Very nice duplex apartment, well appointed in a central area of Dartmouth – a few minutes walk from everything in the town. I would use it again.

A beautiful 3 night stay in Dartmouth. Lower Heywood was everything we could have asked for: Very local to restaurants and shops and the quayside. A peaceful and relaxing stay.

“Stop scrolling! This place is beautiful with stunning views. We had a magical three nights stay here to recharge before Christmas. Dartmouth never disappoints and this place was perfect to relax and unwind that is just a stones throw from all that Dartmouth has to offer”.

Excellent stay at The Cabin. Beautifully clean and organised. Greeted by the Christmas tree twinkle lights,decorations around the cabin and lovely bottle of wine. Very well equipped, great layout and surrounded by trees and ferns. Comfortable beds with lovely linens and towels. The only thing I can add is maybe a microwave? Would love to stay again. Thanks team ‘The Cabin’

The property is in a good location and it was easy to get inside with very clear instructions. The beds were really comfortable and rooms were of a good size. The rooms were very clean and well maintained and bathrooms were lovely. The kitchen and utensils were great, and a nearby co op allowed for ease of getting essentials such as tea and coffee. Only feedback would be we couldn’t find a hair dryer. Wish tea and c…

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…

Great little cabin. Exceptionally clean and well appointed. Woke to bird song each day. Loved the log fire. Perfect if you want to get away from it all. It is a remote location and difficult to get about with the dreaded Devon lanes surrounding it, but if you want peace, you will find it here. Good luck finding the microwave and washing machine! It’s there….just not where you might expect!

The cabin was well appointed and equipped. Very comfortable and cosy. Quiet and peaceful setting, though not far from ‘Devon’s largest family theme park’, Dartmouth and other places of interest. Nice to be able to sit out and have a meal on the patio. The children enjoyed the DVD collection. Being a group of three adults and two children, having two bathrooms was handy. The complimentary bottle of wine was very welc…
