West Bay, often known as "The Gateway To The Dorset Jurassic Coast," is located near the magnificent sandstone cliffs of Golden Cap. At the western end of the spectacular pebbly Chesil Beach, it was made famous by the TV series Broadchurch. This is a fantastic beachfront destination for family vacations, with gorgeous hikes along the South West Coastal Path and plenty of activities for sea fishing, golf, fossil finding, and boating.

Unfortunately on our return trip things have changed considerably. The flat needs lots of TLC. There is black mould on the ceiling in the main room and in the bathroom. The flat was dirty in several areas. The corridor that go's past the flat was very noisy. People constantly up and down in the lift (next to flat 30) made it very difficult for us to enjoy our stay.

We loved our short stay here, finding the kitchen small but well equipped. The bathroom is excellent with plenty of storage and a fantastic shower. (We didn't see a sign/instruction that the water heater needs to be turned on manually but that would have been helpful). We were a bit trepidatious about the bed being a pull-out one but it was very comfy and as good as a divan. A lovely place to stay and we'd definitely stay again.

Gorgeous view, which I'm missing already. Only recommendations would be a mattress topper as the bed is a bit uncomfortable, descaling the kettle and some wd40 on the door lock as the key was difficult to get in the lock. No lift key on the notice board.
