Wow. What a very special place this is. For a start it’s in a brilliant position overlooking the river in lovely Dartmouth. But there’s more to it than that – the house itself has been finished and furnished to a very high standard of both comfort and amenities. Everything worked easily and as you would expect. The layout is stylish and designed to make the most of all the views – and I’m sure the fire and downstair…

Dartmouth is a fantastic place to visit wi…

Great location , a minute walk to see the harbour. Opposite from the lower ferry crossing and would reccommend the walk to Blackpool Sands via Dartmouth Castle and South West Coastal Path. We caught the No 93 bus back into Dartmouth after lunch on the beach. Accommodation had everything you would expect.

Had a wonderful stay at this place in Dartmouth. Location was the standout. 2 minute walk to shops and restaurants, 5 minutes to parking and to the waterfront. Clean, well-stocked, and great communication from Paul. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

The property is spotlessly clean and will decorated, with everything you need for a great stay away from home, including smart TV and radio for quiet nights in. It’s ideally situated just a short stroll from the high street with lots of shops including an excellent butchers, cafes, pubs, etc. There’s also a supermarket only 5 minutes walk away. I would highly recommend this property, and I’m already planning on retu…

We had such a lovely time at this house. The setting is breathtaking. The location is great. We hiked to both beaches, and to the small cove that is not accessible by cars. Our kids had a blast. Highly recommend.
