A wonderful comfortable house ideal for 2 couples or a couple with 2 children. Itâs so central to all Dartmouth has to offer. A few minutes walk & youâre by the river for ferries to Kingswear & buses to Totnes, Torcross & Plymouth. The kitchen is well equipped & the washing machine was a real bonus. The road is extremely narrow but to have a car park space this central to town was fantastic.
