Gazing Upstream Dartmouth, Devon

Property Description

This cosy cottage in Dittisham is the perfect place to kick back, relax and enjoy the incredible views of the River Dart. If you're anything like us, you'll want to spend every spare moment in the courtyard garden, watching the boats float by. Summer mornings call for coffee and alfresco breakfasts, while evenings are the perfect excuse to pour yourself a glass of wine and admire the South Devon sunsets.

Inside, you can't help but swoon over the comfortable and chic spaces. Unwind with a good book in the window seat, or throw a log on the wood-burner and snuggle up on the leather sofa for a Netflix movie night. For dinner, rustle up something tasty in the kitchen – this area is home to some of the country's best seafood – or head down to the local pub, just one minute away, when you don't fancy cooking.

Speaking of location, you've got the Dart Valley at your fingertips. You're just a stone's throw from the quayside, where you can hop on a ferry to Dartmouth and Greenway. Craving sand and sun? Drive twenty minutes to Blackpool Sands and while away the afternoon by the sea.

Home truths:
*The single beds can be pushed together to create a king-sized bed
*This home isn't suitable for children under 5 years old
*We wouldn't suggest this home for those with limited mobility – it's located near a very steep hill, both bedrooms here are on the first floor and there are stairs leading to the garden
*As is normal in traditional cottages, the height of the doorways and staircase are low
*Upon arrival, you'll be able to check yourself in with a lockbox
*The dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace
*Although parking isn't included, we highly suggest having a car here – however, there is a daily ferry that takes you to Dartmouth and the surrounding villages
