Most property in this area looks across the river presenting either a view of Kingswear or Dartmouth. This property is near Dartmouth Castle and looks up river providing a spectacular view of both and from three floors! Ideal for watching the world go by, or as happened on our last night, watch a seal literally climb aboard a rib…couldn’t make it up. The location does mean a 20+ minute walk into town (the road being…

The kitchen facilities were excellent an air fryer washer dryer. Ample f…

A few things to mention however – parking is not on site. We had to find public long stay car parks aro…

The owner was incredibly helpful, accommodating and very friendly too. We thought the apartment had been thoughtfully designed to a high spec and everything was as described which resulted in a very enjoyable and comfortable few days away. Dartmouth is a fantastic place to visit wi…

We had an amazing stay at Stargazy . We stayed for three nights and the property was exactly as described and pictured. It’s a stunning location, moments away from Bigbury beach, and the Airbnb was stunning. It had beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The outdoor barbecue space was particularly wonderful as was the living room with its panoramic glass sliding doors facing out to …
