What our customers say about their holidays

  We absolutely loved staying here!

  It was wonderful to be so central to Dartmouth and yet feel quite private amongst the rooftops. And of course the views were amazing. Everything in the property was well thought out and the kitchen was equipped appropriately and everything worked well. It is bijou, but perfectly furnished. Though there are steps up to the property, we did not find them troublesome and enjoyed the fact that the property was tucked away. The parking permit was a godsend allowing us to park in the central car park. Parking in Dartmouth is difficult at best and the roads are quite tiny. In peak months you can park for two hours directly outside the property (at the bottom of the steps) which was helpful when dropping off luggage and on the morning of departure. It was a beautifully hot week and the bedrooms were cool with the windows open and upstairs too which created a lovely breeze. I did see another comment about the visibility through the small window in the front door which I initially didn’t think much about, but can now agree that a small curtain there would be ideal. If, as we did, you sleep with the crew bedroom door open to allow the room to stay cool on a hot night, you are in fact potentially on view to those coming down the steps outside. We managed to rig up a towel to create privacy, but a small curtain would be an easy solution. This did not detract from our overall delight in staying here and would fully recommend the property and we definitely hope to return.

  This is an excellent holiday let. While the furniture style is a little dated, the property was very clean and comfortable. The balcony is an excellent feature with great views across the River Dart to Warfleet and out towards Dartmouth Castle and the sea. It gets the sun from morning to late evening in the spring and summer months, a great place for breakfast or a sundowner. The huge picture window also brings light in on a dull or wet day. There's lots of steep slopes and steps to access the property, so it would be a challenge for anyone with limited mobility and I wouldn't bother trying to get your car up the steep driveway, so be prepared to carry your bags to and from the car wherever you park, but this wasn't an issue for us. Beacon Road is especially narrow, so larger cars might struggle to get through, but pull your wing mirrors in and take it steady and most cars will get through. Given we were walking the coastal paths, the access to the property was just another slope to add to the beginning and end of the day. The property is a couple of minutes walk away from all the excellent amenities in Kingswear, just a short walk to the Lower Ferry, the railway station, the Ship Inn and the Petit Pantry and just a little further walk to the excellent convenience store. All in all an excellent property and we will definitely be back.

  Very clean, lovely pictures and plants etc around the apartment, super comfy bed, and located in an ideal position for us, within walking distance to Dartmouth but close to Warfleet Creek to get away from the bustle of the town and walk down to the creek every evening for a quiet drink and sit and listen to the birds. We had no hot water for the last three days, but after reading in the apartment details it would probably take a day to get back to us and discuss our problem, and it had to be an emergency, we decided not to bother as we would then have had only a day left of our holiday. The details in the handbook need updating, vis, incorrect server details for logging on, hob information incorrect, the wrong name of the acomodation was printed on one of the pages, all of this didn't spoil our holiday and we would choose the apartment again as it was clean and comfy and in the right place for us. The details in the handbook could be easily rectified and would add, rather than detract from the company's ratings.

  The fact that we booked up to stay here again next year as soon as we got home tells you all you need to know. The location is perfect for anyone looking to explore the area, the property is compact, but warm and comfortable and designed for maximum use of the space available. The views from the living area and bedroom are just wonderful and the location – down a tiny, no-through country lane – made it a quiet and peaceful stay, and gave us a perfect short walk for the dog in the evening. We had a few problems sorting out the TV, and clearer instructions would be helpful for oldies like us. You also need to be modestly agile to get out of the window side of the bed in the night. But those two inconsequential inconveniences aside, it was just perfect. The milk, biscuits and wine were a nice touch, and it was well equipped. And great value for money too! Highly recommended.

  5 The Pottery was a fantastic place to stay in Devon. The location was fantastic, and the property was clean and spacious. We had a very comfortable stay and would love to go back some day. Just a small note to guests about what is and isn't available at the property would be useful when they pack. We packed a few things that were available at the property such as hair dryer, but didn't pack any toilet paper as we thought there would be enough for the number of days we had booked. There was only one in each bathroom, and we had to find a store that was open on a Sunday evening (Co-op was within walking distance) to buy more. For a longer stay, especially with children, it would be useful to know ahead of time what to take.
