Very nice villa and very luxurious, and it was very clean. It will definitely be our option every time we come to Dartmouth. Really liked it and they were so nice and the instructions were very easy to find the villa although the road was closed, but they made it very easy to find it We reached late at night and it was raining but thanks to clear instructions. We find the villa and we really enjoyed it. Our family r…

We had a great time staying here with our young baby. The views are so good, when you have to stay in to do baby stuff you don’t feel like you’re missing out! Would absolutely stay here again if I was coming back to Dartmouth.

Super space to stay to play golf or explore the river Dart. Perfectly placed for easy trip to Dartmouth, Dittisham, Greenways or to the beaches. Would recommend the Sportsman’s Arms around the corner for meals and the Garden Centre Garden Time- not only really knowledgeable but super food (can recommend the breakfast) and service at both.

We also loved sitting outside on the patio in the evening sun in between dips in the hot tub. Pure luxury!! Woodlands ad…

The place is beautiful. In the middle of a farm. The kids had a small area to play as well. It is very well located.

We really enjoyed our stay at Palm Cott. Directions for access were clear. The cottage was well-furnished and the beds were super comfy. We were grateful for the fans as the heatwave meant it got a bit stuffy at night! Kitchen was small but laid out well and had almost everything you need. We did think the addition of a veg peeler and cheese grater would be good. Everything worked well and we felt very at ho…

A lovely property in a perfect location, just a stone’s throw from local amenities. The views from the lounge and the roof top balcony truly were amazing and a real highlight of our holiday. Paul was extremely helpful whenever I needed to contact him.
