The magnificent view of the harbour captivated us time and time again. But even apart from the location, I would have loved the apartment. It has everything you need and it has character. Check-in was easy, parking was straightforward, and there’s plenty to do nearby. Perfect!

This house, unassuming from the outside, is located in a quiet neighborhood, but its interior is charming and pleasant. A small welcome pack with coffee was in the kitchen. The top terrace invites you to relax and unwind, with a lovely view of the harbour and early morning sun. The second terrace is perfect for breakfast. In cooler weather, it would be nicer to sit on cushions. The wooden chairs were a bit damp. Jus…

Absolutely fabulous luxury apartment with a view to surpass all others. Photos dont do the listing enough justice! Cosy beds, luxury bathrooms and everything you need for a home from home stay. Dartmouth took our breath away.

Fantastic property, great views and wonderfully looked after. Had a really relaxing short break. Arrival instructions were perfect given the current road closure. Dartmouth is lovely with wonderful pubs, cafes and shops.

What a gem and in such a fantastic location. We know Kingsbridge well and this is our favourite place so far. It’s rare to find a place with a parking spot in the area We will be coming back. Thanks

This apartment was in a great spot very near to all the shops and restaurants, but it was still a quiet street at night. The apartment was pristine and spacious, and had everything you would need, including the parking permit for the nearby car park. We had a great few days.

This is such a beautiful place to stay, especially with the incredible garden and decking, my dogs were absolutely thrilled. At the very top of the garden there’s an incredible viewpoint looking over Dartmouth! If you have mobility issues, it might not be the most accessible, as getting up the hill to the house gets quite steep at the top, however it was worth the walk for me and my family, and we would come back wi…

Paul always communicated well with my queries. I would recommend using the postcode to find the property as the road name didn’t work. The property is down a very quiet country lane – one of those very narrow, grass growing in the middle country lanes. It was easy to get into and when you do you’ll find a very clean and spacious property. The layout worked well for us in that we were in the kingsize ensuite on the g…
