About this property
Tucked away in the heart of Dartmouth, Devon, is this charming, ground-floor studio apartment, The Mew. Enjoying a great location within the South Devon AONB and just moments from the River Dart and range of amenities, The Mew is a fabulous choice for couples. Be welcomed into the open-plan living space, where you will find a compact yet well-equipped kitchen for rustling up tasty dishes to enjoy at the dining table over a bottle of wine, before kicking back and relaxing on the plush seating in front of the electric fire, as your favourite show plays out on the Smart TV. Wash away the day in the shower room, before climbing into the double bed and dreaming about the adventures to come. Within the bustling Naval town of Dartmouth there is plenty to fill your itinerary; sample fresh seafood at Rockfish, British classics at The Cherub Inn, Indian at the Taj Mahal and European at Andria, stock up on essentials at the numerous delis and independent shops. Tour Dartmouth Museum, hire a boat out on the waters of the River Dart, or explore the historic delights of Bayard’s Cove Fort and Dartmouth Castle. Pack your bucket and spades and head to the Blue Flag Blackpool Sands, where you can sunbathe with your favourite book, try your hand at watersports and dine at the on-site café. Head to Brixham and take a stroll through Battery Gardens, go on a hike to Berry Head National Nature Reserve to see panoramic vistas of the coast, or visit the Brixham Heritage Museum to learn more about the area's history. However you choose to spend your time, a holiday at The Mew is sure to full of adventure.
Dartmouth, a popular and picturesque town in South Devon, is located on the banks of the River Dart estuary. Dartmouth is one of Devon's most visited cities because of its proximity to the coast and the National Park that protects it. The town hosts many annual events, including the Dart Music Festival, the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, and the Dartmouth Food Festival, all of which take advantage of the town's beautiful waterfront and ancient, winding streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants, and art galleries. The South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail, and many quiet country lanes make the area around Dartmouth ideal for bicycling and walking. The Dartmouth Steam Railway ride through the countryside to Paignton is a must, as is the boat ride across to Kingswear and on to the charming harbour town of Brixham. Blackpool Sands, winner of the Blue Flag Award, and Slapton Sands, a popular beach not far from Dartmouth, are just two of the many options available to beachgoers in the South Hams area. South Devon is a great place to unwind.

The studio is extremely well designed and tastefully decorated. Quiet at night. The apartment was spotlessly clean and bed very comfortable. The studio manual was very helpful. Parking permit most important and only short walk from Mayors car park to The Mew. Only thing missing was a dishwasher because of lack of space. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and thank you Coast and Country for making the key and parking permit collection an easy task. Hopefully we will return.
