We had such a beautiful stay in Dartmouth. You felt at home the moment you walked in and the house has been beautifully decorated. The outdoor area is perfect for having dinner and watching the boats come and go. You are right in the heart of town and have everything you need on your doorstep. It is quite a tight lane for cars to get to the house and then parking is about a five/ten minute walk from the house, you c…

We had a lovely stay, the apartment has been beautifully renovated & looked just like the pictures. We had great weather so could make use of the balcony. We were able to walk down to the harbour area avoiding the main road, and caught a bus back to save a walk up the hill in the heat. Any pub or restaurant visits require going down to the harbour as this is in a residential area, but the location is very quiet and …

What an amazing Apartment and so close to the town, 1 minute walk. Lounge, kitchen/dining are perfect for two. Great facilities including dishwasher and washing machine. Bedroom downstairs made the place feel a bit different and special. Great bath and shower doesn’t come much better. Would expect to pay more for this place!

Dartmouth has been a family favourite for years but after many camping trips to the area we decided to upgrade and book this property. It did not disappoint. The views are incredible, we had everything we needed in the apartment and the location was perfect for walking into town. We would highly recommend and most certainly will be back.

This place is incredible. Don’t be put off by the location and the country lanes. It is well worth it. It was by far the most peaceful and relaxing place I’ve ever stayed, and is so well decorated and furnished. Lovely touches including a bottle of wine on arrival! The location is really not that difficult especially once you’ve done it the first time. If are you from the UK like ourselves and are used to country la…
