"Very clean and comfortable, this great little cottage is a perfect base for exploring the area."
Close to Dartmouth and Bigbury on Sea (Burgh Island) is just a short drive away, Greenway is a short trip over the river and the Ferry Boat Inn down on the quay is the perfect place to spend an afternoon We had a great week

"We had a lovely week at November Cottage."
It's clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Dittisham is a pretty village with little lanes to explore. Pizzas at the Ferry Boat Inn are well worth trying! Lots of shorter walks in the area and it's a beautiful walk to Dartmouth (little ferry to Greenway to set off)

"Lovely cottage in a lovely quiet village"

"We loved the lay out and position of the cottage it ticked all our boxes."
But on the down side it was in desperate need of a good vacuum. Even though I have dogs my self I would never leave dogs hairs to the same extent . I had to vacuum the cottage thoroughly . Also smelt strongly of dogs . Well equipped with cutlery etc apart from the fact that there was only one wine glass Also would have been useful if there had been a guide to recycling policy so just had to use guess work . Lovely little court yard which was ideal but needed the plants maintained as they were taking over and the space was really over grown . But certainly a gem for the location

"We have stayed in November Cottage many times."
We love its location as it is so quiet. The cottage suits the two of us because it is simply furnished and generally clean. I have said before however that it is a pity dogs are allowed. The carpet is marked with footprints and there was a lot of hair which hadn’t been cleaned away on our last visit.

"Really nicely appointed cottage, and we liked how a manual full of instructions wasn't thrust upon us, and we were left to enjoy a lovely break!"
Very comfortable and clean cottage, in a wonderful setting. The car parking space made it especially convenient. Top tip: if you plan do use the hoover at all, do make sure it's charged up. We intended to tidy up before we left, but the modern hoover needs to charge, we didn't realise. Thanks very much for a lovely stay.

"We enjoyed our week at the cottage."
Possibly because no one had stayed there for a few weeks(?), we had a bit of an issue with flies when we arrived. There was no towel provided for the downstairs loo. A pint of milk and some washing up liquid would have been nice. The dining table is really, really unsteady! Very comfortable sofa and beds, lovely towels and well equipped for what we needed.

Cottage is very cosy

"Lovely cottage in a beautiful and quiet location."
I would definitely consider staying again.

"The cottage was very comfortable and beautifully fitted and furnished."
We especially liked the bathroom shower. As the description talks about having tea as soon as you arrive, it would have been nice to have some fresh milk left or a few small UHT pots. The downstairs cloakroom smelt quite strongly of dog wee I’m afraid. The beds were good but a little in the hard side. The second double bed was hard to get in/out of. If you change it ever then perhaps / singles might work better. I was a little afraid of the cream carpet/furniture but with extra care nothing was marked by us. Dittisham was lovely. Thank you Jane and Jon Cook

The property
Located in the quaint Devonshire village of Dittisham, just a short distance from the tranquil banks of the River Dart, lies the charming, two-bedroom holiday home of November Cottage.
With a delightful, sky-blue exterior, well-appointed living spaces, and allocated parking for one car, this lovely property welcomes a family of four or a group of friends sharing, along with their canine companions, for a relaxing, self-catered escape to the south of Devon.
Park up in your designated parking spot before you enter into your humble new lodgings.
Hang up your coats and jackets in the porch area before you make you stick the kettle on for a round of teas in the fully-equipped kitchen.
Here, you’ll find all the appliances you’ll need to prepare a delicious, home-cooked dinner that can be savoured around the dining table in the living/dining room, or even outback in the enclosed courtyard for an idyllic alfresco experience.
When it’s time to unwind, kick back on the corner sofa whilst you watch a film or two on the Smart TV, before you head upstairs to refresh with a rejuvenating bath or shower.
When sleep calls, head to one of the two double bedrooms to settle down for a well-earned rest to re-energise for the day ahead.
Get your caffeine fix with the help of the Nespresso coffee machine in the morning before you head out to explore what your local area has in store.
A short stroll will bring you into Dittisham, where you can stock up on homely essentials at the post office on your way to tucking into a hearty pub lunch at the Ferry Boat Inn.
From here, hop onboard a ferry to visit the nearby locales of the historic Greenway House and the National Trust spot of Greenway Boathouse.
Slightly further afield, you will find Dartmouth just a brief drive along the coast, a town brimming with culture and home to iconic attractions such as the Dartmouth Museum and the brilliant Royal Avenue Gardens.
Keep travelling south from here and you will also happen upon Bayard’s Cove Fort, the ancient setting of Dartmouth Castle, as well as the National Trust nature reserve of Little Dartmouth.
All of this and more is yours to enjoy when you book a stay at November Cottage.
Note: the second bedroom has a small double bed
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

Stop at the Anchorstone Café for a spot of lunch while taking in the fantastic river views. Try your hand at some crabbing with the kids on the dinghy pontoon. Visit the iconic pink Ferry Boat Inn (or FBI as it is known locally). Ring the bell for the ferry and head across the Dart to Greenway, the once holiday home of the renowned Agatha
Christie. For outdoor activities, there are sailing schools and boat hire also paddle board and canoe hire, as well as plenty of
scenic walks. The harbour town of Dartmouth is just a short drive away or ferry away, and offers an array of shops, a cinema, plenty of restaurants and even a castle. Further afield, you will find plenty of fantastic beaches such as Blackpool and Slapton Sands, as well as key destinations such as Salcombe, Totnes, and Brixham to explore.
