Hideaway Cottage is a delightful thatched cottage in the pretty village of Ringmore. Tastefully equipped with everything you need for your holiday. Local pub in walking distance with excellent food. A short drive to Bigbury beach and the iconic Burgh Island. A perfect holiday location I will definitely be coming again

“A beautiful house in spectacular surroundings. Perfect for our family celebration. Everything we needed for adults and children; well equipped kitchen, games room, comfy beds, lovely lounge and the most beautiful view from a large conservatory. Open the patio doors and it was like a painting or tv scene, great grounds for exploring. Loved the walled garden and a good bbq area. Perfect. Thank you.”

Fantastic place right on the estuary. Stunning views. It’s so cosy and very comfy beds. Feels like a secret cosy hideaway. We hope to come back!

We had a wonderful stay in the cabin. It had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend away. We had an amazing stay in the cabin, thank you! The cabin had everything we needed and the bottle of wine was a very nice surprise! Thank you for the flexibility with the check in and out times.

The Townhouse was nice, but a little cold. It was clean and well maintained. Not too far from Dartmouth shops and restaurants. Easy walk in, but a big climb back – good workout 😁.

Fantastic location and a beautiful sea view. Very comfortable beds and easy access to the beach and Start Bay Inn for food and drink. Great place to relax. Parking can be a bit of a juggle to get a free space but they do tend to turn over quickly so wasn’t a problem for us.

Great location in Dartmouth with all things to do a short walk away. Lot of pubs and restaurants nearby. There is a lovely view from the apartment and the facilities are good. Very responsive customer service with helpful recommendations for food/local attractions. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful getaway. Also dog friendly which was a big part of our choice. The complimentary parking permit …
