Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the stunning Start Bay coastline, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many popular events such as the annual Dart Music Festival, Dartmouth Food Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta. This historic town boasts interesting landmarks, such as Dartmouth Castle, the Britannia Royal Naval College, and the National Trust’s Greenway House just a short ferry ride away. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through the rolling countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat or ferry trip across to Kingswear, on to Brixham, or down the river to the village of Dittisham. For those seeking sandy beaches, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular beaches just a stone's throw from Dartmouth.

    Had a problem with the hot water on arrival but was soon sorted. Was good to see that the tree that used to hang over he hottubhadbeen cut back keeping it cleaner. Would definitely recommend this property

    Will need replacing if not looked after. Light also out on decking. Single bed mattress very poor Noisy fan in front downstairs bedroom making it very noisy in upstairs bedroom. Not been cleaned under the furniture. Cleaning very poor. Lights in lounge dropping. Downstairs bathroom smells of damp. I would suggest ventilation in the water heater/ kitchen storage cupboard. Very hot. BUT overall what a lovely property just a few minors letting it down. Would definitely recommend and return. A bit of TLC and it would deserve full marks.

    Very nicely decorated and the hot tub was lovely although it went cold on the last night and no chemicals in the chemical pot which we were advised to put back into the tub after use. Its such a shame the swimming pool has been taken away as there really isnt much else on the site only the tennis court and play areas. Would be interested in what other devolpments are taking place at hillfield.its a lovely quiet spot and handy for walking to the pub.
