We had a wonderful stay here, it was very well located and perfect for what we needed! Dartmouth itself is beautiful and would highly recommend! Thanks Paul for your help ahead of our stay!

“Fabulous little ‘find’ in the heart of Dartmouth above a wonderful cafe serving incredible breakfasts! The room was clean & functional with seaside memorabilia, paintings & a comfy king size bed & the coffee & tea making facilities were a pleasing extra! The bathroom was like a tardis with a huge shower & served its purpose for our stay!”

A lovely setting for a special family getaway. We would have no issue returning!

Torcross is the most beautiful place – even after the recent storm damage (and in fact the village needs supporting now more than ever) – in the most beautiful surroundings. This Airbnb is fantastic, with the most incredible view from the first floor window. Worth the price alone! It was such a joy sitting on the sofa watching the waves, both on sunny days and cloudy ones.

Fantastic trip, and wonderful accommodation. The river views kept us entertained when the stormy weather stopped us getting outside. Would highly recommend.

“The most perfect place to stay in Dartmouth for our group of 5! Beautiful spacious house, all the amenities you could need, comfy beds, beautiful garden and terrace with amazing views. The location is perfect as you have parking but also 5-10 minutes walk into the centre where you have many great pubs and restaurants. We will be back soon I’m sure!”

An exceptional place with a view that we sat and looked out at for hours. We had both rain and shine, and each were equally as enjoyable at this place. Can’t recommend more and will definitely be back

This is a really nicely appointed flat with lovely bathrooms in a good location. A bonus was the proximity of the bus stop so we could get a bus to and from Dartmouth (and elsewhere if we’d wanted) without having to worry about parking. We had poor weather but had it been sunny the two balconies would have been delightful. An extremely pleasant stay.

We stayed here for a week with our whole family. There was room for toddlers to play inside and out and we liked the garden and patio space The house is close to lots of great beaches and we hope to visit again

Great place – the garage parking is a rare thing and the views from the property are perfect. From watching the ferries, to the weather coming in, you can spend hours sitting in the bay windows quite happily! A very short walk into town as well.
