Fabulous setting right by the beach. Stargazy was very well equipped. Especially the kitchen. Beds, bathrooms and lounge were excellent. Added bonus was lots of board games to play. Outside bar and bbq area was fun with wonderful views. Even managed a bbq as the weather was very good. Would definitely say again.

Location is excellent but the room was smaller than I anticipated. I am a larger man and couldn’t get into the gap in the shower. Also the room was very warm. Just letting larger people know that maybe one of the other rooms in the property would be better suited. Breakfast in the cafe downstairs was superb (one of the reasons I can’t get in the shower!).

We had a wonderful stay in the cabin. It had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend away. We had an amazing stay in the cabin, thank you! The cabin had everything we needed and the bottle of wine was a very nice surprise! Thank you for the flexibility with the check in and out times.

Great place to stay to explore Dartmouth and the whole of south hams. Hot tub is a great addition and golfers wandering by provided entertainment all day long! Can recommend the Sportsmans arms for dinner and the old inn, also worth going to Dittisham and getting the ferry over to greenway! Fantastic stay and would come again!

Heywood was a lovely, comfortable and homely place to stay. Ideally situated in the center of Dartmouth so everything was easily accessible. The parking permit for the local car park was extremely useful. Comfortable bed, good shower and a nice homely environment. We shall be back.

Excellent place to stay right in the heart of Dartmouth. Easy access to all the town centre has to offer without the usual climb up a big hill. Clean and tidy, great for couple with the bath and good shower with plenty of storage. Bed was comfy. Would recommend to others.
