Just a great cottage, superb views, spotlessly clean throughout, due to the storm things took a bashing , sadly the diversion through Kingsbridge was a major inconvenience. We loved the local pub great food and just a short stroll away, The bus service to the village and surrounding areas good, The rock fish in salcome just superb as they all are. Sunday lunch at the cricket inn at beesands was outstanding but you m…

We had a super time in The Apartment, Newcomen Road. The place was spotlessly clean and had everything we wanted and more. It is really conveniently located for the town of Dartmouth, including a walk to the castle. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped. We are grateful to Tracey for her communication. We hope to return as this apartment is a great find and we frequently visit Dartmouth.

The room was comfy, central to everything and was the perfect base for us to explore Dartmouth. The best way to start our day was going downstairs for breakfast in Cafe Alf Resco – delicious!! Thank you!!

Super space to stay to play golf or explore the river Dart. Perfectly placed for easy trip to Dartmouth, Dittisham, Greenways or to the beaches. Would recommend the Sportsman’s Arms around the corner for meals and the Garden Centre Garden Time- not only really knowledgeable but super food (can recommend the breakfast) and service at both.

We had a very enjoyable few days in this charming apartment. it was as good as and even better than the photos. It was beautifully appointed and the views from the windows over the Dart were breathtaking and wonderful to wake up to each morning. Luckily we were blessed with perfect autumn weather. Parking is a problem in most towns these days but we were lucky to find free parking at the end of the road. Paul was ve…

“Very quiet, great surroundings and view. the cows are great company and fun to watch , plus they love watching you sitting there, funny to watch them scratching themselves on the wall. nice and private seating to relax, watch the Swallows flying in and around the buildings”.
