“Enjoyable holiday and retreat.”

Would do again.

“Vacuum cleaner needed emptying as it smelt badly.”

No hairdryer or clock in the cottage. Nor a visitors book to add own personal comments for the owners. Otherwise fine and recommended.

Ali very easy.

“The Granary is a delightful cottage, immaculately presented and equipped with everything you might need, only a couple of minutes walk to the shops, bars and restaurants.”

Lovely views across the rooftops from the lounge and kitchen windows. Easily the nicest cottage we have stayed in and we wouldn’t hesitate to re-book for next year. Keith & Jan

“There are two main problems with the Granary.”

Firstly the ceilings are very low and in the shower room the ceiling is so low that any one who is 6ft tall has to stoop. In the shower itself I could not stand upright. I am only 6ft 1 inch tall and these days many people are as tall as me or taller and this property is not at all suitable for anyone who is tall. Secondly the parking. There is a garage but it is on a road that is so narrow that it is virtually impossible to turn the car to get it into it. The car has to get up onto the opposing small pavement to do this. Any car larger than a polo would probably not be able to manoeuvre into it and the chance of scraping the side of your car is extremely high. They had a parking permit for two car parks, one near the cottage which was OK if you could get a space but the other was out of the town completely and you needed to get a bus from it to get back into town (a park and ride set up). When one goes on holiday the last thing you want is stress caused by not being able to park your car and not being able to stand up properly in the property you have rented out. The owner of the property also needed the parking permit back on the Friday which would have meant a lot of messing around trying to find a parking space so we decided to leave a day early on that Friday. Because of this I would not recommend this flat to anybody.

“Beautiful single bedroomed cottage well decked out with all you need to cook indoors if you wish to do so.”

Well located to all amenities at Dartmouth a mere 5 mins walk to the main estuary pontoon. Garage available for medium to small sized cars 50 mts away. Farm style interior in the best possible sense. Thoroughly enjoyed seven days stay and would recommend to nearly all interested. Just one note! And it does tell you on booking !! The access to the upper floor cottage is via two deep steps via two small inward opening doors which could make access difficult for some. The addition of one extra grab rail/handle just inside the doors would be of extra benefit !!! Having said that it is well worthwhile as the cottage is marvellous inside.

Lovely cottage really close to town, steps are only suited to able people but this is stated on all adverts, great time really warm

“The Granary was very clean and comfy and well looked after.”

There was everything you needed in the property. The only draw back would be that there are three tiered steps at the front which is fine but then there are two steep steps inside the door that are steep and there are no handrails or anything to hold onto to assist. If you have any health problems such as heart or lung illness, which my husband has, I would not recommend staying at the property purely for the step issue inside.

Mrs Hunt September 2018

“The property we stayed in was in the town, perfect.”

Old granary loads of character, beam ceilings. Lovely would stay again .

- Mrs Hunt, September 2018
Mr Lewis July 2018

“An apartment anyone taller than 6ft would find it very uncomfortable because of the very low ceilings.”

Bed mattress is very worn and uncomfortable needs changing. Because you are sandwiched between two other properties it is very noisy. The constant screaming of the seagulls till very early in the morning made sleeping very difficult.

- Mr Lewis, July 2018
Mr Hopkins June 2018

“Superb little property, right in amongst Dartmouth.”

The Granary has quirks galore. Its access via steps and double doors soon became a pleasure not a chore. Its home comforts of a settee and a chair made looking over Dartmouth a daily to do. The cottage would benefit from a few renewals. A new kettle and toaster, are top of the list. The bed whilst comfy is only a double, there is space for a larger one. On the whole this is a perfect base for Dartmouth and the surrounding area. And the Garage is the added bonus. Just be prepared for a 10 point turn to reverse in!

Mrs Hyde June 2018

“People need to know that after the two steps up there are 3 very steep stairs and NO handholds to get into the property.”

I could not manage them at all without the help of My hubby - thankfully he is younger than me and fit - it was a great location and clean etc. but this property is not suitable for anyone with any mobility issues at all.

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.
