The apartment was in a perfect location. It was clean, warm and well equipped. We found it helpful to have parking. Tracey put herself out to ensure that we could check in early; she greeted us, showed us how everything worked and gave us her contact details in case we had any problems during our stay. Tracey had put a lot of thought in to what guests may need so the apartment had an umbrella and a beach bag with to…

“The place was spacious, clean and well presented with everything we needed for a very enjoyable long weekend break with friends. The kitchen was well equipped allowing us to easily rustle up a cooked breakfast for six! The house is conveniently located close to the town centre with numerous pubs and restaurants all within a short walking distance. From the top deck there are stunning views across the town towards t…

The most beautiful property! The view from house was spectacular, the whole house was decorated beautifully. You couldn’t find a better spot up the River Dart to watch the boats go by and the sun rise. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We had a lovely stay in Dartmouth, the location is absolutely amazing we could walk in seconds to the lower ferry and the best part of town. No view parking or garden but that’s the compromise.

“Great stay! In great condition and as described. Paul was extremely proactive when we had some unavoidable issues and sorted these as quick as he could. Would definitely look at staying again for a family get together! Thank you!”

The accommodation was lovely, very clean, bigger than the photos suggest. The views are idillic. Tyhe beds were comfortable. The patio is a bonus, exp in Dartmouth which often doesn’t have outside space. Don’t be put off by the lack of allocated parking. With a little management of what is available publicly , we were able to park easily even in late June. We will definitely book again.

I had an amazing stay at this lodge! The home was clean, cozy, and exactly as described in the listing. The location was perfect – close to everything I needed but still quiet and relaxing. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, making check-in and check-out a breeze. I really appreciated that the host kindly allowed me a late check-out when I asked – thank you for that! The little touches like fresh towe…
