Everything was better than expected. It was just a 5-minute walk up to the coast with its sensational views, and a 10-minute walk to a wonderful bay with a fantastic sandy beach. A cozy pub serving delicious food, beer, and pool was only a 2-minute walk away. Agatha Christie’s house, Plymouth, and Dartmouth were all within a 30- to 45-minute drive. And then, always returning to a truly cozy apartment that had everyt…

Great little space for solos or couples. Within two minutes walk of most of the lower part of Dartmouth, loads of great pubs and cafes. The space itself is very quirky with hatches and hidden storage spaces, with lots of sea memorabilia without feeling cluttered or dusty. I didn’t cook, but the kitchen had all you could want (except an oven), with plenty of pots, pans, cutlery, plates and glasses. Would definitely c…

A lovely flat with fantastic views out across the River Dart. We stayed here at the end of a week’s walk along part of the South West Coast Path and it was an excellent base for Dartmouth/KIngswear for a couple of days before we headed home.

We felt very comfortable in the accommodation. It was super clean and excellently equipped (though a few more plates, knives, and forks would be nice if you want to make proper use of the dishwasher).

We stayed at Trafalgar Cottage for the weekend in August. The house is furnished to a very high standard, extremely tastefully decorated, but what elevates it are the amazing views from literally every room and the gorgeous terrace where we say for hours just watching the boats and the world go by. If you are considering staying here as two couples or a family, don’t hesitate, you won’t be disappointed.

This is a great place to stay in the middle of Totnes restaurants and cafes. Despite the central location the place is really quiet and peaceful.

We had a lovely relaxing stay in the barn, it’s in a lovely quiet spot, very comfortable, and had everything we needed. The ceiling on the mezzanine bedroom is very low but no problem once you’re in bed and laying down!
