“Topsail was a beautiful cottage just two negatives that would stop us booking again .”

The 4 0 clock check in time was too late for us after a long journey. Parking was difficult on the road because there is that much gravel at the sides the wheels of your car just cannot get a grip on the very steep road. Seemed to be a problem for other cars all week .

“Really nice stay at this lovely cottage.”

Well appointed and in a good kept condition. Yes it’s at the top of a very steep hill, but the views, well they are worth the walk up. The small rear patio area provides exceptional views over Dartmouth and the river Dart. The road is fairly quiet, but parking is hard to secure. Be prepared for a bit of a walk and the road side parking is on a very steep hill. If your after a cosy cottage holiday then this will serve you well. Plenty of extra stuff inside re tv, video player, books, games and ample wardrobe space. Minor comments (related to housekeeping) - complimentary biscuits and milk were out of date - a few more toilet rolls would be useful. Two for a 4 person stay for a week is not enough - now it’s warming up the rear outside space needs a clean - the beds should have mattress protectors fitted Would we stay again - yes. The above are the only issues we encountered and easily sorted. We paid £550 for a week in late April and thought it was value for money. If your headed to Dartmouth, check the offers on each night in the pubs and restaurants, there are some 2 for 1 deals. Fantastic full English breakfasts at Bayards Cove Inn. M&S food hall and a Coop store in town for your milk and wine!

“We absolutely loved staying here, great little house with gorgeous decor and a fantastic view of Dartmouth.”

A stones throw from the lovely shops and restaurants this was a perfect location.

“Beautiful house, tastefully decorated, very comfortable.”

Could do with a bit more storage for food as we are in the house most nights with 2 young children but otherwise lovely. We'd definitely rebook this house.

“Lovely cottage with every home comfort and furnished to a high standard, fantastic views overs the rooftops to the river and we were able to sit on the balcony even in October.”

Only niggle was parking, difficult to find a space even if we got back early afternoon. Other than that really enjoyed our week.

“Superb location.”

Excellently appointed. All you could want for a short break. Highly Recommended. Only drawback - the steep hill, but well worth the climb.

“The cottage was beautiful and in a great location.”

The standard of facilities was really high and the size was perfect for our family (2 adults and 1 child). If I was being very picky, a washing machine would have been helpful. We had an amazing holiday. It was very straightforward to book through Sykes and when I did need to contact Sykes, they responded very quickly. The owner was also incredibly helpful and answered any questions we had before arrival.

This fabulous character cottage is set in an elevated position, a short walk from the town of Dartmouth with far reaching views across the stunning River Dart estuary.

The cottage is furnished to a high standard, providing a stylish holiday home in a quiet location ideal for two to four people keen to soak up the laid-back atmosphere of the town.

The cottage is set over three floors with an open plan living area on the ground floor.

There is a well-equipped galley kitchen and a good-sized dining table; perfect for some great home-cooked meals to prepare and enjoy whilst enjoying the local views.

The sitting area has a comfy sofa and chair in front of the feature fireplace with a woodburner, making it a good place to relax in front of after a full day out and about.

There are two spacious bedrooms, one on each floor, which are both beautifully presented and finished to a very high standard with a family bathroom on the first floor.

Leading from the living area are patio doors on to an enclosed upper decked balcony with full glass balustrades and furniture, making it perfect for some alfresco dining or enjoying the lovely views to the river and the surrounding area.

From the balcony there are stairs leading to a paved lower deck; a pretty, private terrace with bench, tables and easy chairs ideal forcatching the afternoon and evening sun.

The town and riverside are just an 5 minute walk where you can find excellent restaurants, interesting boutique shops and of course all the activities along the waterfront, including sailing and river cruises up the Dart to Greenway (Agatha Christie's former holiday home).

The Dartmouth area offers a wide range of days out including wine and cheese tasting at the award-winning Sharpham vineyard, exotic gardens open to the public and wonderful walks along the South West Coast path.

Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon, there are many local events throughout the year within walking distance from Topsail, such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta.

Also within reach is the stunning beach at Blackpool Sands, which is one of South Devon's most beautiful natural treasures, with it being set in a sheltered bay, surrounded by evergreens and pines.

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. 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 Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular sandy beaches are a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.
