, and quiet surroundings. Minor comments include occasional noise from seagulls and privacy concerns due to ground floor windows.

Great little apartment on ground floor. Could have done with a rail in the shower. A couple of more towels would have been good. Well stocked kitchen. Extremely clean. A bit bare, some pictures would have broken up the plain white walls. Also a net curtain or similar, in the lounge would have been appreciated. Did either have to remain in the dark, or open curtains onto car park for everyone to see in as they walked by or in and out of cars. All in all a pleasant place to stay. Harbour, beach, food all within walking distance.

Sea Drift was a charming place to stay and well situated to access West Bay itself, plenty of walks, a good shop, swimming pool and fish and chip shop. It had everything you needed and was modern, clean and welcoming. There were two of us - a parking space was provided too. Sadly no view of the sea but everything was easily reached on foot. We thoroughly enjoyed our first stay in West Bay.

Had a lovely week staying in The Drift. Spacious, clean and lovely and warm. Ideal location…. Close to pubs, chip shops, cafes and the sea. Everything you could need in apartment is there. Huge comfy bed and massive walk in shower. Great having a parking space. Very quiet neighbourhood in the evenings so was able to sleep soundly with windows open. Great location for visiting Lyme Regis, Weymouth, Dorchester, Swanage and many more places. Highly recommend…. Will be staying here every year hopefully.
