Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular sandy beaches are a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.

Itâs a keeper for us !!! We loved everything about the place , from the comfort of the sofa to the comfort of the bed, Use of two bathrooms / shower room; the kitchen was equipped with all that we needed. Tastefully decorated too. Outside the decking with chairs and table is a lovely place to relax especially when the sun is shining The parking was easy with an allocated spot and great bigs bins for rubbish disposal discreetly out the way !! An excellent place to stay for comfort, peace and quiet !!!

Beautifully decorated and designed. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need and the space made food preparation easy and enjoyable. The patio with French doors from the lounge made for evening relaxation after exploring Dartmouth. The small ferry to the castle is a must and the walk back along the coastal path provided wonderful views. The only drawback for us was the very narrow lane down to the village with limited passing places.
