The most amazing and charming cottage. We had the best time staying at Cider Cottage for Christmas with our two children. The cottage was clean, tidy, well equipped with all cooking utensils and a Christmas tree was even provided, which was a lovely touch. The only small improvement we would suggest is to have a full pack of logs on arrival as we were only left with three and these were burnt in an hour or two with…

We had a lovely holiday in this amazing house, all very high quality. Brilliant location and enjoyed sitting on the balconies watching over the river.

Wow, Spindrift was everything we could have wished for and more, one of the best Air BnBs we have ever stayed in! The property has everything you could possibly wish for and the location is perfect. We have no doubt we will be returning in the future.

The house definitely had the wow factor. It is in a stunning location looking down the estuary to Dartmouth. The house is beautifully presented, and has everything you could possibly need for your stay. There was plenty of parking, and walking into Dartmouth was an easy stroll. Paul was so helpful answering all our queries and was very responsive. I would thoroughly recommend a stay at the beautiful property.

The location couldn’t have been better – it was absolutely ideal. We were lucky enough to find free parking spaces most of the time, which was a real bonus. The local pub is lovely, serving fantastic food with friendly staff, and they also have the most delic…

The location is quite unique and looking onto the sea is very special. Even more special is the close proximity to the sea, so you can go to bed listening to the waves and wake up to them. Gorgeous
