Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
You may want to delicately broach the discussion of which family members to invite here, because the trip will be legendary. Located on the River Dart, this sprawling three-level property accommodates a party of 12. You will have the whole house to yourselves, so act like you own the place. Beyond the plethora of views, there are plenty of seafaring activities to partake in. Cruise the Kingswear Castle Paddle Steamer, go paddleboarding, rent a boat, or just utilize your direct access to the water. On land: picnic, visit nearby castles, museums, the Greenway House (once home to Agatha Christie), or catch the ferry to the historic maritime town of Dartmouth, which is within walking distance. With six bedrooms and plenty of square footage, everyone will have a chance to stretch out and enjoy alone time. The lucky occupants of two bedrooms on the mid level will have direct access to the balcony terrace. When it’s time to gather for conversation or a meal, there are so many options; from tons of communal space to the remarkable outdoor dining setup. This classic seaside structure is pompous in a good way.
