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.

The house was perfect for our family’s needs. The location is wonderful with a lovely local pub and shop. The bus service into Dartmouth was very convenient and meant we didn’t have to worry about parking etc. The house itself is exceptionally well equipped, especially the kitchen, where everything needed to cater for the family is provided. The quality of the furniture is very good especially the beds, which were v…

Lovely stay at Galions. The views are incredible, the beds super comfortable, and the location ideal – an easy walk into Dartmouth and very close to the castle and castle to town ferry. Would happily stay again.

“We have stayed in many holiday homes and this is definitely one of the best. The cabin is beautifully decorated with so much attention to detail. It was warm and cosy for our Easter break and I can imagine that in the summertime with full use of the deck and meadow above it will be gorgeous. Comfortable beds, spotlessly clean, well stocked kitchen, spacious and homely in a beautiful location. I wholeheartedly recom…

“The perfect place for our family of 8 adults. Close to everything, beautiful and it even had a decorated Christmas tree. Quick responses to any queries and kindly allowed early entry and later departure with no fuss. Would definitely return”.

We were extremely happy with our booking. The home was fantastic, clean, comfortable, well equipped and had a beautiful garden and sun terrace. No complaints from us at all. Good walking access to Kingsbridge, although up hill on the way back. The only thing I would say is the split level layout inside may be an issue to those with mobility issues. We loved it here and would love to come back.

We had a wonderful few days at the Boathouse – the location is second to none! To listen to the waves crash into the sea wall was the best! The pub was just right and the food was fantastic. All in all we had a relaxing and enjoyable weekend in a unique property with huge appeal. I hope to return soon.

Had a wonderful stay at this place in Dartmouth. Location was the standout. 2 minute walk to shops and restaurants, 5 minutes to parking and to the waterfront. Clean, well-stocked, and great communication from Paul. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
