  Excellent <br />Quite often, pictures are a limited way of giving you an idea of what you are actually going to experience when you arrive at your destination. The property was more than suitable for our needs and did give us plenty of space and allowed two families to co inhabit without the sense that there was no personal space. The accommodation was well maintained and had everything needed to give you a sense it was an extension of home regarding the facilities it had, including dishwasher tablets! Short of nothing really. It was suitable for the one year old baby who had enough room to move around. On two levels, it allowed us to spread out easily and sleeping arrangements were good, especially with a pull out king size that fitted our 6'.4'' son with ease. It was in the town, which made everything easy to reach and allowed easy local shopping and light strolls to the river front. Only things to consider with this area is the noise level of the seagulls that can effect sleep and we resorted to earplugs when required, especially if the windows were open. I would say that if there was a choice of location and seagulls, the location would win! Dartmouth itself is a lovely, unspoilt area with plenty of interesting sites and excursions like boat trips and steam train to Paignton. You do need the good weather and maybe a good itinerary, although there are endless walks if that's the plan! Overall, an excellent choice for us and would stay here again should we head to this part of the country.

  A lovely apartment ideally located - with a parking permit for a car park a few minutes . Lots of positives - very well equipped , good quality furnishings, spotlessly clean. Has dishwasher , washing machine / dryer. Great range cooker - good size fridge. So very easy to self cater ( excellent deli across the road and M and S food hall a few minutes walk away ). Comfy beds. Great size main bathroom and a second en-suite. Really appreciated hypoallergenic bedding was sourced and provided for us. The “ negatives “ ( well the “ what might you want to know “). The great location does come with some noise - the seagulls providing most of it !!! The top bedroom does get warm ( there is a fan provided ) There are quite a few stairs - around 50 from front door to top bedroom The smallish Tv in living area was a bit “ spotty “ and we had to reset a few times. The lounge area is a strange set up sofa wise if there are more than two of you. That can be seen from photos on the webpage. No welcome pack provided ( fine by us but some might expect tea coffee milk to be there on arrival) Would happily recommend and return.

  Excellent <br />The apartment was absolutely excellent. Over two floors, the apartment is so light and airy with everything you need the flat suited us perfectly. The main bedroom on the top floor was beautiful - a very comfortable bed and the black out blinds on the velux windows worked really well. Excellent power shower with instant hot water. I'd recommend earplugs just for the seagulls if you like to sleep with the windows open (we had 3 seagull chicks and their parents on the roof which was a little noisy). Otherwise such a peaceful apartment right in the middle of the town. Couldn't have been better placed. We bought fresh bread and quiches from across the road in Dart to Mouth - also highly recommend their cream teas! Downstairs the kitchen and living areas were great and the books and games were enjoyed too. Really efficient to get the keys via keypad system on the exterior and parking permit was all easily laid out inside too. Enough space to drop off bags and then park at the nearby car park. Lovely touch to receive the bottle of wine and jam from Bluerivercottages too. An excellent flat and we are looking forward to returning.

  Wonderful Stay <br />Just a quick note to say thank you to all at Blueriver Cottages - we had a fantastic stay in Dartmouth last week (during the heatwave!), in Market View. The property was one of the best we have ever stayed in; it was spotlessly clean, extremely well equipped and beautifully decorated and furnished. It is perfectly appointed too, being right in the centre of the town a very short stroll from shops, pubs, restaurants, and the River Dart. We meant to pop into your office to say hello during our stay, but the time flew by and with two rounds of golf to play(!) and a lot of sightseeing, we ran out of time. We would certainly not hesitate to recommend the property, and Blueriver Cottages, to friends and family, and hope that we will be making a booking with you in the future.

  This last visit was the third for my wife and myself in last three years.

  I hope that speaks volumes. We intend to rebook for next year. The apartment is extremely spacious, well appointed and very comfortable with lovely views to the distant sea and along the coastline. It is situated on the ground floor of the sunny West corner of the building with direct access to the garden, which was ideal for our little dog! I just love swimming off the beautiful sandy beach down the lane at South Milton Sands - some 300 yards away. There is also direct access to the South West Coast Path at the end of the lane there. I recommend a clifftop walk beside the golf links to Bantham and a pub lunch at The Sloop! If you go in the other direction then head over to Hope Cove and a pre-booked lunch at The Lobster Pod in one of their pods.
