The Townhouse was nice, but a little cold. It was clean and well maintained. Not too far from Dartmouth shops and restaurants. Easy walk in, but a big climb back – good workout 😁.

We have just spent the most wonderful long weekend at Steppes. It is the most wonderful house with an amazing view which was perfect for a big family get together. Coffee on the deck in the morning sunshine, looking at everything going on in the harbour and the view out to see was just incredible. Thank you for letting us enjoy this wonderful house.

Beautiful location with wonderful views. Ideally situated with local amenities conveniently situated. Not easy for those with walking difficulties as there are steep steps down to the property. Does need some attention to the interior and exterior decoration as it is showing signs of wear. That aside this is a very nice home to enjoy whatever the weather with picture windows and rap around terraces

I definitely wouldn’t recommend finding it in the dark although once we knew where it was i…

We absolutely loved the Captains Cabin! We would definitely stay again. It was so quirky and the views were fantastic from the balcony! Paul was really responsive every time we pinged a message over… couldn’t fault him at all. We will and already have recommended the Captains Cabin to our friends and family!

What a truly breathtaking property. The pictures just don’t match up to the wow factor when you walk in. Of course the unbelievable views help , but the house itself is beautiful! Right on the river , we could have stayed on the balcony for the whole weekend just relaxing and enjoying the view. Location was fabulous, beds were comfortable, and the house was spacious and I loved how it was on different levels so you …

“We wanted a special place, with great views of The Dart to celebrate our friends special birthday. Steppes House did not disappoint! The views were stunning. The main living space was perfectly laid out for spending time with friends. There are two dining tables which was great as one turned into a puzzle table whilst we dined at the other. The bedrooms were spacious and the bed were incredibly comfortable. We had …

The location is quite unique and looking onto the sea is very special. Even more special is the close proximity to the sea, so you can go to bed listening to the waves and wake up to them. Gorgeous
