A very comfortable and clean ground floor flat with all the facilities you could need for an holiday. We parked the car on arrival and used the very convenient local bus service which was only a few minutes walk from the flat. We will definitely consider staying here again.

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at Driftwood and we have enjoyed our stay again. The flat is easy accessible to the beach and also to local amenities. The town centre of Paignton is not too far away and the buses run very regular to Torquay and Brixham. We will definitely consider staying again.

The overall time at Driftwood was very good. Although there was a sweeping brush in the apartment, there wasn't a dustpan to use. Especially if you've been to the beach & sand inadvertently gets on the floor it means you tread it around. I do feel, in my opinion, that net curtains in the living space would be beneficial especially using the table to sit & eat at. But these are only minor details! We would definitely stay again, it is so central to all areas to visit, as well as walking distance to the beach.
