We have just returned from a 4 night break at Cedar House and absolutely loved it. The house was absolutely spotless and had every single thing you could wish for. It was lovely and cozy and really spacious and we cannot recommend it highly enough. Location wise it was perfect for local sightseeing and beaches and the Italian restaurant that’s a minute walk away was amazing. Paul was really responsive and all his in…

“We were looking for beach front and this was certainly that. An idyllic home in a beautiful location. Amazing to hear the sea all the time. There is a local coffee shop, chip shop restaurant/ takeaway. The nearby farm shop was a great find. This home in a beautiful location was just perfect to explore surrounding south Devon coastal walks and beaches”.

With accommodation on four levels each one of which has wonderful views over the harbour it is a fabulous place to spend time. Well equipped and nicely furnished, with comfortable beds and even a woodburner, a nice selection of books and magazines, it’s a perfect holiday home rain or shine. We enjoyed the terrace garden too. The location is great being right above the town centre but the steep steps leading up to th…

“We stayed at ‘The Cabin’ for 5 nights & by the end we didn’t want to leave – We wished we had booked the spot up for longer!! The cabin is beautifully nestled amongst the trees so you are surrounded by nature & can hear the constant flow of the nearby river! Amazing place to get away from it all & relax. The weather during our stay was cold & wet, but thanks to the wood burner in the lounge it was so cozy inside! P…

This stunning apartment with breathtaking views is such an ideal place to stay in the heart of Dartmouth. Blow away with the apartment and the views over the river. The apartment itself is finished to a high end luxury finish.

Very spacious townhouse, extremely well equipped kitchen. Everything was clean and the beds were comfortable with lovely white bedding. Very convenient location above the town in Dartmouth, but it is a fair walk down down the hill and then back up again. The area was quiet and it was great to have parking outside the house. The parking directly in front of the house will only take a small car but then there is a spa…
