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…

Our weekend away in Dartmouth was very much enhanced by the very stylish (and clean!) Dart Loft. The location was perfect for exploring the town and river, and it was relatively straightforward to find somewhere to park while we unloaded the car. We’re already thinking about returning next year!

Cedar House is a beautiful property with space for 8 people. Well fitted out with thoughtful touches. It is located in the lovely village of Stoke Fleming, with a great pub and Italian restaurant within a few minutes walk. The beautiful shingle beach at Blackpool Sands is about 15 mins walk on the coast path (fairly steep on the way back!)

The views!! Highly recommend this place – we stayed as 5 adult couples. Views are breathtaking, house is well equipped & clean. Great comms, easy to find. Location is perfect for walking into town and also quiet enough to chill on the balcony. We made good use of the BBQ and terraces. We’d definitely return – no one wanted to leave! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

We had a lovely stay here! It’s a great location for wandering into town. We used it as a base to explore surrounding areas like salcombe. The kitchen is very well equipped which is always a bonus when cooking away from home. Thanks for a lovely stay!

The lodge is perfect in every way. Stunning surroundings and beautiful sunsets. The lodge was extremely clean and comfortable and had everything that we needed (it would be good to have liquid soap provided in the bathrooms for hand washing as we didn’t think to bring this) and we cooked on a few evenings. The lodge is beautifully laid out and we immediately felt at home. It was a great extra having the clubhouse wi…

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.

“We had a great stay at the lodge! It is beautifully decorated, and has everything we needed for a family with children. The lodge was spotless on arrival, and we appreciated the wine left to welcome us, plus all the good supply of toiletries for us to use during our stay. We loved coming back to such a cosy space after our days out in the cold – the log burner was great, and the cabin was lovely and warm for the du…
