“Just the perfect spot in Dartmouth. Amazing views of the Dart & had everything we needed for a weekend break. Located right in the heart of town close to some lovely restaurants & pubs. Paul was helpful throughout & the check in procedure was very smooth. The Cabin sits atop a lovely cafe where you can pick up pastries & coffee in the morning in a matter of seconds! We both said we wished we could have stayed longe…

“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.”

Lovely peaceful location, loved the secure little private courtyard at the front, we could sit leave the door open so the dog could come and go freely, the grassy area a few yards away was also great for the dog to explore. Cottage was clean and tidy and beds were very comfy. Seemed to have everything you need although we didn’t do any cooking during our stay. One thing to be aware of is that one of the roads to acc…

Perfect location, perfect accommodation and very responsive hosts. We had a lovely but brief time here but enjoyed so much that we are already planning our return next year, but will definitely stay for longer next time. Thank you so much

We stayed at Trafalgar Cottage for the weekend in August. The house is furnished to a very high standard, extremely tastefully decorated, but what elevates it are the amazing views from literally every room and the gorgeous terrace where we say for hours just watching the boats and the world go by. If you are considering staying here as two couples or a family, don’t hesitate, you won’t be disappointed.

We had a fantastic stay and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The property was exactly as described—spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully set up with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It felt like a home away from home from the moment we arrived. Communication with the host was excellent throughout—helpful, and quick to respond, which made everything smooth and stress-free. It’s i…

We absolutely love the Rivershack and have stayed several times in the past. The location is amazing, right on the river. We swam everyday when the tide was in. The shack is small but has everything you need, from a utility area for wetsuits and muddy boots, a hot shower as well as a free standing bath, really comfortable beds and a well equipped kitchen. There is a bit of a walk from parking up to the shack, so bes…

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!

Our stay at the cabin was really nice. Paul gave us detailed directions to get there. The cabin had everything you needed to make the most of your stay.
