“Fantastic. Better than even the pictures.”

Feels remote and quiet yet accessible to all best spots, walks and attractions. Immaculate. We had an excellent time. Thx.

“Access to the property down an unmade track was challenging to say the least and with an automatic car (fortunately with good ground clearance) that was fully loaded and towing a trailor, it was quite a challenge in the rain to make it up when we left.”

Top quality. Had a fantastic time.

Mrs Moore December 2019

“Outstanding house.”

Facilities are finished to a high end. The owners resolved the small issues we had speedily and were so welcoming and friendly. As 3 families of 6 adults and 3 kids we had so much space. Couldn’t recommend enough. More of a drive to the nearest pub but we do have small kids. Lots of things to do nearby too.

“Everything was perfect the Christmas trees were lovely & the Hamper left for us was a real treat.”

The house was really warm & wood burners made it cosy.Best house we have stayed in so far.

Mrs Charters September 2019

“This home is just stunning.”

Absolutely loved everything about it. Beautiful large living rooms, conservatory, Tv's in most rooms, stunning extremely well equipped kitchen, modern bathrooms. Comfy beds, gorgeous views, gorgeous gardens all set in a stunning quiet rural setting just minutes from shops and Dartmouth. It was worth every penny. Note; the driveway is long, steep and basically a dirt track. Our 4x4 was okay but the second car struggled in the pot holes, but drive slowly and you'll be fine.

Dr Harlow September 2019

“We had an absolutely lovely week at Lower Norton farmhouse.”

It is a stunning place, so quiet and peaceful in the middle of the countryside with gorgeous views across the valley but within easy reach of Dartmouth. We found everything we needed to do a lot of cooking and the cake that greeted us was such a nice touch. It was our first holiday as a family with our four month old and it was just perfect.

“Lower Norton Farmhouse is fantastic; the house itself is huge, beautifully renovated, and very comfortable, and the setting is beautiful.”

It’s just outside Dartmouth which is very picturesque and there are loads of great places to visit. Sue was a fantastic host with great communication. We had an amazing week.

About the location

DARTMOUTH

Totnes 12 miles.

Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.
