For just the two of us this was perfect. Ground floor flat. Well lit. Nice open plan kitchen. Very close to the centre of town.

What a fabulous few days we’ve had at Stargazy over Christmas. The location was perfect, off the beaten track, but within reach of pubs/shops etc. The house itself is beautiful with views of the beach and ocean, a wonderful backdrop for Christmas dinner it has to be said. Paul was a fantastic host, always responsive, leaving a bottle of bubbly for our arrival and decorating the lounge with a lovely tree.

Wonderful stay in Dartmouth – location of the flat is perfect, close enough to everything you need but quieter than the centre. Views are amazing and the property is very well equipped.

Lovely peaceful location, loved the secure little private courtyard at the front, we could sit leave the door open so the dog could come and go freely, the grassy area a few yards away was also great for the dog to explore.

The most beautiful property! The view from house was spectacular, the whole house was decorated beautifully. You couldn’t find a better spot up the River Dart to watch the boats go by and the sun rise. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Lovely property, well presented and absolutely perfect for 2 families / 8 of us and the dog. Lovely communal space. Lovely outdoor space for dining and enjoying the sunny Devon weather. Short drive from the beach.

Exceptional place to stay, tucked away down the most Devon of Devon lanes, The Cabin has it all. We had a fantastic time in one of our favourite places on the planet – easy to get to the sea, and the moor – plus the hosts have thought of everything. Loved it.

“Beautiful house and it had all we needed for a friends’ weekend away – everything we possibly thought of was there in the kitchen, lovely kitchenware, big table for communal meals, cosy lounge space. Quick walk to town and a shop and pub nearby. Will definitely book again”.
