About this property

High Banks is a stunning, detached property with views across Warfleet Creek to the River Dart and Kingswear on the opposite side, on the edge of this coastal town of Dartmouth. With fabulous walking and cycling opportunities in every direction and a network of attractions to suit all tastes, make the most of this wonderful, Devon retreat with your family or a group of friends. You have four lower ground floor bedrooms to choose from, including two doubles, a twin and a king-size double, each enjoying the views and ample storage space. The master bedroom has its own en-suite, while the family bathroom is well-appointed for those early morning showers or long hot soaks after a bracing walk on the South West Coast Path. Spend some time with your loved ones in the sitting area watching the TV before moving across to the dining area for a scrumptious, home-cooked meal at the dining table, which can be rustled up in the well-appointed kitchen. Slide open the patio doors on a warm summer's day to let a cool breeze through or step out onto the balcony to truly appreciate your location by relaxing on the furniture with a drink and ooze in the coastal atmosphere. Take in the views across the river and listen out for the sounds of coastal wildlife down at Warfleet Creek or within Gallants Bower woodland across the way. Explore the many shops, pubs and eateries within the town centre, venture to Dartmouth Castle for even more stunning views out over the estuary and discover fabulous walking and cycling in the area. Climb aboard the Dartmouth Steam Railway, which takes you through picturesque scenery to Paignton and find a plethora of beaches for days out with all the family. High Banks makes the ideal base for a varied holiday in South Devon.

Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, 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 local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. 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 picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.
