Last minute get away booked. Lovely area, cottage was lovely & great location to harbour. Host very helpful with a link to a guide to local places. Cottage was a little hard to find, but once we parked up we found it on foot then moved car after. Managed to park at back of cottage. Lovely stay. Thanks

The room was comfy, central to everything and was the perfect base for us to explore Dartmouth. The best way to start our day was going downstairs for breakfast in Cafe Alf Resco – delicious!! Thank you!!
