It’s a beautiful, quiet spot, which we’ve been to before. Lovely cabin in the woods and very comfortable.

A lovely, cosy little house, a short walk into the town. We really enjoyed our time at this house. It has everything you need, well equipped kitchen, a lovely wood burner, 2 tvs with Netflix etc, comfy beds, and ideal for a family as well as our Labrador. Paul was super accommodating and answered any questions I had. We even added an extra night as were having so much fun we didn’t want to go home! Dartmouth is a re…

“The most perfect place to stay in Dartmouth for our group of 5! Beautiful spacious house, all the amenities you could need, comfy beds, beautiful garden and terrace with amazing views. The location is perfect as you have parking but also 5-10 minutes walk into the centre where you have many great pubs and restaurants. We will be back soon I’m sure!”

Another wonderful stay at Spindrift. The house is light and airy, equipped with everything you could possibly need for a week. The living area is spacious and comfortable. Bedrooms are bright with beautiful bathrooms. Our dogs love the garden which wraps around and is completely secure. The weather was gorgeous and so the bbq came in very handy. Paul was very friendly and helpful in his communication. Hopefully we w…

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 lovely stay. The barn was well equipped and in a great location with the beach just a 15-20 walk away and the village store and pub just around the corner. The area is beautiful with a lot of stunning coastal walks and Dartmouth and Brixham not far away. We can highly recommend staying at this place.

“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 …

“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.”
