A lovely, cosy little house, a short walk into the town. We really enjoyed our time at this house. It has everything you need, well equipped kitchen, a lovely wood burner, 2 tvs with Netflix etc, comfy beds, and ideal for a family as well as our Labrador. Paul was super accommodating and answered any questions I had. We even added an extra night as were having so much fun we didn’t want to go home! Dartmouth is a re…

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely apartment. It was spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, and had a fantastic view — a perfect place to relax and enjoy Dartmouth. The host was excellent, keeping us well informed throughout and making everything easy from start to finish. We know Dartmouth well, so we were prepared for the parking challenges, so it wasn’t an issue for us as we parked out by Dartmouth Castle f…

We had a wonderful stay! The accommodation was perfect for a long weekend in Devon. Literally 8 min drive outside of Dartmouth. The kids particularly loved the hot tub after spending the day out exploring. Thank you so much for having us!

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Dart Loft, the place was very easy to find very close to town centre. Everything available in the property we needed during our stay and the most comfortable beds that we have stayed in places away from home. I would definitely recommend the dart loft and would love to visit again. Weather was perfect during our stay.

We had a lovely stay here as a group of friends – the views from the back of the property are absolutely stunning. The place was very clean and tidy which we appreciated and the welcome guide was helpful. We did feel that for the price paid, it was a shame that there weren’t enough tea bags/ sugar sachets for everyone to have even one cup of tea during the stay, or enough dishwasher tablets as we cooked a couple of …

We stayed at the Boathouse in August 2026 and it was the perfect place to get away to this summer with two boys who love all things beach, swimming, rock climbing and skimming related. The beach on our doorstep was all we needed as the weather played ball all week. The views from the living room were stunning and being able to hear the waves from bed was an added extra. We were even lucky to see Sinbad the seal on a…
