“A fabulous stay – the cottage is a good size with everything you need. Very very comfortable, lovely leather sofas and a wood burner for the evenings. Separate kitchen and eating area – 2 double bedrooms with classic bath in one and a shower room. High chairs and stair gates available. Very clean and warm. Parking for 2 cars – play area for kids – and very easy to get to local attractions and towns. One of the best…

The apartment was in a perfect location. It was clean, warm and well equipped. We found it helpful to have parking. Tracey put herself out to ensure that we could check in early; she greeted us, showed us how everything worked and gave us her contact details in case we had any problems during our stay. Tracey had put a lot of thought in to what guests may need so the apartment had an umbrella and a beach bag with to…

“The most perfect place to stay in Dartmouth for our group of 5! Beautiful spacious house, all the amenities you could need, comfy beds, beautiful garden and terrace with amazing views. The location is perfect as you have parking but also 5-10 minutes walk into the centre where you have many great pubs and restaurants. We will be back soon I’m sure!”

Great apartment in a superb location, everything within walking distance. Well appointed and was spotlessly clean. Excellent communication with the host throughout our stay. Lots of information available for recommendations for eating and visiting. Would highly recommend 5*

Solstice is a lovely house near to restaurants, with an amazing view and we’d certainly like to return. Clearer instructions for rubbish disposal would be useful, as the bins in the garage weren’t labelled. The property has lovely quality crockery and nice big towels! The stairs to the top floor are very steep, so not suitable for everyone.

The property is in a good location and it was easy to get inside with very clear instructions. The beds were really comfortable and rooms were of a good size. The rooms were very clean and well maintained and bathrooms were lovely. The kitchen and utensils were great, and a nearby co op allowed for ease of getting essentials such as tea and coffee. Only feedback would be we couldn’t find a hair dryer. Wish tea and c…
