Description
Offering a fabulous three-storey property in the heart of South Devon's popular riverside town of Dartmouth, Huffin is a wonderful base for a holiday exploring the South Hams.
Being just a short stroll from the town centre and enjoying a balcony for al fresco dining, Huffin is perfect for a relaxing break in Dartmouth.
Enter the property from the street and be welcomed onto the first floor, where a king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room awaits.
Travel down the staircase to the ground floor to find the lovely open-plan living space, here you can relax on the large corner sofa in the evenings watching the Smart TV or playing a DVD, enjoy meals at the dining table when you're not eating out, and make use of the well-equipped, neat kitchen area.
Sit out on the balcony, which benefits from afternoon and evening sun, sipping a refreshing drink after a day of exploring.
Head down a further flight of stairs to the lower ground floor and discover the kingsize bedroom and the family shower room with a large walk-in shower.
As an alternative to the en suite bedroom on the entrance level, there is a further bedroom with bunkbeds.
Step out onto the streets of Dartmouth and begin exploring, find out about the history of the town via the Dartmouth Mayflower Heritage Trail, split into three sections, this trail was created to mark the 400th anniversary of the sailing of the Mayflower, painting a picture of Dartmouth in the 17th century via a 21st century app you can download to your phone for a self-guided tour!
Discover Dartmouth Castle on The Castle Trail and be amazed by this 15th century fortress still standing tall watching over the mouth of the River Dart.
Head out on the river yourself with Sea Kayak Devon and take a guided sea kayak tour of the waters, or choose to hire a boat and cruise along the waters at your leisure.
The Royal Avenue Gardens are the perfect place for a picnic, with a beautiful ornate stone fountain from 1897, which commemorates Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee, and an abundance of flower beds and shrubs.
The gorgeous shingle beach of Blackpool Sands is a just a short drive from Dartmouth and is one of the country's favourite beaches.
The South West Coast Path presents an easy way to explore the idyllic coast, with lots more coastal villages and towns along the way to admire, including Dittisham, Stoke Fleming, and Slapton.
Huffin is a charming base for a delightful stay in Dartmouth.

What guests are saying
Good all round holiday.
Property fun to use. Dartmouth a lovely place visit would recommend
Great location to town (on an incline so may not suit all) a bit tight on the road coming in but we purposely took our smaller car as read from the reviews.
Kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were very comfortable and showers were good too. Place was spotlessly clean. We even got to use the balcony when the rain stopped which was a nice touch. The collection of keys was easy as a short walk into town once we had parked. Very handy to have a M&S food hall nearby as we ate mostly in the accommodation (great to have a dishwasher!) We went as 2 couples. There is only parking for one car, so we parked the other car at the park and ride as there are parking restrictions on roads and local car parks. The double bedroom on the top floor is quite bijou but was fine for a couple of nights, the comfy bed and powerful shower made up for it! We all agreed the property was nicer than we were expecting, so a bonus and if we ever returned to Dartmouth we would definitely come back.
Getting the keys was extremely frustrating.
It took four phone calls to sort out. Anyone with anything bigger than a saloon car would struggle with the width of the road leading to the property, and parking was very tight. The instructions for cleaning before leaving were very precise, and if the tools needed had been available it would have been fine. However, there was only a handheld hoover (the type used for cleaning a car). As the lounge area is large and carpeted, this meant cleaning on your hands and knees. There was no broom, and a search of the whole house for a hairdryer proved fruitless. On the plus side, the property was okay for a short stay because we didn’t want to keep going out. If you plan to go out daily, navigating the narrow roads would be difficult.
