What an amazing apartment! The views are stunning. The beds were great and everything was spotless. Long stay parking during the day was a bit tricky as the road to Warfleet is shut so it’s a long drive round but not a major problem for us. We had a brilliant stay and Paul was very helpful and responsive.

Fantastic trip, and wonderful accommodation. The river views kept us entertained when the stormy weather stopped us getting outside. Would highly recommend.

The photo’s don’t quite match the listing – because, when you arrive the view is even more breathtaking than you can imagine. You simply can’t capture the beauty in a photograph. The house was gorgeous and being able to park safety in the garage was a real bonus.

Spectacular waterside view. Unique. Comfortable beds. Well equipped kitchen. Very clean. We had a really wonderful time. I would recommend taking some of your own logs, there was only enough for 1 short fire for a 2 night stay.

I have just thoroughly enjoyed a short break away with my 3 adult children.

I’m glad i paid extra for the hot tub as this was a great added feature to have at the end of a long day, to relax and look across the golf course at the views. I fully recommend this lodge and would definit…

We had an excellent stay at Lower Heywood in Dartmouth. The apartment was beautifully presented, very well equipped, and maintained to a high standard throughout. The rainfall shower was superb. It provided a comfortable and relaxing base, with everything we needed for an enjoyable holiday. The location was ideal for exploring Dartmouth and the surrounding area, and we particularly appreciated the setting next to th…

The magnificent view of the harbour captivated us time and time again. But even apart from the location, I would have loved the apartment. It has everything you need and it has character. Check-in was easy, parking was straightforward, and there’s plenty to do nearby. Perfect!

A fantastic house for a larger group get away; it had everything you could need and was pristine. Location was ideal being a very short walk from the town. Paul was a great host and was very responsive. We’ll be back!

“We had a lovely break at the cabin. Spotlessly clean on arrival and milk left in the fridge. Great base from which to explore the area and visit Salcombe and Dartmouth. Will definitely return”.
