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…

Fantastic flat – absolutely stunning views, could have spent the entire stay staring out of that fabulous window. Great vibe to the whole property, really well thought out layout. Great location, so close to town and particularly Bayards Cove, everything is in walking distance. A fabulous find and a great stay was had by all! Would definitely recommend this stunning property, even in the depths of winter it would be…

A beautiful place to stay if you are coming to Dartmouth. The home has amazing views, it’s a great space and very clean and tidy. It had everything you needed, very quiet and all round lovely! Along side this, check in was very easy! Although parking is a little limited, Paul was so helpful and responsive throughout the booking and we found parking quickly and just by the house! Would definitely stay here again!

Solstice is a lovely, bright and spacious place to stay. It is in the most wonderful location with beautiful views to keep you happy even on the rainiest of days, and is a perfect base for pottering into Dartmouth or enjoying a walk along the coastal path. I very much hope to stay there again!

Was a great house for a family get together .Including small children . Lots of different spaces but not too big . Very well appointed with everything we needed . Lovely location . Quiet and rural but near enough to a good road to get places . Various members of the party went running and we all walked to the pub in Halwell . I can’t think of any thing negative.

“The most immaculate holiday home we have ever been to. The accommodation was absolutely spotless! We arrived in torrential February rain but were very lucky enough to park a few meters away due to no parking restrictions out of season. We were instantly cheered up when we entered the property, which is even more beautiful than the photographs in the listing. We also very much appreciated the milk and bottle of wine…

We had an amazing stay at Stargazy! The property is absolutely gorgeous and the views of the sea and Burgh Island were stunning. The attention to detail was so special and we loved the hamper full of tea, coffee, bread, milk and butter. The ‘Stargazy Arms’ was definitely a highlight and we really enjoyed having a BBQ and drinks on the top deck. I would highly recommend booking this property, you will not be disappoi…

A beautiful place in lovely surroundings, very spacious and good instructions. There are lots of very narrow lanes around the area so be prepared for lots of reversing!
