The owners were lovely when we arrived . The house is in a fantastic location literally a minute from Portland Harbour bay . Quiet location but only a 30-45 minute walk along the front to Weymouth harbour. The house was clean and well equipped ,everything we needed. Lovely garden area. Dog friendly which was a bonus. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

"Very comfortable unfortunately the duvet was far too heavy for the time of year."
Like a lot of holiday lets the kitchen/chef's knives were blunt and being members of the older generation and not having an internet enabled TV we could have benefitted from a basic instruction guide. We did eventually fathom it out.
We thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks at Tidal Drift and would quite happily book it again if we return to Dorset.
We are very happy that you enjoyed your holiday at Tidal Drift Kathleen, we would love to welcome you back.
We are sorry you found the tv complicated to use but unfortunately modern smart televisions do not come with a basic instruction guide anymore and rely on users being able to use the “ on board guide” or information via the Internet.
All our beds have 10.5 tog duvets which are ideal for Spring and Autumn, or for using all year round. There is a fan in the bedroom for use when we experience very hot spells of weather as you experienced.

The main problem are the noisy stairs & also the same with the adjoining properties. Smallmouth beach isn't safe for a dog off the lead it is very close to the busy Portland Road . Wyke Regis is a very built up area the local traffic is busy. The better beach is at Sandsfoot about 1 mile away. The south west coastal path is closed due to a land slide.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Tidal Drift."
The house was exceptional. Very clean, bright and airy and had all you needed. There was a wonderful feel to the property, it was very homely and we felt quite sad to leave it.
It was even better than in the pictures. The view of the sea from the double bedroom is better than shown in the information and a great viewing point for the sunrise in the morning.
It's a great place to stay and visit other places from and we loved the cycle tracks, great walks and swimming on your doorstep.
The only thing we were disappointed with was the lack of recycling? There were no provisions made for that?
We would definitely book again 100%

"We really loved Tidal Drift and found it to be a genuine home-from-home!"
We had one or two ideas we wanted to share with you which we hope might make it even better:
As a family we are a bit driven by time (even on holiday!) and so wondered if the addition of a kitchen clock might help others of a like mind;
The kitchen is extremely well-equipped with excellent pans and knives and we were comfortably able to prepare ourselves any kind of meal that we wanted (not always true of holiday properties!). We did however feel the lack of kitchen tongs, and also (in the city of fish) a fish-slice. We actually bought a fish-slice, and hopefully left it for the house;
We thought it might be a lovely addition to provide a guest book for comments. This is a great way for families to extol the virtues of the property to you (of course!) but also to leave advice and experiences for subsequent guests ("don't miss fireworks on a Monday", "the Crab House is gorgeous!", etc.);
Finally, we generated (ahem) a fair quantity of bottles over our two weeks and were a bit disappointed that we couldn't recycle them. We understand that you have simplified the often-complex local rules on how to process rubbish, but would it be possible to include a glass recycling box in addition to the black bin?
Thank you so much for your review, we are so delighted that you had such a lovely holiday at Tidal Drift. Guest feedback is always very valuable, and we have noted all your suggestions. Unfortunately Dorset Council process the refuse from Tidal Drift, and do not currently offer recycling with the service they provide for our property.
