Such a lovely and spacious place! We didn’t get the chance to use the terrace and BBQ as the October weather was a bit unpredictable, but we can imagine how beautiful it would be to wake up to the sunrise over the estuary. The home was well-equipped and spacious, with a touch of luxury throughout. It’s close to town and surrounded by beautiful walks. Parking can be a little tricky, but we were lucky to find a spot n…

We stayed in this lodge as 6 adults, it was a lovely, clean space, well decorated with gorgeous views. On the doorstep of a golf facility and spa, which we made use of and only a short journey into Dartmouth.

We had a wonderful stay in Thurlestone – a long weekend – Thurs to Monday and despite Storm Amy we had some good times on the beach and local farm park attractions. The home was wonderfully appointed and had everything we needed and even suitable toys for the 18 month old in our party!

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!

“This is a magical home with the most beautiful view of the sea entrance to Dartmouth. Couldn’t have asked for better weather in December waking up to blue skies and sunshine. It’s worth the journey once you navigate all the steps and luggage down to Paul’s place. Would come again and bring more guests as there is plenty of room here for a big group. Love all the balconies and different levels of the house. Having a…
