The decor was superb. Everything you needed was inside. Stairs could be an issue with some people. We are 70 and 80 managed it. It was only for three nights !! . Oh, could do with a mattress cover and maybe a little topper to make it a bit softer?...

Beautiful cottage in an excellent location, right in the centre of town, in a very quiet street. Captain's Cottage is a traditional cottage but refurbished in a lovely modern style. It's very well equipped, very nicely furnished, and very clean.

Location was very good - the car parking away from the property wasn’t difficult and added charm when you realise the property is very central to everything.

Property information

Captains Cottage is a newly renovated gem tucked away in the heart of Dartmouth, just off the charming shopping lane of Foss Street. This cute yet stylish cottage has a fun nautical theme, cleverly set out over three floors with maximum comfort in mind. The master bedroom boasts a super-kingsize bed, and the bathroom includes a very large walk-in shower. Start the day refreshed in the large kitchen-diner. Then return to the bright, airy first-floor lounge to relax above the bustling town below.

Neighbourhood information

Dartmouth is a town steeped in maritime history, from the castle at the mouth of the river that has stood for over 600 years to the cobbled quayside at Bayards Cove where the Mayflower was made ship-shape before its voyage from Plymouth to America in the 1600s, up to the imposing Britannia Royal Naval College overlooking the town, defending the nation's seas since the early 1900s. Dartmouth's renowned variety of shops and restaurants are on your doorstep, including breakfast and brunch hotspot Café Alf Resco - a hit with locals and visitors alike. At Bayards Cove, see where final repairs were made to the Mayflower before she set sail from Plymouth and onto America. On the riverside, you're spoilt for choice for seafood dining and drinks while you watch the boats drift along the river. There are also fast, frequent ferries, leisurely boat rides, and not forgetting the steam train from Kingswear and its romantic route along the valley shoreline and onto Totnes and Torbay. Dining Out Vibrant cafés and delis, cosy inns, and sublime seafood - all within walking distance - including TV chef Mitch Tonks' go-to restaurants, ‘The Seahorse’ and ‘Rockfish’. Local favourites include Kendrick’s and Taylor's in the town centre, as well as hearty pub meals at The Floating Bridge and historic The Dartmouth Arms. The Sportsman’s Arms, as you head out of town, is a favourite for a Sunday carvery. The surrounding villages also have culinary gems, such as the Laughing Monk in Strete, and Radius 7 in Stoke Fleming. Shopping Individual and independent; quaint meets quality - browsing Dartmouth’s locally run stores is a treat. From bespoke jewellery to designer fashion, eye-catching artworks and stylish boutiques. Venture into Foss Street and lose yourself in its variety - you’re bound to come away with a memento of your stay. Towns to explore The eclectic market town of Totnes is 14 miles from Dartmouth. Reach it by road or river to enjoy its broad mix of...
