We had a wonderful week at Stargazy. Amazing location, right on the beach. Beautiful views, and lovely outside space. The house itself was comfortable and well appointed – including a very well kitted-out kitchen. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay! The accommodation was perfect for a long weekend in Devon. Literally 8 min drive outside of Dartmouth. The kids particularly loved the hot tub after spending the day out exploring. Thank you so much for having us!

We had a wonderful stay in this amazing home with the most beautiful surroundings overlooking the water and the steam train and is within walking distance of the shops. The house more than met expectations. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed. WiFi is installed and there are also a lot of games to entertain yourself with. It has our highest recommendations. We’d love to come back another day.

The bathroom was like a tardis with a huge shower & served its purpose for our stay!”

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely apartment. It was spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, and had a fantastic view — a perfect place to relax and enjoy Dartmouth. The host was excellent, keeping us well informed throughout and making everything easy from start to finish.
