We loved The Captain’s Cabin! The furnishings really did make us think we were staying on a boat. Breakfast at Alf Fresco was an added bonus. A perfect base for our weekend walking the coast path.

Had a wonderful stay at this place in Dartmouth. Location was the standout. 2 minute walk to shops and restaurants, 5 minutes to parking and to the waterfront. Clean, well-stocked, and great communication from Paul. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Stunning location. The view is beautiful and so, so peaceful. Friendly cats, ducks, pigs, cows and sheep made this place extra special. Accommodation is clean, modern, comfortable and well equipped. Enjoyed complimentary Prosecco and coffee – thank you! So close to Slapton sands and Blackpool sands which are both beautiful. Approx 30mins to Salcombe which was holding their annual regatta during our visit so had lots…

Beautiful well presented and comfortable accommodation. Quiet & peaceful location. Only downside was the parking but that goes for most of Dartmouth. Loved our time there. Highly recommended.

We had three families in the house, 6 adults and 7 children and there was plenty of space for us all to not feel on top of each other. Kitchen had plenty of pots and pans to cook and two large dining tables. The house is functional albeit a little tired but was clean and tidy. The only two little niggles i…

Had a wonderful stay at Galions Quay! The photos don’t do it justice, stunning views on the river, perfect for a rainy getaway. Perfect for 2 families, us and our baby plus our friends and their 2 kids 4&7. Walkable into town with beautiful views of the river. Paul was informative and helpful and we were able to hire a high chair and travel cot for bub. The renovations next door were not an issue for us we didn’t he…

A beautiful apartment with lovely views across the estuary. The walk from the town is about 10mins and fine without a lot to carry. It’s quite a long incline. Not steep though. And it’s definitely worth it when you get there! Super comfortable and the photos don’t do it justice! We had a great stay and would certainly book it again. The park and ride is very efficient and we left the car there and used the many mode…
