Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the stunning Start Bay coastline, 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 popular events such as the annual Dart Music Festival, Dartmouth Food Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta. This historic town boasts interesting landmarks, such as Dartmouth Castle, the Britannia Royal Naval College, and the National Trust’s Greenway House just a short ferry ride away. 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 the rolling countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat or ferry trip across to Kingswear, on to Brixham, or down the river to the village of Dittisham. For those seeking sandy beaches, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands, both extremely

The positive things were the amazing views from every window, the extremely well equipped kitchen, a comfortable sitting room with drinks fridge and good access to TV channels. The things that could be better were the steps and outside area to the front door. It would give a better initial impression if it were cleaner, tidier and weed free. The mattresses were a bit tired and therefore uncomfortable, there was a drain smell in the main bathroom and loo seat, for male users, would not stay upright. Some curtains had hooks missing and the blind fitting and window in the top room appeared to be broken. We had an issue in that the back door lock jammed and we lost a whole day where we would have liked to sit out on the balcony to relax in the lovely unseasonal sunshine. It was on a Sunday and the agent's office was closed. It was however pointed out that there was an emergency number to call. The agent dealt with the issue in a timely manner once the matter was reported although I'd suggest it would be better to get the door fixed to avoid other visitors experiencing the same problem. For people with mobility issues or over a certain age, the very steep flights of stairs (over four floors) would be challenging, plus the property is quite far out of the town up quite challenging hills (hence the amazing views). There is however a bus.

Despite all the stairs the house was comfortably furnished & very clean. The garage housed one car(an Astra) & we were lucky enough to find a parking spot about 10/15 minutes walk away. The walk down into Dartmouth was fine & we used the local bus service back up the hill to the property, well worth the £2 fare person! Plenty of places to eat in the evening which were very dog friendly. The wifi was good for 2 of our party who were WFH. Very enjoyable stay, only improvement would have been the use of a small bbq & more settled weather!

I should have taken more notice of the warning of steep stairs, being old I did find those difficult, not so my daughter and granddaughter! The views from the windows were fantastic. A little disappointed not to find a welcome pack as I have found in other cottages. I would recommend using the bus or park and ride for going into the town, parking is difficult.
