  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

    The apartment was beautifully decorated and very clean and comfortable. It felt like our home for the week. A great base for enjoying the area without needing to take the car out every day. It was somewhere nice to come back to and relax as part of the whole holiday experience. Thank you.

    So glad you enjoyed your stay at 41 and you found it clean, comfy and beautifully decorated. Hope to see you again x Property Owner

  • "As you can tell from the rating, this was a really comfortable apartment and in a great location."

    That's not to say it couldn't be improved upon. for instance, I couldn't find any oven gloves (we managed), and the shower could be better. Although we didn't use the supplied fans, given that the apartment is warm, the option of lightweight summer duvets would have helped. But, all in all, we'd happily stay there again.

    Thank you for your 100% feedback and I’m glad you found the apartment comfortable and in a great location. I’ve been reluctant to get oven gloves as they can be tricky to launder but your comments have inspired me to get some. I’ve also fitted two new shower heads. Property Owner

  • "We have just had a lovely week at 41 Dart Marina."

    Lovely well equipped apartment we felt very comfortable there. We didn’t want to come home! We were very lucky with the weather had some nice sunshine apart from Thursday when the rain didn’t stop. We really enjoyed sitting on the lawned area in front of the Dart Hotel and enjoying a G&T in the late afternoon from the pop up bar. We would love to come back and stay again.

    Thanks for the 100% feedback - amazing and I’m glad you enjoyed your time at 41. Yes, the pop up bar and views are wonderful and quite relaxing. Hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

    Near enough to walk to everything, yet lovely and quiet. The property is very well equipped, beautifully furnished and the beds are really comfy! Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

  • "We stayed during the music festival and were able to walk into town to access the gigs."

    It was very conveniently placed. Very comfortable beds and spacious living area. We really enjoyed our stay here, and very likely to book again. Parking space access very tight when adjoining space is in use at the same time, as it is next to a wall. The smell from the dishwasher could possibly be improved with some maintenance.

  • "The general experience was very good."

    I have two comments which are not related to the facility itself. I would first ask that the testing of the fire alarm be better managed. A small sentence on the Fire Instruction notice is insufficient. It was a surprise and caused consternation to not only us but to the neighbours as well. Secondly, there has to be a way to not require older or infirm guests to strip bed linen. We are both in our late seventies and find it extremely strenuous and stressful to comply with this requirement.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, we are sorry that the fire alarm caused you surprise as it is between a 2 hour window during the day it is very hard to pinpoint when this will take place. We do not expect guests to strip linen from beds on departure, so will look to find where you saw this request, and remove it from the property. We do hope that you had a lovely stay in Dartmouth and look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

    Perhaps a guide on how to use if would be helpful, other than that we would definitely come back.

  • "Great stay with a great location."

    Few small points, when we arrived at the property we found a random dirty towel on the living room floor, not end of the world. The kick boards in the kitchen kept falling down on your toes when you opened some cupboards.

    So sorry you found a dirty towel. I’ve been in touch with the property managers and they think it was just dropped from the linen pile as the cleaners were leaving. Even so, I understand it wasn’t a great first impression. I’m getting a quote to repair or replace the kickbaords. Property Owner

    I did push it back and your handyman Graham came to have a look. It happened a couple more times during the week, but I knew what to do. Maybe a proper look at the end of the season. It didnt spoin our stay and everything else was lovely.

  • "Lovely apartment in a great location, would certainly book again."

    Only suggestion would be to leave instructions on how to use the hob, we found it difficult to get it working probably something to do with the lock function. The Sykes instructions on how to find the apartment don't mention that No 41 is past Apartments numberered 104 etc. so you don't know you have to walk past those.

    Thanks so much for your feedback; glad you enjoyed it. I’ll put together some instructions for the hob - thanks for the suggestion. And I’ll ask Sykes to note the “locating”info too. Hope to see you again. Julie Property Owner

  • "The apartment is very well equipped and the location is good, it would possibly be better to collate all the information into a single folder rather than place a separate list of requests etc in a different area."

    Our only real criticism is the collection and disposal of the keys. At the end of or start of a holiday, going into the town to collect or deliver the keys is an additional requirement that is totally unwelcome. We were told that the key safe at the property was for the use of the owners but surely this could be utilised better. If the owners wish to retain the key safe for themselves then an additional one could be fitted. Another thought that only applies on the relationship with the hotel is that the keys could easily be collected or left with their reception.

    Many thanks for leaving you feedback. We are thrilled you loved the apartment, although we are sorry you felt the key collection was an inconvenience. Many of our owners prefer guests to collect keys from the office as it allows a face to face meet and greet, guests are also then aware where we are, should there be an issue that needs to be reported. We understand your comments, however many guests appreciate the opportunity to know where we are before their holiday begins. We do hope you had a lovely time and enjoyed all that Dartmouth has to offer. Property Owner

    The position is fantastic for walking into the town and as we had mostly good weather we could sit with the French balcony doors open. The apartment is well equipped and the bed was very comfortable. The lift was a bonus to get cases to the apartment, the only issue we had was the fact we could not find it! We arrived in torrential rain and found to door to the stair case ok but when we arrived on the landing a sign said to apartment 104 to 102 which confused us, however a friendly gentleman said that 41 was further along the walkway so all was well We will return

  • "Number 41 was clean, comfortable, huge bathroom, two big bedrooms (and more importantly - big beds)."

    There was a view of the river courtesy of the notch made by the two story house opposite. The pretty town of Dartmouth was only a few minutes walk and the Floating Bridge Pub was even closer (they did a great Sunday lunch). What's not to like? Well just two things, despite all the reviews saying how hot the place was because of the Spa underneath it was sometimes a bit cool (but it was March with the temperature not breaking double digits) and second, there was nowhere to dispose of our rubbish when we left (there was a sign saying A General Waste bin was in the next compound, but there was nothing there But these were tiny fly's on the delicious trifle of an excellent holiday Highly recommended

    Thank you for your review, flawless score and recommendation. Much appreciated! Good to hear you had an excellent holiday. The NEST controller in the hall adjusts the heating - sorry if it was set too low for you and there were no clear instructions. The information left by Coast should set out where the rubbish is to be placed (there are recycling bins in the 3rd parking bay and general waste bins at the end of the parking area). Sorry it wasn’t clear. Hope to see you again! Property Owner

    A dedicated parking space is certainly a bonus. Some minor (very) negatives concerning the front door lock (pull the door towards you before turning the key) and the upstairs flush sticking and the apartment located by the hotel kitchen delivery access would not put us off booking this apartment again, it was really first class. All the positives out weigh the minor negatives of which two can be fixed by some end of year maintenance. Great stay great apartment.

    It is a beautifully furnished appartment with lovely views of the estuary. We spent many evenings watching the yachts sail by with a glass of wine. A brilliant location for walking into the town and accessing everything Dartmouth has to offer.

About the location

DARTMOUTH

Totnes 12 miles.

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, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. 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 Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.
