Reviews
An exceptional place
Connor
An exceptional place with a view that we sat and looked out at for hours. We had both rain and shine, and each were equally as enjoyable at this place. Can’t recommend more and will definitely be back
Great location in Dartmouth
Alistair
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 is ideal and allows you to park nearby and central to Dartmouth.
Loved the Captains Cabin
Sophie
We absolutely loved the Captains Cabin! We would definitely stay again. It was so quirky and the views were fantastic from the balcony! Paul was really responsive every time we pinged a message over… couldn’t fault him at all. We will and already have recommended the Captains Cabin to our friends and family!
Amazing view

Wonderful views from top floor characterful accommodation. Walking distance to harbour and choice of great venues. Over a fabulous cafe/restaurant serving delicious breakfast. Hope to be back very soon.
Great Stay
Kevin
We had a marvellous few days in Dartmouth. The Captains Cabin was queerly and had views to die for. Paul was a great host and responded promptly to messages. The cafe made breakfast easy and lived up to the reviews. Highly recommend the stay to anyone wanting something a bit different
Extended my stay!
Paul
Thoroughly enjoyable stay , so good I extended my stay. Location is perfect with great views and of course just above the the renowned Alf Resco cafe. I look forward to staying here again.
Fantastic
Fiona
"Absolutely amazing place - such a unique and beautiful place to stay. The Captain's Cabin exceeded our expectations. The bonus was being able to go downstairs into Alf-Rescos cafe and have wonderful breakfasts from 7am - which meant we could set off early on our walks. I'd really recommend this place. It's fabulous. The host was extremely helpful and responsive. A five star review from us and we can't wait to go back. Thank you".
Just the perfect spot
Duncan
"Just the perfect spot in Dartmouth. Amazing views of the Dart & had everything we needed for a weekend break. Located right in the heart of town close to some lovely restaurants & pubs. Paul was helpful throughout & the check in procedure was very smooth. The Cabin sits atop a lovely cafe where you can pick up pastries & coffee in the morning in a matter of seconds! We both said we wished we could have stayed longer so we will almost certainly be back!"
Wish we stayed longer
Alex
"We stayed in the Cabin for a few nights, and it was perfect. We wish we could have stayed longer but will definitely be returning. Everything was clean and cozy, with fresh linens, breathtaking views, and a warm atmosphere that felt like home. Its central location made it easy to enjoy great coffee and fantastic breakfast just downstairs, plus we could walk to incredible restaurants. My partner loved exploring the nearby galleries and boutiques. Parking was easy, and having a permit for the nearby lot was a huge help. Paul provided excellent communication, flexible check-in, and made sure our trip ran smoothly despite a minor hiccup on our end. It was truly brilliant, and we can’t wait to come back".
Absolutely perfect
Pippa
"Absolutely perfect for a long weekend (or even longer!) - had everything we could have needed and more! Just perfect, and what a beautiful setting. Thank you for having us, we will be back!"
Very Quirky
Dimitrios
"Very quirky and interesting place to stay, really nice location in the heart of Dartmouth. Alf Resco breakfast bar below was an amazing place to get a bite to eat as well. I would definitely recommend."
Great place
Rulande
"This is a characterful, quaint studio apartment, at the very top of a house right in the heart of Dartmouth, above a bustling and delicious café. The views across the estuary are unrivalled. The furnishings are characterful, the kitchen basic but does the job for a simple meal and ideal for a sunset drink and nibbles on the little balcony which is in the best possible place".
