We had a great stay. The view really is amazing and it makes up for the no bathroom on the floor of the master bedroom. We ended up sleeping on the first floor. Easy access to beach. Good restaurants in walking distance.
This property was a hidden gem. Stunning view down Chesil beach. The coastal path is at the end of the road. Spacious bedrooms. Delightful first floor lounge and kitchen.
A few minor issues. You only get one front door key. For four adults, this was occasionally problematic.
No recycling! Under the guise of 'trade waste', everything goes into a black bin liner.
The road is narrow. You will have to drive up onto the pavement to get passed parked cars.
Overall, I liked it a lot.
Lived up to the photos. View from lounge was amazing and beautiful sunsets. Property was stylish and well equipped. Plenty of room as there were only four of us. Close to beach, pub and coastal path. We had a great week.
