Once part of the major victualling depot of the Royal Navy, this apartment is in a striking stone building on Plymouth’s waterfront. Looking out the window in the living room, you can see just how close you are to the restaurant-lined harbourside as boats float in the water. The old bones of the building are still on display inside and the living room is a comfortable spot to unwind. An upright piano can provide the soundtrack to a seaside escape and the full kitchen has you covered for meals at home. The slanted old ceilings in the bedrooms are a little low in places, but really set the cosy tone.

Home truths:
*This apartment is split across two levels, so it may not suit those with limited mobility.
*At capacity, one person will be on a sofa bed.
*The bedrooms both have sloping ceilings that are low in places.
*While there is ample room for four guests throughout, the dining table is small and would better suit two.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to bring your own linen for the cot.
