Enjoy a taste of seaside living during your stay in this charming three-storey 19th-century coastal property in the picturesque and ancient market town of Dartmouth. The laid-back open-plan living space with a bohemian edge is the perfect space for socialising with your small family or the other half after a day of delving into the history of the town, swimming in the sea and exploring the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Enter the ground floor to find a bright and comfortable open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with cheerful coloured decor. Snuggle up on the sofa in front of the flame-effect gas fire in the lounge. Next to this area is a stylish farmhouse-style kitchen with contemporary touches and a central wooden dining table with seating for four. Climb the cottage-style stairs to reach the first-floor twin bedroom and a family bathroom. The master double bedroom is on the second floor and boasts views across Dartmouth. Outside is a small bistro set for two to enjoy a refreshing drink in the fresh air.

In the months of May through to November why not attend one of the many events and festivals in the area like the Dartmouth Music Festival, Dartmouth Royal Regatta, Dartmouth Food Festival, Torbay Air Show, Teignmouth Air show, Brixham Pirate Festival, Devon County Show.

Just back from a wonderful week at The Little White house. What an absolutely beautiful house, hidden up a quaint little side street, we truly felt like we were in Italy. You will not be disappointed, the house has everything that you will need. We will definitely be returning.

A beautiful little cottage, right in the town. The double bed was super comfy - single duvets were absolutely fine and worked for us. Everything was perfect, spotlessly clean and really comfortable . Thank you for the biscuits and coffee pods!
