Guests appreciate the apartment's prime location, stunning views, and overall cleanliness. The terrace is a highlight, offering a wonderful outdoor space. However, there are recurring comments about the comfort of the sofas and beds, and the need for better kitchen equipment and maintenance of facilities.
The apartment is consistently described as spotlessly clean, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that guests value.
The apartment's location is praised for being ideal and offering great views, suggesting a very desirable and convenient setting.
Comfort is a concern for several guests, with repeated mentions of uncomfortable sofas and beds, which detracted from the overall experience.
Facilities are adequate but there are issues with maintenance, such as chipped crockery and technical problems with the TV and shower door. Kitchen equipment is noted as lacking.
There is no mention of gifts or additional thoughtful touches in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.
Boasting a truly breath-taking setting overlooking the River Dart and its marina in the heart of Dartmouth, Devon is 30 Dart Marina. This beautiful, ground-floor apartment benefits from a spacious, open-plan interior, two sumptuous bedrooms, a spacious, private terrace with garden furniture and spectacular views of the river as well as an ideal local close to local amenities in the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with Dartmoor National Park a short drive away; an ideal choice for families, friends, or couples. After a day full of exploration, cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and head straight into the open-plan living space where you can unwind on the plush sofas in front of the TV while the designated chef of the group gets acquainted with the fully-equipped kitchen. Sample these culinary delights around the dining table or take advantage of the riverside terrace, by dining alfresco with the Dart Marina and river providing an unforgettable and picturesque backdrop. Admire the sun as it sets and stars take over before heading back inside to freshen up in the sleek bathroom, then choose between a king-size with en-suite or a twin bedroom to catch up on your rest in. During the day, take a short walk into the centre of Dartmouth where you can pick up self-catering essentials, browse independent shops or enjoy a break from the kitchen with a meal out at The Royal Castle, the 14th-century Cherub Inn, or the Dartmouth Arms. Follow the river along to the impressive riverside ruins of Dartmouth Castle or to find Sugary Cove Beach where you can admire breath-taking views across the estuary. Hope on a riverboat and head across to Kingswear where you can tour Kingswear Castle, spot the iconic Dragon’s Tail or explore the beloved holiday home of Agatha Christie, Greenway. Venture inland to explore Totnes, its beautiful Norman Castle and its museum or amble around Dartington Hall Gardens; Dartmoor National Park is also nearby housing endless walks and trails with breath-taking views. All this and more awaits at 30 Dart Marina.
Dartmouth, a popular and lovely town in South Devon, is located on the banks of the River Dart estuary. Dartmouth is a major tourist attraction in Devon due to its proximity to the shore and the fact that it is located inside an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The town hosts many yearly events, including the Dart Music Festival, the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, and the Dartmouth Food Festival, all of which take use of the town's beautiful waterfront and historic, winding alleys dotted with boutique shops, restaurants, and art galleries. The South West Coast Way, the Dart Valley Trail, and many peaceful rural lanes make the area around Dartmouth ideal for bicycling and walking. The Dartmouth Steam Railway ride through the countryside to Paignton is a must, as is the boat ride over to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a lovely small harbour town. Blackpool Sands, winner of the Blue Flag Award, and Slapton Sands, a popular beach not far from Dartmouth, are just two of many options for beachgoers in the South Hams area. A tranquil spot in the heart of South Devon.

Nor how we should leave used bedding etc. this meant contacting the local office and them coming to the flat. Not the best start to a holiday. Carl who did come to the flat was pleasant and helpful,but was a waste of his time. The folder would have saved all that

BUT, the negative comments in the On-line reviews have not been remedied - there is still lots of chipped crockery, the beds are uncomfortable and there are no serving dishes. On top of these, this week, the TV did not get any BBC channels and the shower door makes an incredibly loud cracking sound when being opened - we called a C&C maintenance person who shot a video of it , but neither issues were corrected during our stay. It made us think about who is actually responsible for correcting the problems which are mounting up......how many negative reviews will there be?
