This place is incredible. Don’t be put off by the location and the country lanes. It is well worth it. It was by far the most peaceful and relaxing place I’ve ever stayed, and is so well decorated and furnished. Lovely touches including a bottle of wine on arrival! The location is really not that difficult especially once you’ve done it the first time. If are you from the UK like ourselves and are used to country la…

Lovely apartment in a great location. Really enjoyed our stay. The mattresses and pillows are super comfy so great nights sleeps experienced by all of us. The bathroom has one of the best showers I have ever used. Great pressure. Totally recommend this apartment and would love to stay here again.

A fantastic house for a larger group get away; it had everything you could need and was pristine. Location was ideal being a very short walk from the town. Paul was a great host and was very responsive. We’ll be back!

This property has been finished to an extremely high standard and didn’t disappoint in any way. The views of Dartmouth are amazing and, being tucked away, is really quiet and secluded. The castle is only a short walk away as is the coastal path if you like walking. Dartmouth town is only 15mins or so by foot. I would certainly like to return in the future.

“Had an absolutely wonderful time here! The place was very clean, cosy and well equipped 🙂 Very easy to get out of the town for walks in the beautiful countryside and a lovely place to come back to after a day of hiking. Can only recommend staying here! Thanks for everything!”

Great flat with all necessary amenities and a fully equipped kitchen. Fantastic location. The only issue is the parking, which I gather is not the owner’s fault but is a real issue to work around.

Great location in Dartmouth with all things to do a short walk away. Lot of pubs and restaurants nearby. There is a lovely view from the apartment and the facilities are good. Very responsive customer service with helpful recommendations for food/local attractions. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful getaway. Also dog friendly which was a big part of our choice. The complimentary parking permit …

Excellent value for money for a short break to our mum’s birthplace Devon. Lodge was very comfortable with everything you need. Fab views and peaceful setting. Great selection of restaurants in Dartmouth. Would recommend Rockfish for fresh seafood and trips to both Blackpool and Slapton Sands which was the location of the tragic Exercise Tiger practice for D-Day landings. We will be back to continue the journey of o…
