Onedin House

Absolutely fantastic accommodation, with superlative views across the Harbour - especially from the 4th floor Snug and balcony, equipped with a handy beer fridge!

Decorated with numerous artworks from local artists, Onedin house is a fantastic place to stay.

We loved Onedin House.

We've been to Dartmouth every year for over 20 years and wish we'd found it earlier. The location is perfect, the views are wonderful and the property is full of character. Unfortunately we managed to choose the worst week of the summer for weather. Ah well, there's always another time. Thanks also to Malcolm for being a helpful owner. Quite a rarity these days!

Lovely house.

All the facilities we wanted. Location-- 200 yards to shops and restaurants, and just high enough up the hill to get fantastic views, but not to tire us old folk too much. We think Dartmouth is great for all the things it offers. Great views, lots of good restaurants and shops, easy access to other places, especially using the ferries and steam train.

We have stayed in Dartmouth many times but this lovely house is our favourite and we loved our stay.

Close to the centre, it is well equipped, comfortable and welcoming, with a lovely sun trap garden and beautiful views. The short walk uphill is definitely worth it. We didn’t want to leave!

A beautiful house with stunning views overlooking Dartmouth.

Spotlessly clean and very well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend. Thanks Malcolm for being such a wonderful host

Onedin house really is wonderful.

This was our second time there and, if anything, we loved it even more than the first time. Its got the best blend of character and comfort.The owner has put some beautiful original art work in there which really adds to the charm..We loved the latest addition of a felted hare. The garden has wonderful views down to the river mouth and it's a perfect place to sit and enjoy sunrise.The upstairs snug is a really lovely place to "chill" and has amazing views from the balcony. Perfect for the 4 of us.

A beautiful property with the most amazing views ( you do have to climb a very steep hill to get there , but it’s more than worth it!

). We have stayed in Dartmouth many times and onedin house was a very special stay , to have a garden , a terrace and a balcony to just take in the beautiful views made this all the more spectacular. Thank you to the owners for all the careful thought that you have put into the house to make it a home.

Lovely property with amazing views.

Especially the "Snug" at the top. Perfect located close to all the local facilities.Would definitely come back. Although not recommended for anyone with mobility issues as the steep climb to the front door is challenging!

One of the nicest rental properties in Dartmouth - glad we found it!

Lovely, homely, well maintained and equipped house, with amazing views.

We'd love to come back sometime.

A very comfortable and well equipped house centrally located and ideal for exploring the area.

Communication/instructions were excellent. The views are amazing especially from ‘the snug’.

This was a beautiful place to stay .

Great location with wonderful views of the river and Kingswear from bedrooms and the lovely garden. The house was really well equipped and a joy to be in , with lovelyvart work on the walls.The snug at the top of the house with a balcony was so welcoming to be in in the evening . The owner has done so much to make this house a perfect place to stay We loved it so much we booked a second stay in September whilst we were there

Great property with the most amazing views of the town and river from both the house and the garden.

The climb up the road to the property and the internal stairs kept us fit, it was wonderful. We had a fabulous 2 weeks and felt very comfortable and at home in our surroundings.

One of the best houses, nice top floor living area with a view, the upstairs living area have its sink fridge & kettle, you can stay all day in that place, comfortable bedrooms, big bathrooms Ground floor, living dining & kitchen open space, we didn’t use the ground floor living area, No parking, have to park in one of the car parks, 5 minutes walk.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Dartmouth at Onedin House.

This was our second visit, and certainly didn’t disappoint. We had everything needed for a great holiday. The views from the snug are fantastic, a real bonus. Would definitely return.

Absolutely loved our stay at Onedin House.

The house is very comfortable with everything you need. The history of it is fascinating and the art work and pictures around the house are brilliant. It was spotlessly clean and was nice to arrive to everything needed to make a drink on arrival. Both bathrooms have a bath and shower so would comfortably cater for a family. The ‘snug’ at the top of the house is amazing with stunning views. We enjoyed a morning cuppa and a glass of wine in the evening. Dartmouth is a fantastic place to visit with lots to see and do. We will 100% be returning to Onedin House.

A really lovely house!

immaculately clean (apart from the grill...tiny point!) I've never stayed anywhere that had everything you could possibly need, including binoculars to look at the amazing view. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you

Amazing house very well equipped great location did not want to come home best place we have stopped in

A wonderfully well appointed place (comfortable indoor temperatures, hot waterfall shower in the family bathroom, comfortable beds & plenty of kitchen facilities) with fabulous views of Dartmouth from the snug at the top of the house (which has its own tea facilities).

Malcom the owner was super friendly & helpful ahead of our stay. Great location to explore the town & you can go on lovely walks straight from the front door. Highly recommend.

Loved the house, certainly kept us oldies fit walking round town and up your road and up the stairs to the great top floor second lounge with stunning views

We really enjoyed our stay.

The house was home from home comfort. Cleanliness, equipment, garden, linen, etc all very high standard. The best bit of this property was "The Snug" which was on the top floor commanding a magnificent view and was such a lovely place to relax in real comfort. We can highly recommend this property. You've got to like stairs and a steep hill though!

Amazing property no faults, had a great week away and the weather was a bonus.

Pictures do not do it justice.

The property was exactly what we wanted: beautiful location, clean, extremely comfortable beds and all the facilities needed to enjoy a wonderful weeks holiday.

Thank you so much Malcolm, we’ll be back and definitely recommend you to friends and family.

An amazing house would use it again .

But no up to date gas safety certificate and the floor in the bathroom is not non slip I got our shower ended up flat on my back hit my foot and ankle bruised but not broken. Did report when handing in keys but no information was taken and not put in any accident book (did not see a book in house). But saying this We loved our holiday

Fabulous views over the whole of Dartmouth Harbour!

Beautiful and well tended (and safe for young children) garden and patio. Scrupulously clean house, stocked with high-end fixtures, fittings, crockery, etc. Quaint nautical touches around the house, with a range of interesting hardback books on the Dartmouth area, and its history. The photos don't do the Snug on the top floor justice.. it really is the cherry on the cake! Property owner Malcolm responds promptly and helpfully. A real gem of a property!

The house is in a great location; just a few minutes walk from the centre of the town.

The last few yards are steep, but we didn't have any problems (we are in our late 60s). The parking pass was a bonus as we didn't move the car all week, just using local buses and ferries to get around. The view from the 'snug' on the top floor of the house was our favourite view out of all the homes we have stayed in. You can see over the town, the river estuary and Kingswear on the other side of the River Dart. The view out of the bedroom on the second floor was also great to wake up to. This was a great holiday destination and house; we couldn't have wished for better.

Firstly let me say we loved Onedin House - the central location into town is fantastic, the views are awesome, the house is so well equipped (with the exception only of a rolling pin and pastry brush!

) and the garden with outside seating areas just lovely. The parking arrangements worked well and unloading/loading the car wasn't a particular issue for us although it is a narrow, steep road and larger vehicles may have problems. I don't think we were quite prepared for the number and steepness of the stairs in the house - but that's a small price to pay for the other positives. The only real criticism I have is the double bed mattress on the first floor. It was like trying to sleep on a marshmallow - some people may love it, but all the members of our party tried that bed out and the opinion was unanimous - it is too soft and for anyone with back issues, it is very uncomfortable. Fortunately we were able to spread around the house and use the other beds, but if 6 people were in the house together, I suspect that 2 of them would be rather unhappy with sleeping arrangements. That mattress aside, the rest were firm and supportive. Thank you, Malcolm, for sharing your beautiful house with us - I am fairly certain we will return soon!

Sorry we had to leave Love the top floor room

An amazing property, equipped to a very high level.

Views are stunning.

We had a lovely very comfortable stay.

The cottage was extremely well fitted with everything you could want , in fact we couldn’t think of anything that was missing .The only improvement that I would make is to make the lower bathroom into a shower room , as if you are not very nimble the bath/ shower is not easy to use, we all used the main bathroom on the upper floor.lovely cottage, wonderful views , shame about the steep hill ,if you are not so young !

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Onedin House.

The house is very comfortable, has wonderful views and is very conveniently located for the shops and restaurants. Parking in the Mayor’s Avenue car park wasn’t a problem. Highly recommend.

Our 3rd stay here; a beautiful house in a very convenient location.

Generally a great stay. Recommend you update the photos as they’re the same as 14 years ago, to do the property justice. Excellent value added with the snug! However, the mattress in the top suite needs replacing, it’s very uncomfortable as you sink like you’re in a bucket. Most people of average weight would find this uncomfortable. Also, there appears not to be enough water pressure as the taps & showers upstairs cut out completely at the most inappropriate times-two issues easily rectified. Other than that, it was great!

A wonderful stay in this warm, comfortable and well-equipped property.

The views from the double bedrooms and the snug are stunning. The location is fantastic with shops, restaurants and the beautiful river only a couple of minutes’ walk away.

Very comfortable cottage with fantastic views from many rooms.

Incredibly well equipped and well heated with efficient plumbing. Choice between relaxing in snug at top of the house or kitchen/dinner with adjacent mini garden on ground floor made for very flexible socialising for mixed age groups or joint parties. Yes, there is the hill and two flights of stairs, but definitely worth it.

The house was tremendous and exceeded our expectations, it is well fitted out with excellent equipment and with nice art etc.

Quality was high and particularly enjoyed the snug and felt it very thoughtful that there was a kettle and crockery there. The location was excellent being close to the town, but very quiet. It was noticeable that our fitness improved over the week as we climbed the hill to the house!!

A wonderful week, thank you

The views over the River Dart from the property are absolutely stunning, this made the holiday extra special for us.

A wonderful house with fabulous views.

We had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. Dartmouth is a lovely and interesting place with lots to do and see. Thank you Malcolm for letting us stay at your fantastic house.

The Location suited us.

The house was amazing and the decor was fantastic. A 3 o’clock check in is too late . We were only given one set of keys. The beds were not that comfortable.

Amazing location , views spectacular, house was everything we could've wanted, lounge upstairs was our favourite part of the house,will definitely recommend this house,

If you want possibly the best views over Dartmouth then I think you will struggle to find anywhere better than Onedin House.

However it comes at a price and that is Onedin House is located on a very steep hill. Maybe not a good choice if you have any issues with mobility. Loading and unloading the car is interesting as you have to park on the single track hill, while trying not to hold the traffic up to much. Our party consisted of two adults and our two sons aged 6 & 7 the set up worked perfectly for us, The property is well kitted out with all the basics that you need and the two bathrooms make life abit easier The kitchen and garden are all on the ground floor, the first floor is accessed by a steep stair case, here you will find two bedrooms, one as a double and the other as two singles there is also a bathroom on this floor. Accessed again by a steep stair case is the 2nd floor, here is where you find the spacious master bedroom with excellent views, you can lay in bed and watch the lower ferry go about it's business. There is also a very large bathroom on this floor. Now to our favourite room The snug at the top of the house (another staircase) but this room has French doors that open onto a small balcony, from here you can see most of Dartmouth and Kingswear. The snug has a couple of sofa's and TV. You really can spend hours there just watching the world go by. Finally a great house with superb views and great location close to town.

Wonderful house, very well furnished with modern facilities and spectacular views over the busy Dart river.

We hope to stay again.

Wonderful views - the on-line images barely did the actual views justice.

There was little advice about how we should carry out normal recycling e.g., what were we supposed to do with it? Surely a basic piece of advice nowadays.

We had a wonderful stay at Onedin House.

Everything about it exceeded our expectations. It was perfectly situated. The property was spacious enough for our family of 5 adults to either sit together or lose each other completely within the house! It was tastefully and comfortably furnished with a full range of kitchen equipment etc. The level of cleanliness was high throughout. The snug at top of the house with it's wonder harbour views was a bonus. The delightful well tended garden and the patio space was a lovely little sun trap for morning coffee. We appreciated the seaside touches around the property and enjoyed the references to the property's history. Our estate car struggled to get up the hill beyond the house on the day of our arrival so all passengers jumped out and took our bags out so that the driver could drive to the top and turn around.The Mayor's Avenue car park is a very short walk from the house (approx 5 mins) so on our last day we carried our bags and belongings to the car park in a few stints to avoid parking on the hill outside the house to load up. Lovely coastal walks beyond the castle. The town seemed to be coping well and respectfully within Covid guidelines. We had such a lovely tranquil week. It was perfect!

What a fantastic house, everything you could possibly need was available and more.

Fantastic, well equipped house.

Stunning views and very comfortable. We had a lovely stay.

Onedin House exceeded all our expectations; a most beautifully presented property that is so close to the shops and restaurants that climbing the hill isn’t too much of an effort!

All bedrooms are of a good size, the kitchen is well equipped, and the whole house was pristine. There is a small garden with lovely roses and lavender. The living room at the top of the house is a wonderful bonus. We enjoyed sitting there in the evenings, admiring the spectacular view. The owner has thoughtfully provided many books on local history, attractions and walks which helped us plan our days. Parking in Dartmouth is a challenge (and some of the roads are very narrow!!), but there is a permit provided for the main car park.

House is very nice, location good and very well equipped (particularly snug with lots of DVDs, music and lots of local information and walks).

However when we arrived the house was very, very dusty and the cleanliness was definitely not as I would expect. I called the office (Carl was helpful) and the cleaners did come round on the Saturday evening and did some dusting and hoovering of major areas eg chest of drawers, mantelpieces and the heated towel rails in the bathroom! And the bath. My other disappointment was that when I booked I had a conversation with one of your colleagues and specifically said I was looking for somewhere quiet and peaceful. She did point our that two of the properties I was interested in had building work in the close vicinity. However, Onedin House has a major renovation project in a house just across the street, and work was being done mostly starting at 8am. Another house opposite was having a decking put down in front of it and looked like it was also being renovated, and that went on all through the Bank Holiday weekend. So not as quiet and peaceful as I would have liked! Building and renovation work is transient, however it would be helpful if your office had up to date information.

Amazing views from almost every window.

Outdoor space was a bonus. Well equipped kitchen and great range of useful books and guides

With regard to Onedin House - we had such a lovely week with our daughter and family.

The property more than lived up to our expectations. It is very well equipped with the customer arguably not short of anything they need. It is very well heated throughout including underfloor heating in the kitchen. The phone call from the owner to check that we were happy with everything and to wish us “Happy New Year” was much appreciated. In all, highly recommended and all being well, we will return

Brilliant holiday home, lovely views especially from the small balcony on the top floor. Very well stocked everything you could need. The walk up the hill is steep and i was gratefull it wasnt further up, but it was not too bad, and worth it for the views. Disappointed there was no welcome pack though. Every other holiday rental I've stayed in provides one of some description. Milk for a cup of tea on arrival after a long journey is always appreciated, bread, butter etc. But apart from that it was one of the nicest places I've stayed in, I would say the photos don't really do it justice.

The property was very clean and well equipped. The view from the snug was stunning and we spent many evenings up there. Highly recommended.

Fantastic holiday home, would definitely recommend it. All the home comforts you need at the house. Lovely outside space, and the benefit of a fourth floor snug with views over the river Dart. Great location, only a very short walk to the shops and river.

Excellent customer service

I cannot fault this house, its location, its view and the standard of finish inside. Lovely rooms, especially the top floor along with its stunning view, great level of utilities, lots of stairs, 39 to be precise which is why they have a 39 steps poster at the top - nice touch. Its quite a steep hill to the property with a 33% gradient. Sink and fridge on the top floor is a great idea so that you don't continually go up and down to make a brew! I have one criticism but its not about this property which I cannot fault, its the parking, You have a permit to park in the local car park about 5 minutes away. I had 3 bad experiences with this car park all within 1 weeks stay. My car was scratched on 2 separate occasions and then one morning I arrived to find my rear number plate was ripped off. Thankfully it was left on the ground beside the car and wasn't broken so I was able to drive to the nearby Sainsburys and buy some double sided tape to re-attach it. But I have to say I would walk from the house down to my car wondering what else would be done to it. The parking is tight and perhaps the 2 scratches (one was considerable were from other cars parking / leaving), I don't know but the number plate ripped off was clearly vandalism. Ive attached a picture of one of the scratches to my car

Everything we wanted and more.

This was our 4th stay in Onedin House. Unfortunately the first floor bathroom is looking a little tired now and could have been cleaner (particularly the towel rail which was very dusty and had a couple of hairs stuck to it!.) However the house retains it's charm and is well situated for the town centre. Over the years we have found that the view from the garden is becoming less due to the neighbour's growing plant life! but it's still a pleasure to sit out in this well stocked little garden.

Onedin house is very well appointed and convenient for Dartmouth centre. It is clean and cosy with a well equipped kitchen. The views are stunning. We would definitely return.

Great location, great views, homely property with some pleasing quirks. Nicely appointed, comfortable and to be commended.

Excellent

Fabulous house, everything perfect about it.

Lovely house , very clean & well equipped . Christmas trees a nice touch ! Good views of Dartmouth ! We have stay at Onedine on many occasions & I'm sure we will return soon !

Place excellent, great views! Not sure it could be matched

Fantastic house.

Fabulous property, we would not want to stay anywhere else now! It would have been helpful if we had been told where the 'property information' book was kept- we found it on day 4 of our holiday (as it turns out this didn't cause a problem).

Onedin House is one of the best rentals we've ever had with a high standard throughout. We have stayed twice in two years and would definitely go back. Everything is well maintained, the views are amazing and yet you are just a two-minute walk from the Dartmouth town centre. Excellent shops, pubs and restaurants, all within walking distance. Can't say enough good things about this rental!

"Our tenth stay at Onedin House.

We never tire of Dartmouth or this house!"
