1 Driftway Court is a well-appointed ground floor apartment, featuring open plan living / dining room, leading onto its own courtyard where one can enjoy the hot summer sunshine. Visitors can enjoy easy access to the sea front, popular shops and quaint places for a bite to eat, yet, this apartment is positioned a short distance from the hustle and bustle of the main high-street in those busy summer months.

Two minutes WALK to the beach/promenade and five minutes WALK to the town, we used the car once in the week to go to the brilliant Rocky Bottoms. We have now booked for our third stay next year so they are obviously doing something right! We stayed in October and the heating system was very good. Private parking is such a bonus. Suggested improvements: electric shower is a bit weak, more power points, and a bit more privacy on the windows (mirror foil?). We'll be back!

On arrival ...the flat smelled , the furniture outdated. The sofa stank and was fit for a skip. The bed topper stained. I went immediately back to Keys . They gave me a new mattress cover. I went back to make the bed up. The duvet was stained ,i found another and this was stained. By then keys were shut . The curtains and all furnishing a disgrace . Second bedroom all duvets stained. We had waited all year for this holiday ....totally disgusted. The shower just dribbled out . The wall by the boiler soaking wet , the wall by the patio door soaking wet . There was a man in our garden painting the fence !!!. When we went to bed . It was the hardest bed I've ever slept on . I went back to keys ....and they just said they would take a look at it and offered 10 % off our next holiday . We were gutted ...we both ached all.over got no sleep we were bitten no doubt fleas ......couldn't wait to come home ....worse holiday ever .....

Thank you for your review and we are so sorry that you encountered damp during your stay. This has now been fixed and we and the owner thank you for bringing this to our attention (had we of been aware of this we would have dealt with it prior to your arrival). We have also now spoken to the owner who has organised new bedding (again had she of been aware, would have done so before your arrival) and will review all the furniture when they come down next month. The person in the patio was a neighbour, who took it upon himself to be kind/neighbourly and paint the fence - he will not do this again when guests are staying.

Love staying here

We have stayed here quite a few times. It remains our favourite choice of place to stay each year.We hope to return again next year. We have only one minor quibble. The TV screen is too small for the room and you need a telescope to see it from the sofa!!! But it is a minor quibble. Cleanliness is excellent. Furnishings are dated but still more than satisfactory. Location is brilliant. Close to seafront and to town centre.

Very comfortable stay in this well positioned apartment just minutes from the beach. Clean and tidy on arrival. No issues at all. Would and probably will book again. You have to bring your own bed linen and towels which is no effort at all. Good parking for car.

This flat is very roomy, so it's great for rainy days when you can't go far. Beds were great, loved the kitchen and the lounge is lovely. I've stayed in Keys properties for years, this is the first time we weren't left at least one toilet roll, it was horrible to have to arrive in a taxi and then have to walk to the shops for toilet roll.

We had a very nice time in the flat. Every thing was clean and tidy. Every thing we needed was provided and more.
The furniture in the living room is very dated and the sofa and chair was very worn and a bit dirty looking. The spring in the arm chair were very uncomfortable. This did spoil the flat a little especially when we sat down in the evening.

In a great location, perfect for access to sea for swimming, coastal walks and the town. Parking a bonus. A spacious property, a little tired in decor, as expected, but it had a good feel about it. Bed was comfortable. Wi-Fi worked well. Washing line in small courtyard very useful for drying swimwear/ towels. Would book again.

A lovely clean flat and a great location. It is a well equipped flat but it would be nice to have a washing machine. We would definitely come here again

We were looking for a place to stay for just 4 nights and this fitted the bill. We did not use the oven but missed a washing machine. The laundrette in town was not open for the public when I needed it so had to do essentials by hand. No washing line but I improvised. Otherwise it was a pleasant place to stay and convenient to beach and shops.

We have stayed in many different properties in Sheringham over the years all have been good. Our needs have changed and 1, The Driftway was perfect in all ways, near the beach we use, parking space, on one floor, clean, well presented. If i have a negative then having to make beds and stripping them when vacating that is all.
Very Happy, thank you to owners. If available next year we would book again.

Furniture outdated but it is clean and comfortable with everything you need. Lighting, in the lounge particularly, needs updating. A super place to stay and your own parking spot is a big bonus. Thank you.

A good spacious 2 Bedroom ground floor flat, which has a patio. But wheelchair access wasn’t easy.

A good 2 bedroom ground floor flat, with outside enclosed space. Although we had problems getting into the block that is Driftway Court as I’m in a wheelchair, but once we actually got into the accommodation of No1 Driftway Court itself we found it to be clean, with just about everything that up to 4 people would need to spend time on Holiday in Sheringham.
It’s very close to the sea, and the seating that is along the promenade, and there’s a kiddies play park quite close by. The shops are a bit further away than I thought they were.
If there is rain whist staying in 1 Driftway Court, there is absolutely no need to be bored because there are loads of board games to play, the unit in the lounge is full of just about every game/board game including Mousetrap, Scrabble and many more.

The flat is in a good position for town. The flat was clean, but the interior is still in the nineteen fifties ,except the bath room which had been refitted. Their are major building work being done at the rear of the property, and the week we where there the drive had been dug up to lay new electric cables, so we could not park in the allocated space, and had to park in the street which was ok as their are no parking restrictions near by.

We feel that this accommodation did not meet the standard of the previous rentals we have stayed at .We notified the agents of this and made a complaint regarding the uncomfortable beds, even though each one has been covered with a topper. Why ? if the mattress's are alright. We were so looking forward to this holiday, and for the first time booked a two week stay only to vacate after a few days. However, we will no doubt be holidaying with you again and thank you for your assistance prior to this unfortunate insident.

Very pleased with the location with easy access to the sea and shops.
Spacious property with good facilities, and good TV reception.
Could do with providing bed linen, and set of drawers for 2nd bedroom but we enjoyed our stay and would go again.
We needed a walking aid for my husband and couldn't praise the hire shop enough for their help and advice.

We enjoyed our stay at Driftway Court, despite a very stormy weekend. The apartment is well situated to be able to easily walk to everything Sheringham has to offer and the parking space is an added bonus. We found the apartment fairly comfortable for three guests but another armchair is really required for the fourth guest to be comfortable. Furniture was all very clean and serviceable as is the whole apartment, however some modernisation/decoration would make the world of difference.
