  • "Apartment very clean and comfortable and views gorgeous."

    Would be nice to have a few staples on arrival such as tea/coffee, milk as it is a long climb down to town when you arrive tired after a long journey.

  • "I had to put the black seal in place in the Dishwasher after it was loose, no welcome pack eg."

    Milk and biscuits, very little washing up liquid and hand wash.

  • "A lovely property with great views across the town."

    You need to be mobile to access this property as once inside the entrance there is a steep exterior staircase to the front door (top floor apartment). The property itself is lovely with a modern kitchen and well furnished apartment very light and airy. Parking is a short walk away and a free permit is supplied to put in the car window. This property is right in the town centre and a short stroll to pubs, chip shop and town centre shops. Great location just need to be fit enough to negotiate the steps with bags etc.

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.
