“Very quiet, great surroundings and view. the cows are great company and fun to watch , plus they love watching you sitting there, funny to watch them scratching themselves on the wall. nice and private seating to relax, watch the Swallows flying in and around the buildings”.

We have just spent the most wonderful long weekend at Steppes. It is the most wonderful house with an amazing view which was perfect for a big family get together. Coffee on the deck in the morning sunshine, looking at everything going on in the harbour and the view out to see was just incredible. Thank you for letting us enjoy this wonderful house.

A very comfortable and spotlessly clean apartment right in the centre of Dartmouth. Two bathrooms which was a bonus and a responsive host. Parking was available on the road outside the apartment.

We loved the Boathouse and will definitely be returning! Beautiful location, the sea on the doorstep and lovely accommodation. Wished we could have stayed for longer, the pubs/restaurants are within walking distance and the food was amazing!

Stargazy was just as fantastic as it looks in the photos. it’s extremely well-equipped and had everything we needed. Everything was clean and comfy. What really stood out was the amazing location, and stunning views across the front of the house. I had a lovely birthday weekend here and would highly recommend.
