Pier Terrace occupies a stunning position in the heart of West Bay adjoining the harbour and beach. West Bay is a thriving coastal resort with excellent amenities including public house, post office, general store, fishmonger butcher, restaurants and church - all arranged around the picturesque historic working harbour, which has recently been upgraded with a new outer harbour. The famous 'Riverside Restaurant' is only a short walk from the apartment. This has established itself as one of the country's leading seafood restaurants and takes pride in serving fresh fish. Their changing daily menu reflects the local landings, much of which is caught off the Dorset coast. The superb coastline is designated a World Heritage Site (the only one in the UK). Nearby is an 18 hole cliff top golf course and the historic market town of Bridport is within a couple of miles. The larger centres of Dorchester and Weymouth are both about a half an hours driving distance with mainline railway services.

Great views!!

Had a wonderful time, loads to do, have only just scratched the surface of the Jurassic Coast! Flat was very comfortable and the stairs were no problem having climbed lots of cliffs!! My only concern was parking on Bank Holiday weekend - it was very busy but after that it was fine! Would definitely recommend it as a holiday base!

Amazing!

SUPERem Salisbury, Wiltshire
Review Submitted: May 27, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
This property is incredible; it's so cosy and a real home from home. It has everything you'd ever need, I went thinking will it have things such as toilet rolls, washing tablets etc, it had everything. Tidy little nest, warm and really lovely.

The only downfall would be the stairs, its on the third floor, so if your super fit it's fine, but if your that little bit older, it could prove to be a struggle day in, day out.

There are wonderful restaurants and pubs scattered around West Bay, with friendly people waiting to take your order. There is a butcher, fish monger, corner shop, news agent, 2 amusement arcades (fun if you’ve run out of things to do) and a swimming pool open to the public.

I'd definitely return, without a second thought, the area is absolutely stunning in both rain and shine - it’s a really lovely village.

I went as his girlfriend, returned as his fiancé!

Great location and most comfortable bed ever !

Barry1963 Ashford, Middx
Review Submitted: April 28, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
I booked the apartment at 11am on a friday to arrive later that day. The owner could not have been more helpful. The location is easy to find with good roads all the way.
I was a little nervous as there were no pictures of the bedroom or living room but my concerns were unfounded.
The apartment was spotless and the kitchen and bathroom modern and well maintained.
Within a couple of hundred yards there are numerous pubs and restaurants so no need to drive anywhere. Similarly you are practically on the beach where the views are great and there are excellent walks.
There is a sat market in nearby Bridport which is worth a visit and again there ae numerous places to eat.
I booked a long weekend as a surprise for my wife and earned appropriate brownie points for good selection of both location and apartment.
What would I chnage ? Well the sofa in the living room had no arms which made it uncomfortable for me but hey I am struggling to pick fault. Its on the third floor so dont take a bag that is too heavy !
I would definitely recommend to friends and family and consider returning myself. If you are looking for a reasonably priced apartment in a fab location for time away with your partner then this is a good bet.
Remember Location, Location, Location
PS The bed was soooooooooooooo comfortable !!
