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…

We had a lovely stay at The Apartment in Dartmouth. Everything was spotless, kitchen had everything you would need. Great location, everything is within walking distance & great places to eat. Would recommend taking the little boat that takes you to the castle & back. Definitely would stay again as also a great base to visit other places along the south Devon coast.

What a great place to stay! Made a weekend away with 4 under 6s so much easier. Loved the table tennis and games room not to mention the super garden for football and runaround games. All rooms immaculate and well appointed. The huge living space is such an advantage with all those comfy sofas. All that and only an 8 minute walk to The Village Inn. What’s not to love! We will definitely go back.

A charming comfortable Edwardian house within easy walking distance to Dartmouth and a marvellous view to watch the ‘ Lower Ferry’ working, very relaxing. There is also a garage which is extremely convenient as parking in Dartmouth is very restricted. The house was well equipped, clean & comfortable. In all a delightful place to stay.

This is a really nicely appointed flat with lovely bathrooms in a good location. A bonus was the proximity of the bus stop so we could get a bus to and from Dartmouth (and elsewhere if we’d wanted) without having to worry about parking. We had poor weather but had it been sunny the two balconies would have been delightful. An extremely pleasant stay.
