The photos of this place don’t actually do it justice! Such a beautiful home with the most incredible views. We had to park in the main car park and then walk to the house which I’m sure would have been less stressful if we didn’t have a lot of bags, but we managed! We would honestly come and stay here again. Watching the boats from the top window was so peaceful!

“Wonderful location with beautiful views of the estuary. Spotless presentation, well equipped and comfortable property. We arrived by train as public car parking arrangements would be inconvenient.”

The place was a great space! The kitchen was clean and it was lovely to have a big dining area as well as a comfortable living room to relax in. Our dog loved the garden and you can see the harbour which was a bonus! Three comfy double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms to choose from. The street was quiet & plenty of space to park! Only tiny thing to note is that there wasn’t any welcome items like coffee/ milk/ butter or lo…

“This is a characterful, quaint studio apartment, at the very top of a house right in the heart of Dartmouth, above a bustling and delicious café. The views across the estuary are unrivalled. The furnishings are characterful, the kitchen basic but does the job for a simple meal and ideal for a sunset drink and nibbles on the little balcony which is in the best possible place”.

Great little cabin. Exceptionally clean and well appointed. Woke to bird song each day. Loved the log fire. Perfect if you want to get away from it all. It is a remote location and difficult to get about with the dreaded Devon lanes surrounding it, but if you want peace, you will find it here. Good luck finding the microwave and washing machine! It’s there….just not where you might expect!

“Such a perfect little place in the heart of Dartmouth. Very clean and tidy, had everything you need.
