Lovely house in a stunning location, very walkable into Dartmouth. Once we caught the ferry from towards the castle to Dartmouth for a bit of fun. House is beautiful and very modern. Paul was extremely proactive and managed sort out an issue we had quickly.

Our stay at Ritson Farm was amazing from start to finish. The house is beautiful and was perfect for our family of six adults and four children. There was lots to explore in the area, including gorgeous beaches and the Dart Country Park, but it was also nice to stay in the house and play games and make memories. We had the best time and will never forget our stay at Ritson Farm. Thank you.

“Slice of heaven. The pictures and all the positive reviews aren’t even close to what you will experience once you step in to the property. Fully equipped – basics easily acquired from a local co-op down the road. Three levels of views for guests to enjoy – picturesque, panoramic, stunning.”

Foredeck is in a stunning location, minutes away from the lovely shops and restaurants of Dartmouth. When we needed some help with the flat, Peter was very quick to respond. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Heywood was a lovely, comfortable and homely place to stay. Ideally situated in the center of Dartmouth so everything was easily accessible. The parking permit for the local car park was extremely useful. Comfortable bed, good shower and a nice homely environment. We shall be back.

We had a wonderful stay in Thurlestone – a long weekend – Thurs to Monday and despite Storm Amy we had some good times on the beach and local farm park attractions. The home was wonderfully appointed and had everything we needed and even suitable toys for the 18 month old in our party!
