The property is in a good location and it was easy to get inside with very clear instructions. The beds were really comfortable and rooms were of a good size.

Only feedback would be we couldn’t find a hair dryer. Wish tea and c…

Our stay was a perfect base for a family holiday. The nearness of the beach a definite asset especially when you have a 3 year old with you! You could easily pop back if something had been forgotten.

This enabled the extended family to gather for evening meal…

A spacious, clean house in a great location. The garden is lovely too and a sun trap. It is very peaceful despite a close location to town. You can walk from the house to the harbour very quickly. Comfortable beds. A great stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Cedar house! The accommodation was clean, tidy with thoughtful extras. We loved the building itself there was lots of character with all the oak beams and the unique layout. Wonderful location too being so close to beautiful Dartmouth which was foodie heaven and the lovely hidden gem- Blackrock Sands! Very enjoyable and relaxing stay, thank you 🤩

Just got back from an amazing stay at 8 Dartmouth Grove. Views were simply amazing, had a lovely sunrise in the morning to enjoy. The lodge is finished to a high standard which made it an enjoyable place to unwind and relax. The hot tub was also a lovely luxury which should definitely be booked. Hosts very responsive and accommodating – already looking to book again for next year.
