We had a wonderful stay at Higher Venice – a stunning, spacious country house ideal for a large family gathering. Set in the beautiful Devon countryside, the surroundings are peaceful and picturesque, with a lovely garden perfect for both relaxation and family fun. The house is full of charm and well-equipped with everything we needed. Its location is perfect – secluded and tranquil, yet just a short drive from Dart…

Wow, Spindrift was everything we could have wished for and more, one of the best Air BnBs we have ever stayed in! The property has everything you could possibly wish for and the location is perfect. We have no doubt we will be returning in the future.

We’ve visited this property several times. The view from the roof terrace is wonderful especially if the weather is good. The living and bedroom accommodation is comfortable. The house is very close to the town with all it’s lovely restaurants and shops. Definitely recommend this property.

“Oh wow, this place is a gem! Both the actual cottage but also location, the village, takeaway options, a seal swimming almost under the window a few times a day….just beautiful”.

We had a wonderful few days here. It was very clean & well equipped & and easy walk into the centre of Dartmouth. The car parking space was an added bonus. Recommend 100% although the steep steps would be a challenge for v young children or those with mobility issues but that is explained in the listing. Would definitely book again if return to beautiful Dartmouth.

Incredible views. Steps to the beach are a stones throw away, it was the perfect location for our beach and sea loving family. We will be back without the kids next time!

An exceptional place with a view that we sat and looked out at for hours. We had both rain and shine, and each were equally as enjoyable at this place. Can’t recommend more and will definitely be back
