Incredible views. Steps to the beach are a stones throw away, it was the perfect location for our beach and sea loving family. We will be back without the kids next time!

This apartment was absolute heaven! my husband and I had the best time with our 9 month old baby – Paul was so helpful with our stay – there was even a Christmas tree up which was so lovely ❤️ The apartment had comfy beds, great kitchen and one of the best views of Dartmouth overlooking the river and the mouth of the ocean. Walk to town is under 5 mins, and not too steep which was a real help with the pram! such a c…

Pictures don’t do it justice! Beautifully decorated – attention to detail in every room. Thoughtful touches provided. Went as a family of 7 plus dog and plenty of room for us all to sit & not be on top of each other. Walking distance to the beach & the Italian just by the house is amazing – highly recommend. Dartmouth park & ride is about 10 min easy drive away making a lovely day out. Loved our stay & hope to retur…

Fantastic stay here for my parents’ Christmas present. Beautifully kept property, that accommodated us all perfectly. Plenty of space for 7 adults to all live, socialise and enjoy. Couldn’t find a single fault and would recommended very highly. Would happily return again and again, and likely will. Thanks again!

We escaped to the beautiful 9 Riverside Wharf for a Mother’s Day weekend with kids ranging from 5-8, and parents in their 70’s. What a great time we had! The views of the apartment were amazing, and so well equipped! The walk to the ferry and into Dartmouth was the perfect length managed easily by age 5-75 . Highly reccommend this beautiful apartment for a coastal escape!! Thanks so much for helping us make great me…

Excellent place to stay right in the heart of Dartmouth. Easy access to all the town centre has to offer without the usual climb up a big hill. Clean and tidy, great for couple with the bath and good shower with plenty of storage. Bed was comfy. Would recommend to others.
