About this property

Nestled in the heart of the bustling tourist town of Dartmouth, in the sought-after county of Devon rests this remarkable four-storey holiday home, 13 Above Town. With outstanding views across the rooftops to the River Dart and toward the sea beyond, 13 Above Town is idyllically positioned for a coastal retreat. Marvel at the vibrant pink exterior of this striking holiday home upon arrival before kicking off your shoes as you step over the threshold and enter into the hallway, providing a handy spot to store your belongings and beach-going essentials away from the main living areas. Follow the hallway through to the sitting room resting at the rear of the property, flooded with natural light streaming in through the towering patio doors and home to a sumptuous seating area gathered in front of the TV, perfect for settling down and catching up on your favourite show following an action-packed day. There is a generous balcony through the patio doors boasting spectacular views of the river (including the ferry and the steam railway) and, beyond the castle, the sea. Descend the stairs to the lower ground floor where you'll find the open-plan kitchen/diner, beautifully-appointed with a contemporary interior and fitted with a range of modern amenities; utilise the facilities provided to prepare a heart-warming meal for the group before gathering together at the dining table to indulge in the fruits of your labour as you recount the days adventure. In the warmer months, take your experience outdoors with a spot of alfresco dining on the balcony, with the stunning backdrop of the tranquil waters of the River Dart. As the evening grows darker, escape the excitement and head downstairs to the lower garden room where you can delve into the pages of a captivating book, or venture outdoors for a sociable seat in the private garden, and toast a glass of fizz to an unforgettable holiday under the canopy of the stars. When sleep calls, you'll find the first of three bedrooms conveniently located on the ground floor, home to a single bed along with a pull-out, full sized single trundle, perfect for sleepovers for the little ones, or climb to the first floor and choose between a king-size with yet more river views and a twin (can be made into a kingsize on request), each benefiting from their own smart TV so you can catch up from the comfort of the covers. In the morning, kick-start your day with an invigorating rinse in the shower, or add a touch of luxury to your stay with a soak amongst the bubbles in the elegant bathroom before heading out to explore your surroundings. Centrally positioned, a short walk from your doorstep will bring you into the hustle and bustle of Dartmouth, where you'll find a fantastic selection of amenities, such as a handful of boutique and high-street stores along with a delicious selection of eateries. Watch the world go by as you savour fresh fish and chips with a view across the water at Dartmouth Harbour, immerse yourself in the town's fascinating maritime history, home to the famous Britannia Royal Naval College. Dartmouth Museum is an education in seafaring, or discover the remarkable workings of the RNLI at the Visitor Centre Dartmouth. Hire a cabin cruiser and sail the waters of the River Dart, or board a passenger ferry and travel to the nearby village of Kingswear where you can embark on a two-footed adventure along the South West Coast Path toward Kingswear Castle and Brownstone Battery. Pack up your bucket and spade and spend a fun-filled day at the Blue Flag award-winning beach of Blackpool Sands, where you can paddle the shores, feel the sand between your toes as you soak up the sun with your favourite book, or for the hands-on members of your party, why not try your hand at kayaking or rafting? With all of this and more, be sure to choose a stay at 13 Above Town.

    Very close to town center and pub at bottom of stairs. Would 100% stay again. Property needs a bit of TLC though and the downstairs lounge is cold in winter. All the heat goes upstairs could do with a curtain. Few things to fix. Curtain master bedroom and clean window. Master sink not draining. mold in bath master bathroom. frying pans all bent in middle, missing some kitchen utensils, top balcony floor needs cleaning and gullies emptied so not dripping below, door is difficult to open. Gutter down pipe leaking seems to of been wrapped together with elec tape. garden decking rotten on curved edge so wobbles. did have maintenance out as bedroom tv wasn't secure. I guess as end of season these will be seen to over winter.

    The views as expected were fantastic with the whole of Dartmouth harbour spread below you. A very nice week thank you. Our negatives were that there was really no explanation of rubbish disposal. The two guides said the other would detail! And there were no bin bags for towels and sheets, we provided our own. I did mention to a member of staff who phoned me that the bathroom washand basin could do with unblocking as it drains only slowly. Also no protective mattress covers on our bed or one pillow. However none of these detracted from our enjoyable holiday.

    We would return! We had a heatwave week, so all in all a fantastic week.
