Guests say
Amberley is a well-equipped, clean, and comfortable holiday home in Dartmouth with a beautiful garden and convenient on-site parking. Guests appreciate the property's quiet location, stunning views, and the added bonus of seeing steam trains from the house. While the steep walk from town is noted, it is also seen as a good way to keep fit, with alternative transport options available for those less mobile.
Cleanliness
The majority of guests found Amberley to be clean and well-presented. A few mentioned specific issues such as stains on the carpet and a dirty entrance mat, but these appear to be isolated incidents rather than a general trend.
Location
The location is praised for its views and proximity to Dartmouth, though the steep walk back from town is a consistent point of consideration. The quiet residential area and the ability to see steam trains add charm to the location's appeal.
Comfort
Guests generally find the beds comfortable and the house spacious. However, some guests mentioned that the sofas and single beds were uncomfortable, suggesting room for improvement in this area.
Facilities
The house is described as well-equipped with a variety of amenities and a lovely garden. Some guests suggested improvements such as better shower pressure and a gate for easier access to the bus stop. Maintenance issues like a blocked toilet were also noted.

About this property
A well-presented detached house located in a residential cul-de-sac, approximately 10-15 minutes’ walk from Dartmouth's shops, restaurants and tea rooms, within easy reach of the River Dart. Blackpool Sands beach is just a 5-10 minute drive whilst Woodlands Theme Park three miles or so away.
From the driveway, a few steps lead to the main entrance and ground floor hallway with access to the cloakroom and living area, kitchen and utility room and stairs leading up to the first bedrooms and bathrooms.
The modern kitchen is fitted with electric hob and oven, fridge freezer and dishwasher and opens in to the utility room. Door out to the terrace. Adjacent to the kitchen is a dining area seating six comfortably. The light and attractive sitting area has a double sofa, two armchairs, flat screen TV and a feature stone fireplace with sliding French doors that lead out to the terrace and garden.
Four first floor bedrooms in total. The master bedroom has a wooden-framed King-size bed and en suite shower room. The second bedroom has a double bed whilst the third and fourth bedrooms are both singles (suitable for children only). There is a family bathroom with panelled bath shower (over), w.c. and wash-hand basin.
Outside, to the side and rear of the property, is a large area of paved terrace with table and chairs extending out to a large, mature garden. Parking for 1-2 cars on a private driveway.
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.
