Such a unique place. So cleverly fitted out as a boat that during a storm we believed we were on the high seas! Stunning views, wonderful food at Alf Rescos and the parking permit made things so easy. The position in central Dartmouth couldn’t be better. We are planning to revisit asap and wouldn’t hesitate te recommend the cabin.

We had a really lovely stay at Galions quay. The house is beautiful and immaculately appointed. Its location is perfect for being close to Dartmouth town but also just removed enough to be quiet. We especially loved being near to Dartmouth castle and the coves for swimming. The house itself has everything we needed and Paul was a great host. We’d stay there again without question.

This is a super place, in a quiet, peaceful location. The accommodation has been well thought through, absolutely everything you need is to hand, the kitchen is so well stocked with utensils it puts mine to shame!

A great home, well suited to families. We were 6 adults, 2 children and 3 dogs and had loads of space. The garden is huge and fantastic to play around, there is also a BBQ to use and lots of board games plus the table tennis table to keep everyone entertained on rainy days. Longish walk to the beach but great location close to both Thurlestone and Batham Beaches.

Beautiful location and view. Can’t beat hearing the sound of the ocean from inside the place. Beds were comfy and nice water pressure in the shower. Clear instructions and friendly host to communicate with. Would stay again. Thank you for the nice experience!

We had a great weekend. The manager was very responsive and the place was spotlessly clean and the hot tub was a great addition! We would definitely return!

A charming comfortable Edwardian house within easy walking distance to Dartmouth and a marvellous view to watch the ‘ Lower Ferry’ working, very relaxing. There is also a garage which is extremely convenient as parking in Dartmouth is very restricted. The house was well equipped, clean & comfortable. In all a delightful place to stay.
