Stunning property. Super warm. Hot tub very well maintained with daily checks. Lovely views. Small construction site nearby wasn’t a problem at all. Very responsive host. Great facilities but make sure you book spa well in advance!

We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful lodge number 2 on the Dartmouth golf and leisure estate at Dartmouth Grove. The lodge was beautifully clean and everything well thought through with a local theme. Location was directly on a wonderful championship golf course and excellent value as well as a spa, pool, tennis court and gym all on site. The gym and pool were free for all guests in the lodge and the spa was 25%…

Would recommend you having a car as a little run around, as everything is within a 10/20 minute drive from the lodge, but would be a little diffic…

Our third stay and always spotlessly clean and welcoming. It is in a quiet area but still within a short walk to town with the added bonus of a parking permit. Tracey is extremely helpful. Highly recommended.

My sister and I came with our two children for the half term. We wanted to get into the hustle and bustle of Dartmouth, without being in the middle. The house is in a great location, close to beaches/shops/local attractions. The house its self was perfect, plenty of space, well equipped and super cosy! We had three days of rain, so the added bonus of being able to use the pool with the children was great. Paul was o…

Really lovely property, beautifully decorated. Perfect base for short break. We did not struggle to park on the road near the property, but did not then move the car. Very convenient for all local shops, bars and restaurants. Lacking wine glasses (all mismatched). I would imagine the living area would be very squashed if fully occupied, fine for two of us and dog. The TV connectivity also poor, programme lagged badl…

If you know Dartmouth, then you understand this is the best place to stay! Amazing access to the Cove for crabbing and an easy walk to the castle for a day out.

“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”.
