We had a lovely stay in this apartment. It was beautiful and clean and in a very convenient location as the town centre was walking distance as well as other attractions such as the castle! The only thing was that parking was challenging as there is a road closure just outside the flat. Otherwise, perfect! Thank you

Just got back from an amazing stay at 8 Dartmouth Grove. Views were simply amazing, had a lovely sunrise in the morning to enjoy. The lodge is finished to a high standard which made it an enjoyable place to unwind and relax. The hot tub was also a lovely luxury which should definitely be booked. Hosts very responsive and accommodating – already looking to book again for next year.

Last minute get away booked. Lovely area, cottage was lovely & great location to harbour. Host very helpful with a link to a guide to local places.

We absolutely LOVED this gem of a place. Tucked away right on the river estuary, we had an absolutely charming weekend away with the kids and the dog. The place is very easy to fall in love with – quirky and cosy, with the best location we’ve ever had from an Airbnb. The neighbours are very friendly and the pub is great. We are so glad we took a little boat with us, we explored up and down the river (there’s a small…

“Beautiful little place. Very short walk to Brixham harbour and a great location to explore South Devon. We had some lovely evening walks down to the harbour and we found the location ideal, even with my aunt and some mobility issues (walking stick). Paul was extremely responsive when we struggled to find the front door from the parked car. The place was immaculate, all bed linen smelt so fresh and the beds were so …

Cosy, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. Great location in the heart of Totnes but quietly tucked away behind the high street.
