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.

Fantastic cottage in great location in beautiful Dartmouth. We had no problem finding spaces to park in the Mayor's Avenue Car Park.

It is difficult to write a review for this property. It is in a perfect location but there are a few things that spoiled our stay. The thin single duvets on the double bed were a problem and several lights had bulbs that didnt work. The bathroom had only a small amount of toilet paper and half empty bottle of bubble bath was left. All in all we haRead mored a lovely week and it is clearly a much loved cottage but we were disappointed by the lack of attention to detail. Sadly despite the perfect location, we would not say again. Hide

I really enjoyed my week here - the location was helpful being near the shops and harbour but was also very quiet being tucked back from the roads. It was clean with clear instructions for heating, water, etc. I'll be back sometime to explore the town more!

The Little white House is in a perfect location in Dartmouth, a very short walk into town where there are lots of great shops, pubs and restaurants. The house is very comfortable with everything you need for your stay provided. Th linen is always very good, the beds comfortable and the bath is very nice, great for a long soak after a day on the RivRead moreer Dart! Hide

Location of the property was much more central than we thought, so a welcome surprise. Top bedroom was lovely watching the nesting seagulls, apart from the bed was little small and not overly comfy. The twin beds were better. Kitchen had more equipment than I have at home . All round lovely property and would definitely return

The one problem we had was when arriving in Dartmouth it was dark, the art gallery mentioned to locate to find the property has sadly closed so that reference point was gone, because we know Dartmouth quiet well we knew where the gallery used to be located so that was a bonus for us. However also the directions said look for the yellow house with bRead morelue windows not really feasible in the dark it didnt show up, luckily we took a guess and went up some little steps and were successful in locating the house, but maybe you could update directions and mention and the bottom of the little steps on the right hand side it says numbers 18 to 24 and thats how we found it.
