13 Above Town

Probably the nicest, most comfortable and luxurious cottage we have stayed in.

Everything you could possibly need for a quality relaxing time away. Very cozy even with the mid November weather. Lovely comfortable beds and such a well stocked kitchen. It is obvious the owners of this property have put a great deal of love, care and thought into the design of the whole house and the little touches make it feel like a home away from home. It seems no expense has been spared to create an oasis – and who could leave without mentioning the views – wow!! Stunning!! Worth every penny of money we spent on our short breakaway – brilliant place to stay.

A comfortable warm house with everything you could need for an enjoyable stay.

Very relaxing, taking in the beautiful views from the sitting room. The downstairs sitting room was never used due to the rainy October weather but it’s a great extra space in warmer months. Shame about not being able to have a chair/ table on the top balcony but understandable if based on previous stormy experiences.

From the moment you open the front door you go wow.

The views are amazing. The house is well equipped with high standards. The kitchen had everything we needed. So nice to have a washing machine and tumble dryer. The lounges are comfortable. The bedroom was lovely. Comfy bed and lovely bedding. Nice lot of wardrobe space ( including hangers). Nice bathroom and shower room. Plenty of hot water. There are 94 steps to climb up to the house from town. We enjoyed the challenge but many wouldn’t but this is explained in the property description. We and our two dogs had a fabulous week.

Having stayed in several properties in and around Dartmouth over 15+ years, 13 Above Town tops the list for space, comfort, location, and those views!

We're reluctant to say how lovely the place was in case there isn't availability for us to return next year!

There were no oven gloves or tea towels.

Aside from that everything was absolutely perfect!

Superb house well kitted out definitely recommend

Description of property did not make it clear what floor the bathroom was on.

It would have been helpful to have a floor plan to view. The cutlery drawer took a while to find. It would have been helpful if the sign for the drawer was more visible, possibly facing up from the main drawer rather than on the front of the cutlery drawer.

I've finally found a rented property with comfortable sofas.

I LOVE your house. I love everything about it. Well possible not the being at the top of a steep hill. But even that wouldn't put me off buying it as it is. The view is outstanding from both of the balconies. The beds are comfortable, with plenty of pillow options. The facilities in the house are lovely, with a lovely sized TV and sound system. The main town centre is a short, steep downhill walk. This is not a disable-friendly walk. Everywhere is steep. That does not detract from the beauty of the house or surrounding area.

We had a brilliant stay at 13 Above Town.

The views from the balconies are hard to explain and photos don’t quite do it justice, but we’d come back just for the views! The layout of the house was great, the location was fab, and the house had (pretty much) everything you needed. We were a family of four adults and two dogs and had plenty of space. We also find the guide/book left by the owners with lots of tips and opinions very helpful. There were only two things I think could be improved - the garden was a little overgrown and felt a little neglected, which was a shame as it could have been beautiful. There were a few things missing that we typically expect to be included for the price, including bin bags and dishwasher tablets. However, these small things wouldn’t stop me recommending the house to friends and family, or from coming back ourselves!

Lovely home & fabulous location.

For me & ideally there would be fewer ornaments & clearer surfaces so that I could more easily fill the place up with my own clutter

A very well equipped but homely holiday house.

The views are lovely, the bedrooms are beautifully furnished and the kitchen is incredibly well stocked.

Really nice 4 story property!

Very close to town center and pub at bottom of stairs. Would 100% stay again. Property needs a bit of TLC though and the downstairs lounge is cold in winter. All the heat goes upstairs could do with a curtain. Few things to fix. Curtain master bedroom and clean window. Master sink not draining. mold in bath master bathroom. frying pans all bent in middle, missing some kitchen utensils, top balcony floor needs cleaning and gullies emptied so not dripping below, door is difficult to open. Gutter down pipe leaking seems to of been wrapped together with elec tape. garden decking rotten on curved edge so wobbles. did have maintenance out as bedroom tv wasn't secure. I guess as end of season these will be seen to over winter.

Comfortable, clean and spacious.

The views as expected were fantastic with the whole of Dartmouth harbour spread below you. A very nice week thank you. Our negatives were that there was really no explanation of rubbish disposal. The two guides said the other would detail! And there were no bin bags for towels and sheets, we provided our own. I did mention to a member of staff who phoned me that the bathroom washand basin could do with unblocking as it drains only slowly. Also no protective mattress covers on our bed or one pillow. However none of these detracted from our enjoyable holiday.

Lovely place to stay.

We would return! We had a heatwave week, so all in all a fantastic week.

This is a really lovely holiday home with beautiful views over the Dart and looking across to Kingswear.

The house was well equipped with comfortable beds and great facilities. It’s spread over 4 floors which, together with three levels of terraces/balconies, actually allows everyone to have a bit of space if they want it. We liked just how close the house is to the town centre but without any loud noises (except for the seagulls!!!)

Beautiful property, location and views.

High standard, fully equipped kitchen and bathroom and very comfortable beds. The outside area was overgrown on arrival but got rectified the same day, so was a minor plumbing problem. The middle terrace from the kitchen requires TLC and a deep clean and the removal of dead plants. We sat on the top terrace, which was much nicer with amazing views over Dartmouth and enjoyed looking at the sailboats and listening to the seagulls. The street leading up to the property is very narrow and steep and our car could only be brought up to unload bags, as double yellow lines. We didn’t use the garage, as too small for a bigger car but the owner provided a parking permit for the central car park. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay as a family of 4 with two dogs and would recommend the property for its quirkiness. Our girls particularly enjoyed the lower lounge for privacy with its own big smart tv and two comfortable leather sofas.

Wonderful property with spectacular views.

Great location in the heart of Dartmouth.

Well equipped and comfortable cottage with fabulous views.

Stayed with 3 grandchildren and dog. All thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Note for owner :- Low heat setting on Tumble Dryer not working. Light pull switch in upper bathroom sometimes has to be operated several times before it worked

The tv in the downstairs lounge did not have any signal and also the cold tap in the kitchen drips.

We had an amazing stay in your gorgeous house and I think it’s the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. The views are just amazing from every floor and the house is fully equipped and has everything you need. We had a lovely week and hopefully will be back one day. Thank you.

What an amazing stay!

As you walk into the house you are greeted by the view over the estuary and what a view! The house is like a home from home with stunning views from 3 of the 4 floors. This property has everything you need from super comfy beds, modern bathrooms and kitchen and 2 options of lounges- perfect if you have kids and they want to watch something different on TV. We also loved the pack describing the area and all rooms of the house had clear instructions on operating TV’s, cookers etc. We thank the owners as this really made our stay in lovely Dartmouth even more of a pleasure, WE WILL BE BACK!

A fantastic property with stunning views.

Thank you for an enjoyable stay. Xx
