“Wonderful Views”

Stayed here twice now and love it ...

Stayed here twice now and love it. It's small but perfect for a couple. The views from the window seat are fabulous. You can while away hours with a glass of wine watching life pass you by on the river. The apartment is clean and well stocked with everything you need. Only 2 small issues. Once you've reached the third floor in the lift, there's a flight of stairs once you enter the apartment. It's also right next to the naval yard. There can be a small amount of noise early on. Wasn't a major issue for us.
Mrs Jones September 2019

“This is a lovely apartment in a delightful position in Dartmouth.”

The views from the window seat are amazing and so relaxing. Also as it is in the roof space (normal height ceilings) it could almost be detached. What would really make it more 5 star would be: - a smart TV including Netflix - liquid hand soap for bathroom and kitchen (always had this in other apartments) - a small welcome pack, milk? - perhaps a replacement sofa (not a lot of spring left in it) Also we were not convinced the bed was a king size - perhaps it was just a small king? Having said all that, nothing could detract from an absolutely brilliant stay there.
Mrs Walpole March 2019

“We had a fantastic week with blue skies all week.”

Great views over the river Dart, we caught a couple of glimpses of seals in the river at high tide and lots of cormorants. The apartment is of a very high standard and a lovely space to enjoy watching the river go by. The Dart Marina complex was very quiet and peaceful. Good food and drinks at The Floating Bridge and Bayard's Cove restaurant.
Mr Davies March 2019

“Great cottage, only 2 things I would comment on: 1.”

We received no information on how to pick up the keys and gain access. We booked through booking.com and apparently this was the problem. However this was very frustrating after a 4 hour drive. 2. The extractor fan in the bathroom would not turn off day and night and it was very annoying at night. Otherwise a perfect holiday location!
Mrs Statham January 2019

“Excellent location, high end furnishings & great view.”
Mrs Mullarkey December 2018

“Lovely flat, very comfortable and especially good for winter, lovely and warm and cosy, especially as we hit a very wet and windy week.”

Great views so spent considerable time watching boats and the beautiful lit up Christmas train. All the organisation was good too. One or two things on description of what to do were slightly confusing like "consult the owner or caretaker" when there wasn't one but only minor things. I think we would definitely consider staying here again.
“Dishwasher did not work.”

“Great location and views over marina.”

Had the great pleasure to use the gym/pool. Allocated parking at the property which is very rare in Dartmouth. Only comfort we would like to see next, is a ladle (large soup spoon). We both very much enjoyed our visit.

Many thanks for your positive review regarding your stay at 36 Dart Marina in Dartmouth. We were grateful for your valuable feedback and are pleased to advise that a ladle is being taken to the property in time for the next changeover! We look forward to seeing you both again very soon.

“Property excellent however little niggles need sorting.”

Dishwasher not working, radiator in bedroom had broken thermostat so had to get it sorted since we couldn't turn the heating off. No instructions for heating.

Thank you for your valuable feedback in respect of 36 Dart Marina in Dartmouth. We were sorry to hear that you experience some niggles at the property. We have passed on your comments to our Property Services Team for their immediate attention. We do hope you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back to the South Hams very soon.

“We have stayed in 3 properties at the The dart Marina and have always thought EXCELLENT.”

But this time. The dishwasher played up. The cooker hood didnt work and the TV had background hissing (I thought this was a thing of the past with TV's.) Its such a lovely apartment and if these small things are not sorted out there will be more added to the list and it will loose its appeal. Maybe a proper ironing board would be a good idea as have u tried to use the one in there? Overall we had a fab time but a quiet word with the owner is probably needed. Julie Davies Worcester.
“A lovely apartment overlooking the Dart Marina with excellent facilities, would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing break.”
“Good”
“This was our second stay in the apartment and we were surprised to see the cracked door of the bathroom cabinet, which was there during our stay in June 2014, had not been replaced.”

The radio had also been changed and we were unable to use our iPod as we had on the previous year which was disappointing. I've always felt the bed is an example of design over practicality. I noticed in the guest book one visitor had complained about it, saying the lack of a bed head means the pillows very often ended up on the floor. And yes, this happened to us too as it did in 2014. Other than that everything for an enjoyable stay was there and we would not hesitate to recommend 36 Dart Marina to our friends.
“A walk in shower cubicle would have been better for us than a shower over the bath - also no safety grab handles to step into bath.”

Would have loved to have had sky tv/sports included, shame it wasn,t. otherwise, a lovely apartment with great location and great to have admission to dart marina gym. Lovely clean apartment
“Really comfortable stay.”

Lovely outlook to RIver Dart. Only problem was smell of cooking from apartment below. It was though it was coming up through the floorboards. Have stayed in No.36 before and never noticed the problem.
“Fantastic Views and Lovely Apartment.”
“Beautiful river views, comfortable bed, very relaxing bath but unfortunately no helpful literature to explain how to use the controls on the bath/shower, which are not at all easy, unusual and very stiff.”

Many thanks for your positive review in respect of your recent stay at 36 Dart Marina in Dartmouth. We are grateful for your feedback regarding the shower controls and have passed your comments on to our Dartmouth Team for their attention. Looking forward to seeing you again very soon.

“All brilliant except for the bed.”

We found it much too soft and kept rolling into the middle so generally didn't get a lot of sleep. Also the bed frame was a bit odd with the steel uprights. Otherwise we would book again but as we are in our 60s a good night's sleep is pretty important. However, we had a really good holiday. Thought the view was fantastic.

The owners have asked us to thank you for your constructive comments and they were sorry to hear that you did not find the mattress to your liking. We have been advised that the mattress is a very high quality "So To Bed" mattress and we have not received any previous comments regarding the mattress quality, so there are no plans to change at this stage.

“This is the third time we have been to this flat, the first was in 2011.”

While the flat is still nice some bits are getting tired. The sofa bed is broken. The other settee is getting grubby and the cushions have gone flat. The bed still causes problems with pillows disappearing off the back during the night.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review in respect of your third stay at 36 Dart Marina. Your feedback in respect of our team's service is much appreciated and we were pleased to be able to organise a late collection of keys. We were sorry to read your comments in respect of the furniture and will investigate the various points raised. Just to clarify, the sofa is not actually advertised as a sofa bed in our description and is not intended to be used as a bed. Please accept our apologies for any confusion caused. We have also noted your comments in respect of the master bed design. Despite the issues raised, we do hope you enjoyed your holiday and we look forward to welcoming you back to Dart Marina very soon. Owner relations

“We had a wonderful time at this lovely apartment.”

The views are amazing. There was always something to watch on the river as we loved the whistle of the steam train as it passed by. The use of the Dart Marina Hotel facilities were an added bonus and the location into town is excellent.

36 Dart Marina is a fantastic apartment, right on the waterfront overlooking the River Dart. We hope you enjoyed your stay and explored plenty of what the gorgeous area South Devon has to offer, especially in this recent sunshine! Once again, thank you for your feedback, we hope to welcome you back soon! Owner relations
“The flat was very nice, clean and comfortable.”

It had wonderful views across the river Dart and the marina. The location was very good being within walking distance of the the town centre, restaurants, cafes, pubs and the shops...

It’s fantastic to hear that you enjoyed your stay at 36 Dart Marina; with such beautiful panoramic views of the river we can see why you loved it so much! Once again thank you for your feedback, we hope to see you again soon! Owner relations

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.
