Perfect location and parking permit invaluable in Dartmouth! we enjoy the church bells but others may not. beds and linen comfy,very clean. lots of kitchen equipment. Our third time there - last time previously 10 years ago. we would stay again as so handyfor town and river. If you want a fire in the wood burner buy logs on the way- none in DartmouRead moreth and none in house. Be aware, people with mobility problems may find the stairs tricky. Hide

Lovely, well equipped cottage in the heart of Dartmouth. Very homely and comfortable and an easy walk to explore all Dartmouth's shops, parks, restaurants etc. We were pleased to find a highchair and stair gates provided (the cottage has fairly steep, winding stairs), and even some games to entertain the children. The Old Bakery was a great base Read morefor our large family group, and we really enjoyed our stay. Hide

A lovely week spent in the Old Bakery in the heart of the beautiful town of Dartmouth. The location was perfect for exploring the town. Lots to do and lots of places to eat and drink. Would recommend a day at the stunning Blackpool Sands when the weather permits. Would love to return in the future.
