Paul’s place was just stunning. The house was beautifully presented and designed. The location was great and I would go back in a second, I wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a wonderful stay in Dartmouth! The views from every room were amazing. The apartment had everything we needed and felt just like home. It’s only about a 10-minute walk to the shops, pubs, and restaurants, which was really convenient. Paul fantastic, thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.

We loved staying here as it had all the facilities we needed, felt extremely comfortable and had a fantastic garden. We enjoyed having the games room, with table tennis and darts. We would recommend staying here and we will be booking again soon.

The location was ideal fo…

Positives: car park pass/comfortable bed/powerful shower. Suggestions: have a mirror near a power socket/reserve table at breakfast for guests (if guests give time for breakfast ‘slot’ table would be available to the public outside these times – we foolishly went down around 10am and would have faced a 30 min wait to be seated. My suggestion – get down by 7am, Alf Fresco is hugely popular with the public (right…
