“We had a wonderful stay at Tremorvah, a lovely flat in such a tranquil and beautiful location. Must be one of the best views in Dartmouth! The flat is a short walk from the town centre and also walking distance from the Castle by the estuary and the little tea rooms (very friendly). A beautiful space, stylish interior design, a well equipped kitchen, very spacious master bedroom, all rooms with the same lovely view…

The room was comfy, central to everything and was the perfect base for us to explore Dartmouth. The best way to start our day was going downstairs for breakfast in Cafe Alf Resco – delicious!! Thank you!!

We had a lovely stay at this property in Dartmouth, the house was an ideal place for our family, being close to the town and having its own parking. The house itself was spacious and comfortable, the beds were really comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped.

I highly recommend this place — truly a home away from home. The apartment is beautifully designed and exceptionally clean, with thoughtful attention to every detail. The bedding and pillows offer a luxurious, hotel-like feel, and the kitchen is well-equipped with high-quality utensils and appliances. We especially appreciated the lovely welcome pack, which included tea, coffee, sugar, jam — and even toys for th…

I spent the weekend with friends at a modern luxury property in Dartmouth, set right on the river within a striking new building, and it was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we arrived, the quality and attention to detail were evident. The architecture is contemporary yet beautifully in keeping with Dartmouth’s coastal elegance, with large glass panels framing uninterrupted views across the river. Watc…
