Dittisham Cottages
Messing about on the river doesn't get better than when
you're staying in a Dittisham holiday cottage on the beautiful
Dart Estuary.
Known locally as 'Ditsum', this exclusive little village
is an absolute delight with Shinners Meadow at its centre and The
Ham at the water's edge - a favourite spot for dog walkers.
There's also a great little pub that not only looks after your
thirst and appetite, but also your holiday essentials by way of a
shop-cum-Post Office. Please find below our self catering holiday
cottages near Dittisham, Devon.
Riverside attractions near your Dittisham cottage
Your Dittisham cottage is near the widest part of the Dart,
making it a super area for sailing and kayaking. Two miles
downstream brings you to Dartmouth (30 minutes by ferry), brimming
with stylish boutiques, trendy galleries and wonderful places to
eat and drink. Otherwise hop aboard a steam train, or explore the
estuary's nooks and crannies on foot or bike. Fishing is
fantastic too, with the chance to land a bass or go cockling at
Flat Owers.
Across the river from Dittisham is Greenway (National Trust),
the magnificent home of the late Agatha Christie - step inside to
catch a fascinating glimpse of her private life and explore the
beautiful gardens. Or pack a picnic hamper and head for Broadsands,
a lovely sandy beach a short drive away.
What else? An annual sailing regatta and amazing local produce -
Dittisham's famous plums, local wines, handmade cheeses and
more - great for stocking those Dittisham holiday home
cupboards!
So if relaxing by a river in a seriously sublime setting is top
of your holiday wish list, book a cottage in Dittisham with Sykes
