The photos of this place don’t actually do it justice! Such a beautiful home with the most incredible views. We had to park in the main car park and then walk to the house which I’m sure would have been less stressful if we didn’t have a lot of bags, but we managed! We would honestly come and stay here again. Watching the boats from the top window was so peaceful!

Pictures don’t do it justice! Beautifully decorated – attention to detail in every room. Thoughtful touches provided.

Dartmouth park & ride is about 10 min easy drive away making a lovely day out. Loved our stay & hope to retur…

This is the most beautiful apartment I have ever stayed in – we could not get enough of the view! No matter the weather, that view is incredible. It was also beautifully furnished and had everything we needed. 5 min walk up a gentle hill from the town centre.

We had a fantastic stay and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The property was exactly as described—spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully set up with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It felt like a home away from home from the moment we arrived. Communication with the host was excellent throughout—helpful, and quick to respond, which made everything smooth and stress-free. It’s i…

Just back from a lovely week at this property. Its a fantastic house in a great location for a 20 min walk into Dartmouth centre or a 5 min walk to the castle and nearby coves. Would definitely recommend it.
