We spent a fabulous week at 3 cottage which was the perfect base for exploring South Devon. The cottage was spotless and very well equipped. We would definitely recommend it.

The location was great, the flat was clean, heating worked well and the parking permit was an added bonus. However it would have been nice to have some instructions on how to get the rather inadequate shower to turn on, and also how to receive a signal on the television. Not bad, but not great either.

Very clean apartment right in the town center. 2 bathrooms, which is always convenient for a family with teenagers. It seems there was a change of parking regulations, so we had to park our car in the Park & Ride up the hill, and then take the free shuttle down to the coast. This worked absolutely fine for us, as once you are there, you are “downtown”. Location is quiet considering its central location, but be aware…

Wow. What a very special place this is. For a start it’s in a brilliant position overlooking the river in lovely Dartmouth. But there’s more to it than that – the house itself has been finished and furnished to a very high standard of both comfort and amenities. Everything worked easily and as you would expect. The layout is stylish and designed to make the most of all the views – and I’m sure the fire and downstair…

“Wonderfully located and a stunning view from both the house and the upper terrace area. Certainly enough to do around the house alone. Looking for a stroll, the beach is a minute walk away. Great island to venture to House was very clean and well described to the booking”.

“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”.

Lovely, homely cabin in the woods. The whole place was well designed and thought out with attractive interiors. We only had breakfast in, so can’t comment on kitchen facilities really, but everything was spotless. The bathrooms had soft towels and were again very clean.
