“Wonderful little hideaway with everything we needed for a relaxing week away. Beautiful surroundings with a stunning view where I could eat breakfast whilst watching the swallows and go to bed listening to the owls hooting.”

Solstice is a lovely, bright and spacious place to stay. It is in the most wonderful location with beautiful views to keep you happy even on the rainiest of days, and is a perfect base for pottering into Dartmouth or enjoying a walk along the coastal path. I very much hope to stay there again!

A stunningly beautiful location to enjoy Dartmouth. The jaw dropping views of the harbour from the property are reason enough to stay here. The house itself is spacious, comfortable and stylish and in a great central location. Paul the host was responsive, polite and friendly. I’ll be back next year!

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!

“A beautiful house in spectacular surroundings. Perfect for our family celebration. Everything we needed for adults and children; well equipped kitchen, games room, comfy beds, lovely lounge and the most beautiful view from a large conservatory. Open the patio doors and it was like a painting or tv scene, great grounds for exploring. Loved the walled garden and a good bbq area. Perfect. Thank you.”

Beautiful house and views. Stunning location just to relax and watch life on the River Dart, potter around historic Dartmouth or get out onto the coast path. Wonderful Sun trap that made late February feel like early summer! There are quite a few steps down to the property and lack of parking was the only downside. Highly recommend.

A beautiful place to stay if you are coming to Dartmouth. The home has amazing views, it’s a great space and very clean and tidy. It had everything you needed, very quiet and all round lovely! Along side this, check in was very easy! Although parking is a little limited, Paul was so helpful and responsive throughout the booking and we found parking quickly and just by the house! Would definitely stay here again!
