Above and behind the house is National Trust Land with direct access." Gallants Bower" is a famous local walk leading to hidden coves and sandy beaches.
The Pottery has a wonderful communal area used for car parking and for children to play out and scoot about on scooters and bikes. Parental supervision is a must. There is a small infrequently used road alongside the Pottery development where you can directly access the creek and thereon the River Dart. Our children run down to feed the ducks, watch for seals and picnic there on summer nights. Watching the boats returning in the evening with the light on the water is a favourite pastime.
You can walk to Dartmouth Castle in under 5 minutes from the house. Catch a ferry into town for shopping or eating and catch a water taxi home at night if you don't fancy the walk home. The road to the town runs above the river Dart along a well trodden pavement and the moon on the water on the way home at night is a special experience.

The West Country / Devon region


South Devon is known for having a temperate climate with water temperatures reaching up to 70 degrees by the end of the season. Artists love this area for the colours and fabulous light.
The coastal towns of Salcombe and Dartmouth and the vibrant inland market towns of Totnes and Kingsbridge, are well worth a visit as part of your South Devon holiday.
Dartmouth has a thriving, dynamic community and is renowned as a popular destination for visitors seeking rest, recreation and inspiration.
The Dartmouth / Warfleet area
Offering fabulous views of the river, narrow lanes, stairways and corridors - Dartmouth is a must. The town has a reputation for good food - with many fine restaurants. Then there's Foss Street with eclectic shops and art galleries.
The market square with the Friday fish market is fun too .
Ancient buildings abound. The Cherub Inn (1380) and The Butterwalk (1628) which includes the Dartmouth Museum, are two of the oldest . The Royal Regatta, during August, with sailing and rowing competitions plus spectacular airbourne displays, often including the Red Arrows, is a world famous event.
Hop on the picnic boat for lunch on the river. Jump on the ferry over to Kingswear to catch a steam train or simply enjoy the stunning river views from your cottage.
Lounge on the privately owned beach at Blackpool Sands. Catch a movie at the Flavel Centre or have a night in catered by our own private cook.
Tesco even deliver direct to the cottage!

We had a wonderful week at Pottery Cottages - everything we needed was readily available, with lots of very thoughtful 'extras' that made all the difference. We loved exploring the area, walking to the town, the castle, and the beautiful creek just down the lane. Pretty sure we'll be back! |

Lovely place to saty with parking which is a real bonus in Dartmouth. Near enough to the town to walk so car only needed for trips to supermarket |

I shared the house with my sister and her family and we had a great time. There was plenty of room for all of us. The four bedrooms were all a good size. It was a short very sceanic walk into town where my son went crabbing most evenings. There are beaches just a short drive away and my sister even went to the Eden Project which she greatly enjoyed. It was good having a flexible starting date and Mandy accomodated us very willingly. The house was spotless when we arrived and we felt like we were in a home from home it was so cosy and had every amenity you could want. Having a parking space was an excellent bonus as it is very hard to find a parking space in Dartmouth. |
