Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.

We are so pleased that you enjoy returning to 2 Driftwood. We very much appreciate your happiness to come back and that you always find the apartment to be clean and well maintained.
Glad the Amazon firestick was of benefit too.

"My friend and I found the apartment really comfortable."
It was a 'home from home' and we will definitely be back. Comfy beds, great shower, very quiet and peaceful which was a bonus and only a short drive to Bridport. Expect peace and quiet but no views to speak of. Also remember to take soap for the shower. I'd be back earlier but the week I'd like to go is fully booked! Brilliant 'goodie bag'. Highly recommend.

"This was our second stay at 2 Driftwood."
The apartment is really comfortable, warm and clean. As we stayed for 2 weeks, we would liked to have had another tea towel available (we didn’t bother to use the dishwasher for the 2 of us), also hand towels for use in the bathrooms would be helpful. It would be great if there was a smart TV, just to make the stay even more enjoyable.
Dear Guest,
It is always lovely to welcome returning guests and to hear that you really like our apartment.
We've now upgraded the SMART TV facility with an amazon firestick to enhance the accommodation.
We also contacted Lymebay Holidays who manage the apartment in regards to your feedback about the towels. They have informed us that this was their oversight and you should have had further linen, due to your 2 week stay. It is our understanding that they have written to you to apologise for this inconvenience and also to offer you a goodwill gesture.
We trust that you will be able to stay at the apartment in the future.

"Very clean, lots of info, books to read, games to play toys etc."
Welcome bag very nice touch, Fudge (mmm) Biscuits Tea Coffee, and milk. Very well equiped, with extras that you wouldn't expect, washing up liquid, spray, soap. Excellent location, swimming pool opposite, plenty of places to eat. Would definately go again. Only thing that lets it down is the view but as you are so close to beach you can walk the fudge off to see it. :-))

"This was our second stay and we like the location and the facilities in the apartment."
Unfortunately I suffer from arthritis now and we had some problems getting the luggage up the stairs will probably look for a place with a lift next time. Since there were three of us and we weren't together all the time a second set of keys would have been useful. Also the duvets were winter weight so we couldn't use them as it was hot during our stay. Appreciated the welcome pack though and overall had a good week.
Dear Guests,
We are very pleased that you have stayed with us before- our apartment is in a great location and we are glad that you like our facilities.
Lymebay Holidays are on call throughout the stay of our guests and are happy to try to accommodate any requests (such as keys/duvets) or any queries, in order to make your stay the best possible.

Where you’ll be staying
WEST BAY
Bridport 1.5 miles; Lyme Regis 11 miles.
West Bay, fondly known as “The Gateway to the Dorset Jurassic Coast” and popularised by the TV series Broadchurch, lies close to the glorious sandstone cliffs of Golden Cap, at the western end of the dramatic pebbly Chesil Beach. This is a wonderful seaside location, perfect for family holidays, offering scenic walks along the South West Coast Path, as well as ample opportunities to try your hand at sea fishing, crabbing, boating and golf. Visit the homes of Thomas Hardy and TE Lawrence, the Tank Museum at Bovington or the Naval air Museum at Yeovil. Only 1.5 miles away is the vibrant market town of Bridport, featured in the TV series, River Cottage. The area holds plenty of attractions to suit the whole family! Just a short drive West takes you to Charmouth for fossil hunting, to the picturesque seaside resort of Lyme Regis, and to River Cottage HQ near Axminster. To the East are the lovely Sub-tropical Gardens and Swannery at Abbotsbury, and the golden sands of Weymouth. This wonderful location makes an ideal base for a great family holiday.
