An amazing cosy, snug, warm, and beautifully renovated cottage. Spotlessly clean, we had everything we needed and more. Very well equipped, plenty of kitchen equipment, quality towels and linen. Great location, close to the centre of town, but very quiet. Weve stayed in a few other Dartmouth and Brixham properties, but this has been the best by farRead more. Thanks to Catherine and Robyn for sorting out an extra nights stay, as we couldnt drag ourselves away! Credit also to the cleaning team. Perfect! Hide

We just got back from a wonderful break in Dartmouth. The home was lovely, very clean and cosy and a short walk to the town and harbour downhill. On the way up from the town there are two 33% angle roads to walk up. All in all a lovely cottage and Dartmouth as always is beautiful

The cottage itself and the equipment/facilities were good. However unfortunately we had to cut our holiday short due to an infestation of flys in the cottage. Despite efforts to remove them, they kept coming back and multiplying and made our stay quite unpleasant as we were unable to cook and make the most of the time in the cottage. Parking wasRead more on an extremely steep hill and was limited, which was quite stressful.

Lovely cottage. Quite compact but very tastefully decorated. The location was perfect , literally a few minutes walk into Dartmouth itself. Be aware though, the walk uphill coming back is very steep. Parking was ok but pot luck whether you could park right outside the property. We always found a space close by though. One particular thing to mentioRead moren was the shower. It was superb. You had the choice of the massive rain shower or handheld. The water pressure was amazing. We had a fantastic week. Hide

Really pretty house up a very steep hill so we earned our fish & chip suppers! A little bit of extra storage upstairs would have been great but we really loved the house, cozy & warm and we just love Dartmouth!

Perfect cottage for 4 people to enjoy time I. Dartmouth. Personally feel it would be a squeeze for 6 though. Great location, loved the open plan living space. Owner very helpful and responsive.
