Reviewers loved the views from the apartment, though some raised issues with the accommodation. A guest praised: "Beautiful flat. Enjoyed watching the sunrise every morning from the big windows with an uninterrupted view of the sea. Beds were also comfortable. Plenty of toys and board games available to keep the kids happy."

Someone else wrote: "Absolutely lovely apartment. It was so thoughtfully furnished and such a breath of fresh air to have so many items that are suitable for families. Perfect location for the beach and for looking out to sea over a morning coffee. Totally gorgeous."

However, a different reviewer commented: "We had a lovely week. The flat was very clean and had everything we needed and plenty of space for the two of us. The seaview is a big plus. The only disappointments were that it stands on a very busy road, though maybe we shouldn't have been surprised, given its location, and that we couldn't get wifi in the twin bedroom, neither of which would stop us staying again as we loved being so close to the sea for our morning dips."

Someone else with mixed feedback replied: "Excellent location, just across the road from the beach and short walk to the town/harbour. So many beautiful walking routes close by. The view of the sea from the lounge was amazing.

"The apartment was comfortable with good facilities. Off road car parking was definitely a bonus. The only negative for us was the lack of windows in the bedrooms, having said that, this would not prevent us from booking here again as the positives far out way this negative."

Meanwhile, a reviewer thought: "Superb property, exactly as listed and in a perfect location on esplanade with beach and all amenities on doorstep. Very practical layout and star attraction being front room with huge windows overlooking sea. Had a perfect stay and one of our family’s favourite UK breaks ever.

"If there’s an observation, it’s the double bedroom - a little on the small side with minimal storage and a seemingly worn and uncomfortable mattress. Nothing some shelving in wardrobe and a new mattress wouldn’t resolve. Overall, an amazing property for our holiday."

A similar response read: "Wessex View is a beautiful property with period features and an amazing view. The road is busy and obviously there was traffic noise but we expected this. There was everything we could need in the flat & it's just a short walk into town. The only issue for us was the mattress which wasn't the most comfortable if you have back problems."
