Guests say
The Nest in Dartmouth is praised for its cleanliness, modern decoration, and central location with lovely views. Guests appreciate the comfortable beds and the property's proximity to shops, restaurants, and the harbour. Some concerns are raised about the steep access and parking limitations, but the overall experience is positive, with many guests willing to return.
Guests consistently note the property as 'very clean', 'well maintained', and 'immaculately presented', indicating high standards of cleanliness.
The central location is highly praised for its convenience to the town, harbour, shops, and restaurants. However, parking challenges slightly affect the score.
The comfort of the beds is frequently complimented, and the property is described as cosy and quiet. Some guests suggest improvements in seating comfort.
The property is well-received for its aesthetic decor and essential amenities. However, comments about missing washing machine tablets, light bulbs, and kitchenware indicate room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
While guests mention 'lovely little touches', there is no specific reference to gifts, and therefore it is not possible to assess thoughtfulness in this context.
About this property
Resting in the ever-popular town of Dartmouth, within the picturesque South Hams AONB in South Devon, is The Nest, a delightful third-floor apartment within a stones throw of the River Dart and just moments from the bustling high street. The apartment has been wonderfully presented and serves as a great base for couples seeking an unforgettable pursuit to Devon. After a day of sightseeing, look forward to relaxing on the comfortable sofa and flicking through the TV channels, reflecting upon the day’s activities with thoughts of where to head next. A large dormer window provides picturesque views across the river to Kingswear and towards Dartmouth Castle, tempting your exploration further. Cross over to the quaint yet well-equipped kitchen and really make the most of the space, offering an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge and even a washing machine, so you won’t have to pack all your clothes. A romantic dinner can be enjoyed at the dining table or book a restaurant within the town; there’s plenty to choose from. Finishing off the interior of this charming apartment is an inviting double bedroom served by a gleaming shower room, finished with bath and shower over so you can pick how best to start the day. When you’re ready to explore, meander the narrow streets lined with boutique shops and art galleries before making your way down to the waterfront where you can watch the boats bob with tide, and even hire your own boat if you wish to take to the water yourself. The town hosts a number of festivals throughout the year including the Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October, providing something for everyone! Venture along the South West Coast Path and immerse yourself in scenic splendour or pop off your walking boots and sink your toes into the golden sands of Sugary Cove Beach, providing you with a moment of true relaxation. Hop on board the Dartmouth Steam Railway towards Paignton, encompassing unspoilt Devonshire countryside along the way, and pay a visit to Paignton Zoo, home to over 2000 animals and 300 species. However you choose to spend your time, The Nest provides an excellent touring base for discovering Dartmouth and the Devonshire coastline.
Dartmouth is a popular holiday destination positioned in south Devon and lying on the banks of the River Dart, near to where the mouth of the river meets the sea. A yachting enthusiast's paradise, there is so much to see here from the beautiful marina, to the interesting local shops, to the home of the Britannia Royal Naval College. Enjoy sampling delicious food at the many restaurants, go for an evening drink at one of the stylish, quirky bars, or delight in whipping up your own creation with fresh local produce.

The ad did mention third floor accommodation but the 49 steps to get there would be testing for most. Parking in Dartmouth is very difficult if you want to leave your car for a couple of days without use. There is nowhere that offers 24 hour parking!

Had to park in park & ride which wasnât very convenient. There were two light bulbs not working (one in kitchen & one in bedroom) plus only one teaspoon provided & no tall drinking glasses.
