We had an amazing few days at dart loft … Brilliant location close to everything you might need. Paul was immediately on hand to help out with an issue we had, even though it was a Sunday, which we greatly appreciated. All in all brilliant & would definitely stay here again l!

We stayed at Trafalgar Cottage for the weekend in August. The house is furnished to a very high standard, extremely tastefully decorated, but what elevates it are the amazing views from literally every room and the gorgeous terrace where we say for hours just watching the boats and the world go by. If you are considering staying here as two couples or a family, don’t hesitate, you won’t be disappointed.

A great house for a un fussy large family stay… well equipped, plenty of rooms for all our needs (eating, playing games and chilling and plenty of loos!) Very pretty surroundings and not too far (if you drive!) from the lovely towns of Totnes and Dartmouth.

We had the best week at this place and absolutely loved Dartmouth. It was spacious, comfortable, clean, well equipped and has a phenomenal outdoor space with a phenomenal view! Reaching the place by car and sorting out parking was a bit difficult as we had to move our car around each day in order to avoid getting a ticket, but once you’ve worked it out it’s all good. The place itself is perfect and Paul was a helpfu…

Lovely peaceful location, loved the secure little private courtyard at the front, we could sit leave the door open so the dog could come and go freely, the grassy area a few yards away was also great for the dog to explore. Cottage was clean and tidy and beds were very comfy. Seemed to have everything you need although we didn’t do any cooking during our stay. One thing to be aware of is that one of the roads to acc…

I stayed in Dart Lookout for 8 days and it really is a sanctuary and a place to relax and watch the world go by. Birds, cruise ships, staff from the hotel below, next door’s dog – I watched and enjoyed them all from the window seat of dreams that is the best part of this house. The big bed follows in close second – super comfortable with lovely bedding. Open the curtains in the morning and watch the sun come up over…

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cabin. It was well equipped with everything you need. The beds were comfortable and everyone slept well. The location is peaceful and great for exploring local beaches, making it a good base for days out. Communication throughout the booking process and with any queries about the property was prompt and helpful, which was really appreciated. Overall, we’d happily stay again. Th…
