“We had an excellent week in Lower Deck. The cottage provided everything we needed. It is furnished to a high standard and well equipped. The beginning of town is around 5 mins and a little over 10 to the centre. Parking is always an issue in Dartmouth but doesn’t spoil another great week.”

Amazing house, perfect for our family trip. Access to the property is through a very narrow walled drive way which would not be suitable for all cars so bear this in mind. Great location just a short drive or bus trip to Dartmouth. 20 minute walk to Blackpool Sands beach or via the bus which is very quick. Well equipped kitchen with plenty of fridge/freezer space.

A truly beautiful secluded spot with a luxurious feel. We had everything we could have needed provided for us and everything worked perfectly. We only wish we could have stayed longer

Stayed for a month and had a really great experience. Everything is walkable from the place and the apartment is super cozy. Totally recommend!

“This is a characterful, quaint studio apartment, at the very top of a house right in the heart of Dartmouth, above a bustling and delicious café. The views across the estuary are unrivalled. The furnishings are characterful, the kitchen basic but does the job for a simple meal and ideal for a sunset drink and nibbles on the little balcony which is in the best possible place”.

Beautiful place with stunning views of the river. Had a great time there and conveniently located to walk into town. Just beware of the narrow road if driving to drop stuff off! 🤣😆

We really enjoyed our stay at Palm Cott. Directions for access were clear. The cottage was well-furnished and the beds were super comfy. We were grateful for the fans as the heatwave meant it got a bit stuffy at night! Kitchen was small but laid out well and had almost everything you need. We did think the addition of a veg peeler and cheese grater would be good. Everything worked well and we felt very at ho…
