Guests say

Nookie Cottage is a well-received holiday rental in Dartmouth, praised for its cosy atmosphere, convenient location, and thoughtful touches. Guests appreciate the modern conveniences blended with traditional features, the comfortable furnishings, and the added bonus of a parking space. The property is noted for being clean, well-equipped, and within easy walking distance to the town centre. While parking can be tight and the top floor has low headroom, the overall sentiment is positive, with many guests expressing a desire to return.

Reviews consistently mention the property being clean and tidy, indicating high standards of cleanliness. There are no negative comments regarding cleanliness, suggesting guests are very satisfied with the condition of the cottage upon arrival.

The location is highly praised for its proximity to the town centre and ease of access to local amenities. The flat walk to the centre and the convenience of the parking space, despite its size, are frequently mentioned as positives.

Guests find the cottage cosy and comfortable, with special mentions of the quality of the beds and the warmth of the property. Some concerns about the slope of the floor in the main bedroom and the steep stairs to the top floor are noted, but overall comfort is rated highly.

While guests are generally pleased with the facilities, including the well-equipped kitchen and the quality of the crockery and cutlery, there is insufficient information to accurately score maintenance issues. No specific reviews address maintenance directly, so this score is set to null.

The thoughtfulness of the hosts is frequently commended, with mentions of welcome gifts such as prosecco and treats. However, it is important to note that such gifts, while appreciated, are not guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

Nookie Cottage is a characterful 200 year old Grade II listed three-storey Georgian cottage resting in Dartmouth, Devon. Perfectly suited to friends and families alike, the cottage boasts original features, perfectly blended with a stylish decór to create this homely abode. Arriving at the cottage, an off-road parking space greets you, before making your way into the living/dining room, where you will see plenty of original features including a stunning fireplace and exposed beams. Settle down with your loved ones on the plush corner sofa to watch TV as the gas fire warms the space. Carry the conversation through to the stylish kitchen, fully-equipped with a range of modern amenities including a handy dishwasher, and make use of the facilities provided to prepare a heart-warming meal. Gather your guests together around the dining table to recount the days adventures as you indulge in your culinary delights over a chilled bottle of wine. If you're lucky enough to experience the warmer weather, head outdoors for an indulgent spot of alfresco dining on the peaceful setting of the private patio, soaking in the fresh sea air as you toast your favourite tipple. As the evening grows darker, venture back indoors and climb the stairs to the first floor to prepare for bed with a refreshing rinse in the elegant shower room, stylishly tiled throughout, or climb a second set of stairs and pour in the bubbles to indulge in a luxurious soak in the bath. Catch up on your favourite show from the comfort of the covers in the master bedroom, fit with a sumptuous king-size bed, enjoy an intimate escape from the excitement in the single bedroom, or drift off to a night embrace in the double room. Get better acquainted with your surroundings and take the short stroll into the heart of Dartmouth where you'll find a host of unique shops, award winning restaurants and lively bars; discover the fascinating history of the 17th century on display at Dartmouth Museum or learn about the work that the Royal Navy Lifeboat Institution do at the RNLI Visitor Centre. Historians will be delighted with a visit to the 16th century Tudor fortress of Bayard's Cove Fort as well as Dartmouth Castle, towering over the Dart Estuary, or if that's not your thing, indulge in a spot of traditional Devonshire afternoon tea at Dartmouth Castle Tea Rooms. Pack up your picnic and spend a fun-filled day at the Blue Flag award-winning Blackpool Sands, where you can paddle the shores, soak up the sun with your favourite book, or tackle the waters aboard a kayak. Keep the little ones entertained with a visit to Dartmoor Zoo, home to a vast array of endangered animals stretching across 33 acres of scenic parkland; why not book an experience and come face-to-face with the tigers? Embark on a two-footed adventure and follow the South West Coast Path as it runs parallel to the dramatic coastline of the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, taking you on a trek over rugged clifftops and offering some of the most superb views in Devon. Choose Nookie Cottage as a base that you'll want to return to year after year.

Lying at the banks of the River Dart is the popular seaside resort of Dartmouth. The town is known for its location within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and its stunning coastline.

    This is our third year at Nookie Cottage and we love it, the location, the comfort and the parking space make it a perfect place for us to stay in Dartmouth

  • Marion

    Welcome pack of Prosecco, milk and shortbread was a nice, helpful treat. Only gripe which was out of your control was different people parked over the parking bay a few times, despite the notices. Sykes hols want customers to do everything for them via their website and it was difficult to get help over phone which was annoying.

  • Jeffrey

    Clean and tidy with all equipment available. Only one shower so if a extra could be fitted in top bathroom it would make a great improvement as just one shower is not enough for four adults. Parking is only for a small car and we had to park away from property. Another point is the mattresses could updated.We would recommend this place and would stay again.
