Super! it was as it said in the tin! So homely, light, superbly kitted out. the welcome box was a lovely touch, thanks location could not have been any better for us. very central for getting around…buses, trains, ferry (we didn’t have a car). thanks Paul & team for a super week.

“We had a lovely break at the cabin. Spotlessly clean on arrival and milk left in the fridge. Great base from which to explore the area and visit Salcombe and Dartmouth. Will definitely return”.

Our second time at Mewstone. New owner has kept the same high standards. Absolutely fantastic location and such a restful view. One piece of advice, if the shared pool is important to you (it wasn’t to us) check it’s available and ready. That said this is a high quality property and we love it. Two parking spaces and no more than a couple of minutes walk into Dartmouth town centre what’s not to love.

This place was beautiful with a lovely kitchen and living area. We loved sitting outside in the garden and enjoying the sunshine in the garden. The recommendedations for local restaurants and places to visit were really helpful

We had a great few days over the New Year. The location was perfect for us as it was easy to get into the town centre and also easy to get onto the coastal path for a walk by the sea. The views from the apartment are amazing

What a great place to stay! Made a weekend away with 4 under 6s so much easier. Loved the table tennis and games room not to mention the super garden for football and runaround games. All rooms immaculate and well appointed. The huge living space is such an advantage with all those comfy sofas. All that and only an 8 minute walk to The Village Inn. What’s not to love! We will definitely go back.

A great location with fantastic sea views. We didn’t have the weather for it but the rear garden and bar would be great in the warmer weather. The house was clean and well equipped, comfortable and homely.

“Slice of heaven. The pictures and all the positive reviews aren’t even close to what you will experience once you step in to the property. Fully equipped – basics easily acquired from a local co-op down the road. Three levels of views for guests to enjoy – picturesque, panoramic, stunning.”
