This beautiful village retreat offers a light and fresh interior with easy access to the South West Coast Path and remarkable views at every turn. Spend your days exploring the sand dunes, cliff-top trails and rugged Dartmoor National Park before returning to this pretty base, sleeping six guests and one pampered pooch.

Feel an instant sense of calm as you enter this quintessentially coastal home, featuring whitewashed exposed stone walls and sash windows. Soak up muted beach tones and nautical themes as your four-legged friend basks in the open-plan living space in front of the wood burner. When it’s time to eat, make your way into the kitchen to find a selection of handy appliances for putting together delicious dinners before perching around the dining table. Unwind with an after-dinner drink on the stunning terrace up a set of steep steps, which provides spectacular views across Kingswear and the River Dart, and watch as your furry friend sniffs out their new snoozing spot. When it's time for humans to hit the hay, three stylishly designed bedrooms provide a good night's sleep, while a chic bathroom soaks off the day's adventures.

Just a short walk from this property you'll find yourself right in the heart of the quaint village of Kingswear. This charming character hamlet sits on the east side of the River Dart and boasts cute, brightly-coloured houses, local shops, welcoming pubs and the National Trust property, Coleton Fishacre. There are plenty of pet-pleasing walks nearby, including a route across the cliff-top and Little Dartmouth (3.5 miles), a rugged trail which paves the way to an old Civil War hillfort boasting 360-degree views of the town. While some seasonal dog restrictions apply on Blackpool Sands (5 miles), a trip to Strete Gate Beach (7 miles) provides golden sands where pooches are welcome all year round.

Cozy little cottage, fully equipped and very clean in a quiet but central location for getting the ferry over to Dartmouth. Couple of pubs, a sweet little Italian bar and a general store all within walking distance of the cottage.

Gorgeous fisherman's cottage. Realistically a little too small for 6 people, more suitable for 4. Very clean and welcoming. Lovely modernisation. Upstairs twin beds not large enough for adults and uncomfortable. The house is marketed as dog-friendly, but there was no outside space for a dog. Beautiful setting.

Fantastic location in the heart of Kingswear, quiet and comfortable. It is pleasantly furnished and only a short walk to the car park (we paid 56.25 for a week's pass). Excellent space for 3-4 adults to be honest. Access to the lower ferry and train station is easy. The Ship Inn, about 30m away, is under new management, serving delightful range of Read morefood. Higher Street is narrow, and difficult to access with a large car, but it's a short 40m from a reasonably safe place to park for unloading. Hide

Upstairs bedrooms are very pretty and enjoyed sitting in the window seat looking out to the river dart. We attempted the steps and loved the view. The garden terrace was full of lovely colourful flowers We will stay again next year!
