Amazing weekend stay for my mums 60th birthday! The accommodation was exactly as pictured, very clean and came with lots of homely extras that you don’t always get! Instructions and communication all very clear! 5 minute drive down into the beautiful town of Dartmouth, with lovely places to eat or just a general stunning walk around. We added the hot tub and it was just perfect!

Our third stay and always spotlessly clean and welcoming. It is in a quiet area but still within a short walk to town with the added bonus of a parking permit. Tracey is extremely helpful. Highly recommended.

We loved the Boathouse and will definitely be returning! Beautiful location, the sea on the doorstep and lovely accommodation.

A beautiful place to stay if you are coming to Dartmouth. The home has amazing views, it’s a great space and very clean and tidy. It had everything you needed, very quiet and all round lovely! Along side this, check in was very easy! Although parking is a little limited, Paul was so helpful and responsive throughout the booking and we found parking quickly and just by the house! Would definitely stay here again!

Cedar house was absolutely perfect. We visited as a family of 8, 6 adults and 2 small children. The house was absolutely spotless, well furnished and had everything we needed. We genuinely could not have been happier with our stay, I would highly recommend.

My family and I had a fantastic time. The house and location are stunning. Beautifully decorated and furnished. The views are amazing. And Ted, our dog, loved walking to the castle and fort above. Perfect!
