A lovely place to stay in the heart of Dartmouth! Very close to shops and restaurants, and also to the ferries if you want to go to Kingswear or on a trip. A lovely house with an amazing view over Dartmouth - which was a great vantage point for watching the regatta fireworks! An amazing garden space which was very well used during our stay.
We had a lovely stay and the house was spacious, comfy and clean. Excellent location and such super views out onto Dartmouth, the river and Kingswear from the front of the house.
The shops and restaurants are on your doorstep with local renowned breakfast spot Cafe Alfrecso opposite the main entrance. Head left and you will find Bayards Cove where the Mayflower set sail for America. On the riverfront you will find Mitch Tonks 'The Rockfish' and 'The Seahorse'. Also, on the river front you will find transport links via the ferries and steam train in Kingswear. Blackpool Sands is the closest beach, a 10-minute drive away
