Dartwood House Reviews

Barbara
A comfortable house in a fabulous position giving wonderful views of the Dart and Dartmouth.
Jayne
Had a fantastic week here. The home was spotless, lots of room and the most amazing views. Great communication from Holiday Cottages, very professional. Kingswear is lovely with 2 local pubs, who served great food, a wine bar, cafes and local shop. There is a ferry over to Dartmouth and the Steam Train to Paignton. Note though that Kingswear is very hilly. This is great for views but may be difficult for people with mobility difficulties. There is a pay and display car park on the Marina which we used for the ferry, shop, pubs etc as my elderly parents couldn't walk up and down the hill, so an easy way around this issue.
Amanda
As always this is a fabulous location and fabulous accommodation. We never tire of it and we are back again for Christmas. Wouldn't want to stay anywhere else.
Amanda
Dartwood is a wonderful property and is one of the best holiday homes we have stayed in. We would definitely come again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our family weekend and everything was perfect. Even down to the cupboards having everything we could need, and more. The complimentary basket of goodies was a lovely touch. The view is stunning by day and even more special at night. Thank you.
