Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Dating from the 1930s, this handsome home pairs period charm with contemporary comforts, so you can enjoy an extra-special stay. The characterful rooms offer a warm welcome after windswept walks along the Devon coast. And you can do plenty of those, as the nearest beaches are a ten-minute stroll away, and historic Dartmouth is also walkable from here. After kicking off your hiking shoes, settle in for a cosy evening by the fire or head into the garden for an alfresco dinner. Whatever the season, seaside getaways don’t get much better.

Home truths
While some of the bedrooms and bathrooms aren't photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
One of the bedrooms has a double bed and a single bed. The single is on the smaller side, so only suitable for children.
This home is set over multiple floors, so you'll need to be able to climb stairs here. The garden also has quite a few steps, meaning this might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
While you can walk to nearby beaches and into Dartmouth, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. Free parking is available for up to five cars.
