A fabulous house in a beautiful location. It really did have a luxury feel. A very well stocked kitchen with everything you would need for cooking your own meals. Very comfortable beds and good showers. Our favourite thing was the balcony and the gorgeous view across the rooftops of Dartmouth down to the boats on the front. Excellent location, just a few minutes walk down into the town and front. Best thing is can s…

We stayed here for 2 nights at the start of March & had a wonderful stay. The descriptions and pictures do not do this house justice & the master bedroom and outside seating even had a sea view! We travelled as a girl group of friends but all agreed we would be back with our partners and families.

The property was perfect for us and our two friends. Beautiful shared space and beautiful harbour views, two good bedrooms – one with stunning views and the other with good en-suite. Location also perfect as walkable to ferry, steam train station and local pubs. (Steepish hill and steps so as described not good for restricted mobility.)

“Very nice stay. Place was lovely and clean, instructions from Paul were easy to enter and leave property On a quiet road about 15 minute walk from the town, going in is easy as its downhill back is a bit harder as it eventually becomes quite steep. If you dont want to walk the number 90 bus will take you up the hill from the center for £2 per adult! If your reasonably fit though its fine to walk. Garden is on a ste…

We had a wonderful stay in the cabin. It had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend away. We had an amazing stay in the cabin, thank you! The cabin had everything we needed and the bottle of wine was a very nice surprise! Thank you for the flexibility with the check in and out times.

We had a lovely stay in Dartmouth, the location is absolutely amazing we could walk in seconds to the lower ferry and the best part of town. No view parking or garden but that’s the compromise.

Myself and family (4 adults, 2 children) thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night break here over the Christmas period. It was beautifully presented and decorated throughout, especially the coastal Christmas vibe in the living room. The views from the property were outstanding and to be so close to the beach is a real plus. Generous welcome goodies too. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to others, and hopefully we w…
