A gorgeous stay between all the places worth visiting in South Devon, and a 20 minute drive from the lovely town of Totnes. Really peaceful, and a beautifully restored building. Best suited to those with a car as it is remote. Highly recommended.

Stunning views by the river. Beautiful house with lots of room to sit and enjoy the views. Well appointed kitchen with Nespresso coffee machine.

Very short walk into town to restock groceries ( a great M&S in town) wander the beautiful streets or go out to one of the many lovely restaurants. W…

Perfect if you need a bunk room to crash in the centre of Dartmouth. Ideal for sailors not wanting to stay on board, or for anyone wanting to enjoy the delights of Dartmouth. It is compact, but perfectly functional and perfectly located. Great breakfasts included downstairs at the wonderful Cafe Alfresco.
