This property is a really lovely place to stay. Recently renovated and equipped with some quality fittings and furniture. The master bedroom is HUGE! and the second bedroom is very reasonable in size. Beds are comfortable and bathrooms are well equipped.
The courtyard provided a lovely outside space to sit and relax with drinks after a long walk. The property is accessed from the back of the street with its own entrance (basement apartment mid-terrace with 5 floors), which faces directly onto the West Cliff car park, so really easy to park in and unload directly outside the gate/door if arriving later as it is free parking in there from 1800hrs to 0900hrs. We stayed for 3 nights so used the car park first night then used the free parking scratch card from the next morning. You are allowed to park with the scratch card until 10am after the last day, a bit confusing to work out initially but it states this at the bottom of the card. Parking in the Disc zone - spaces are really hard to drop on so it worked for us to use the public car park first night then find one early the next morning as people were leaving/checking out in the area. The West Cliff is a great place to stay, quiet enough but within easy reach of the beach, town and a short walk across the bridge to the Abbey etc.
A real retreat! Very comfortable 5 mins from the beach and short walk into town and harbour area. We had a wonderful stay and our dogs loved the beach !
Excellent location; very stylish and comfortable interior fit out . No problems at all with the bedrooms and bathrooms...but let down by the services. The heating , for rather cool July weather is challenged; can't think how one would stay warm in March, and the hotter supply could not provide 3 showers, let alone 5, which is the property capacity. TV reception was none existent...someone has pressed too many buttons !
But...despite these things ..we really liked and enjoyed our stay . Signed...building professionals !!!
