About the home

Dartmouth. Balcony. River views. Internet.

Breathtaking river views from lounge & balcony. Panoramic riverside location. Less than 2 mins walk to town, harbour, quaint historic taverns, restaurants & great shops.

We recently asked a guest if he felt the property matched up to the advert and our own info.
His response was: "Your advert could have made more of the incredible views from lounge and balcony and the superb location in terms of convenient, easy access to everything Dartmouth has to offer".

Well, we thought we had mentioned that in the advert but we'll let his comments emphasise those points!

Awards

The West Country / Devon region

There is a wealth of things see and do in the West Country as well as having some of the most breathtaking scenery in the United Kingdom, it has several award winning beaches to relax on. The climate during the summer is often balmy as the Gulf Stream warms the seas in the area, makes for excellent surfing and other water based pursuits. As far as attractions are concerned there is the Eden Project a vast eco-project with huge bio-domes to explore which offer many species from around the world as well as plenty for kids to do.

The Dartmouth area

Dartmouth with its beautiful old-world centre is considered the capital of the South Hams, famous for peaceful rolling countryside, renowned coastline, excellent beaches (Blue Flag status) & coastal walks along footpaths leading to secluded beaches.

Dartmouth’s focal point is its bustling harbour and broad, wooded river. The town is designated a Conservation Area with 16th and 17th century timbered buildings, historic narrow streets, beautiful old shops, intimate pubs and excellent restaurants. Beach lovers will enjoy Sugary Cove near Dartmouth Castle as well as the beautiful Blackpool Sands and the long, unspoilt expanse of beach at Slapton Sands both of which are approximately 10 minutes drive.

Numerous attractions include the outdoor pool, pleasure cruises upriver to Totnes; Sailing or hiring motor boats for exploring the river or fishing; taking the Kingswear car ferry across to Torbay’s more bustling resorts of Brixham, Paignton and Torquay (10-15 minutes) or travelling on the restored steam train running between Kingswear and Paignton.

In August, Dartmouth hosts The Royal Regatta with funfair, sporting events, fireworks dispays and an array of boats. Some of the great beach destinations include Slapton, Torcross, Hope Cove, Beesands, Prawle, Salcombe, Bantham (surfing) Modbury and Thurlestone.

Recommended day trips include the estuary towns of Totnes and Kingsbridge, the riverfront village of Dittisham, a trip to scenic Dartmoor, a visit to the superb Plymouth Aquarium, a day at the truly superb Paignton Zoo or Woodlands Leisure Park.

For fishing enthusiasts there are plenty of opportunities to go out to sea and fish for flat fish, bream, pollock, bass and mackerel. Sharks and Conger Eel are also caught regularly. Fesh water fishermen have abundant opportunities for both coarse and game fishing in well stocked reservoirs or on river beats.

“A lovely, comfortable little upside down house with fantastic views” Dartmouth is a wonderful place to holiday and Dart View is perfectly placed to make the most of everything the town has to offer. The balcony is a real sun trap in the morning, and the views are to die for. I have already booked it again for next year!

“All too short a stay!” “A note of gratitude for the all too short rental of DartView, we had a great time.We enjoyed staying there, the location was perfect and the house itself was very comfortable! I think what impressed us most was the fact the place seemed 'lived in' and wasn't just furnished for visiting surfers with flip flops on! The overall quality of everything was more than we usually find and very much appreciated! We were exceptionally lucky with the weather and re-discovered South Hams, something I haven't done since childhood. p.s. The information pack was consulted on many occasions and was very helpful!

“Dart View - what a find!” This charming townhouse affords THE most fabulous views over the river and manages to be cosy and comfortable whilst still offering all the mod cons that are essential for a family holiday. My 6 year old son said he loved the 'beautiful upside-down house' - the lounge is on the top floor with a lovely plump sofa and chair and is the perfect spot to relax and watch the world go by. The kitchen is well-equipped – not that you'll want to use it much because there are some fantastic take-away restaurants within easy reach of the house. The location is very convenient – less than a minute and you're amidst shops and restaurants and you can hop on a river boat cruise or pop across to Kingswear and take a steam train. We parked the car up opposite the property and didn't use it all week – there was so much to do on the river and so many lovely walks nearby. We had a great holiday and we're looking forward to a return visit next year!

“Apartment with stunning view” Information from the owners prior to and after booking was very good and acccurate. The property is excellent with comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, good shower, and balcony on which to sit and have breakfast or a drink, while enjoying the view and river traffic. The location is good being close to carpark, shops, pubs and restaurants. We loved the views but would have appreciated a table on the balcony for breakfast and the cushion on the chair by the French window kept slipping forward when I was sitting there reading or watching TV ( only an extremely minor quibble though). We had great two breakfasts at Alf's and fantastic evening meals at the Dartmouth Apprentice ( just across the road) and the Royal Castle Hotel long bar. We had a fabulous day taking the boat trip to Totnes and back but missed the trip to Salcombe due to our bad planning. We will just have to visit again! Response: Many thanks for the comments. Really glad you enjoyed your stay so much. Will try to explain the rationale re balcony furniture: After many years, we've now evolved to having just chairs on the balcony. We know this won't please everyone but ... consistent feedback from visitors shows a preference for maximising the space on the balcony rather than taking up some of it with a table. The other slightly more practical issue is that in summer, it can be (really) difficult for us and for guests to keep a table clean / hygienic as tables (for some reason it's always tables more so than anything else) very often get covered (and we do mean 'covered') in seagull poo. Not just once or twice in a week but almost repeatedly. Sounds comical but really isn't. So, it's a compromise but one which seems to work. Many thanks.

“Third Time at Dartview” Everything was as good as we remembered. Another relaxing and very enjoyable stay. Dartmouth and South Devon generally is somewhere we love - it's a special location and this property allows us to be close to everything (one minute to nearest shops, pub), enjoy the fantastic river views and yet not be somewhere noisy or busy. There's a feeling of 'home from home' for us and we like the fact there's a balcony for outside space. Looking forward to another trip .

“We enjoyed Dartmouth we enjoyed this property-Dartview” We travelled from Germany and visited in April when the weather was a little mixed but we had a great week. The town is very interesting and beautiful. We were really comfortable in DartView and liked this property a lot. Being able to see the river and all the “river life” (from inside the property and on terrace) was so interesting. The property was clean and we had good dealings with the owner and good information etc.

“excellent is not good enough!” What a fantastic holiday home - absolutely everything you could want in a two-bedroomed compact townhouse conversion. The balcony gives the brilliant views up and down the river with something going on all the time. So convenient for shops(1 min walk) co-op stocking everything, 1 min to ferry to Kingswear, lovely walk up to castle and Little Dartmouth and pub just down the steps of the house! We also had sunshine all the time - wore the dog (and us) out but plenty of eating places on doorstop or a few miles out if wanting to use car. Parking permit a fantastic bonus as we didn't have to pay for parking. Thanks very much - hopefully we will be back Response: Many thanks for the review. Much appreciated. Glad you were so lucky with the weather last week. Might be useful for readers if we explain the respective locations of DartView and the excellent, nearby Dartmouth Arms pub (the “DA”). The DA is down on Bayards Cove by the river embankment. It can be easily reached from the property by either (a) using the short path (linking the street we're on to Lower Street and the embankment)then turning right to Bayards Cove (less than sixty seconds) or (b) one can walk down our street, turn right onto Lower Street and walk along to Bayards Cove (slightly longer walk say two minutes). Thanks.

“Conveniently located and wonderful views” We love staying at Dartview, very restful and quiet. We spend lots of time wandering round Dartmouth and simply looking at the view which is fascinating even at night. Once unloaded parking can be tricky so we use the main car park near M&S then walk the few minutes to the property. Response: Many thanks for the review. Greatly appreciated and glad you enjoyed this repeat visit! Noted the comment about parking and thought it might be useful (for readers) to point out that between Oct 1st and May 1st there are no parking restrictions on most of the streets (including the one this property is on) thus it's rare that one cant get parked outside or …in a street very close by and …during the summer months (when many streets have restrictions) we have provided a parking permit for the last seven years and would hope to continue this (although this will always be an issue under the control of the District Council). Thanks again.

“Great place to stay for a Dartmouth holiday, wonderful views, brilliant location.” Had been meaning to stay in Dartmouth for a while but Dartview had been booked both times when we tried before, glad we prsevered. We had a great holiday there. The photos we'd seen previously were accurate. The property was well cleaned and we felt very comfortable, the location and river views were very special. We had several great meals out in Dartmouth and generally enjoyed the whole Devon coastal scene. Am looking forward to another visit.

“Cosy and welcoming” This was a repeat visit for us to DartView. It's a lovely break for us and there's a real sense of home-from-home for us when we go. Well equipped, clean, comfortable and ideally located to take advantage of the river views and also the town itself. Great weekend, great weather and familiar, comfortable turf - your place and Dartmouth are sooooo relaxing! Recommended for: Tourists without a Car, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers

“we have holidayed for many years at dartview” We have had many lovely holidays staying at Dartview. The flat is very comfortable with everything you need.It is just a minute away from the embankment where you can take a stroll and very close to many restaurants and shops, BUT the icing on the cake are the fantastic fantastic views from the flat, with a large balcony for sunbathing or just for watching the busy life on the river. Great accommodation!!

“Great view, great location, great town!” Dart View House is situated less that two minutes walk from both Dartmouth historic town centre, and the Dart River. The balcony offers increadible views over the Dart River down to Dartmouth Castle,... more
