"Very well presented holiday cottage with everything needed for a comfortable stay."
We hope to be back next year.

"The property is situated in a lovely valley, with good gardens and outdoor space for children."
it's initial appearance on arrival is very welcoming. However the property would benefit for some TLC, it needs a good clean and is in need of a lick of paint and batteries putting in appliances (clocks / TV remotes). We did though have a lovely stay though, the property is well equipped and is very comfortable, however it would be worth noting that property does not have Wi-fi, this was an issue when trying look things up or to book activities / trips.
Thanks so much for your feedback. The property is scheduled to be fully decorated at the end of the season. There is WiFi at the property so I’m not quite sure why you encountered problems but I will definitely look into this. I genuinely appreciate your feedback, thank you. Property Owner

"As for nr 4 Keepers Cottage which we stayed in two years ago, the wall cup’ds in the kitchen area are at the wrong height!"
..they might look very stylish but when a cup’d door is open the lower corner is likely to cause a facial injury! On a separate note we were not able to return the key to the key safe on our departure. The key fob is simply too long! We were obliged to return the key to key box at the ‘office’ ( which was a wooden shed).

"Comfortable and well furnished accommodation in excellent surroundings"

"Fantastic holiday with a beautiful view the accommodation ad everything u needed and was so cosy would definitely come back ."

"Fantastic accommodation with surrounding area being peaceful and pleasant."
Very well thought out out site and plenty of places to visit within an hour's drive. Only downside was I inherently hid the two way switch for the mezzanine due to my clothes being hung on the coat hooks. Perhaps move the rack to the other side of the mezzanine? I had to switch on the table lamp every evening before returning down the stairs to switch off main light. My fault, but did not occur to me on arrival, although I still feel the coat hook rack is wrongly positioned especially as it acts as a wardrobe. Very accommodating and converted upstairs mezzanine to an extremely comfortable double bed ( think it was King size). Hope to return.

"We both loved staying in the hillfield village."

"Excellent little property on a lovely quiet holiday village."
Handy for both parking in Dartmouth (limited to 4 hours in summer) and park and ride near Dartmouth Leisure Centre (would recommend you install the RinGo parking app) machines frequently refuse coins. Keep a supply of 20p pieces for toilets although credit/debit cards accepted. Sainsburys not too far away as is Best Western Hotel at Dartmouth Golf Club where we enjoyed a lovely evening meal.

"Absolutely great stay, would recommend to anyone,"

"Beautiful location, ultra clean property."
Well equipped, I’m sure we’ll be back.

"The property was exactly as described - beautifully presented and very clean, with all the 'mod cons'."
The young lady at the site Reception ('Erica') was kind, understanding and flexible - allowing us to collect the property key from a secure location, when we knew we would not be able to check in at the suggested time. We also received a couple of courtesy calls from her, to check if we'd arrived ok, and if we needed anything. Furthermore, she called me promptly, when housekeeping staff realised I'd left my raincoat in the cupboard - it had been such glorious weather, I completely forgot about it!! Such a pretty location too! A great stay - thank you!

"Extremely clean and comfortable cottage."
The village could do with an on onsite bar or cafe. Roads leading to main roads nearby are challenging. A great location for the beautiful surrounding areas to visit.

"What a perfect cottage and perfect location to explore South Devon…."
The cottage was super clean with excellent facilities and Hillfield Village is beautiful and picturesque! Staff were amazing and even a complimentary bottle of wine upon arrival…We will definitely be back!

"This was a lovely little cottage in a very well maintained development."
The cottage was exceptionally clean and tidy throughout and maintained to a high standard. The bottle of wine on arrival was a nice touch and lovely surprise. It is in a great location just a couple of miles outside of Dartmouth. Will definitely be coming back and would definitely recommend to friends and family.
Thank you so much for the positive review that you gave for your stay at 5 Keepers Cottage... It is genuinely appreciated. I am delighted that you enjoyed your stay and hope that you will come again soon. Very best wishes, Sarah Property Owner

"Perfect location can't wait to come back"

"I stayed at 5 Sykes Cottages for 4 nights, with my wife and two young children."
Firstly the cottage was very comfortable, clean and in a very quiet location. There was building work opposite going on during our stay, but the builders were very considerate and didn’t start early or finish late. In a good location, 5 minutes drive to Sainsbury’s or Lidl and also the park and ride if you want to go into the stunning Dartmouth for the day. Would recommend Blackpool Sands beach which is 10 to 15 minutes drive way. Also Woodlands theme park is close by. Need to be aware that you need to drive everywhere as the lane out of Sykes Cottages is very narrow with no pavement. All in all would recommend and would definitely stay at Sykes Cottages again.

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.
