Very nice, larger property. Very peaceful and yet only just off the A381. Great location for exploring Dartmouth, Totnes, Salcombe. Debbie and Richard are friendly hosts.

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 place was spacious, clean and well presented with everything we needed for a very enjoyable long weekend break with friends. The kitchen was well equipped allowing us to easily rustle up a cooked breakfast for six! The house is conveniently located close to the town centre with numerous pubs and restaurants all within a short walking distance. From the top deck there are stunning views across the town towards t…

“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 a wonderful few days during the heatwave in the cottage. Loved it all. the location is amazing, just a few steps to the beach where we enjoyed swimming in the sea. And right on the SW Coast Path.

Lovely, clean home with very comfortable beds. It’s located on a steep hill, but it offers beautiful views and is just a short, easy walk to the marina. We loved being so close to Dartmouth’s great boutique shops, cafes, and ice cream spots. Perfect for a family stay!

We loved the Boathouse and will definitely be returning! Beautiful location, the sea on the doorstep and lovely accommodation. Wished we could have stayed for longer, the pubs/restaurants are within walking distance and the food was amazing! My husband and son enjoyed sea swimming on several occasions then the 2 minute walk back to the accommodation was perfect! We enjoyed wine on the patio area and the view from th…

Pomeroy Cottage was perfect for our stay in Totnes. minutes across the lovely bridge over the Dart, the location enabled us to walk to the centre of town in minutes yet feel like we were living in a quiet enclave when we came home. We found the house attractive, clean and comfortable & the perfect base for visiting Dartmoor, Teignmouth and the English Riviera beaches.
