“Harbourside was everything we needed for a restful break after Christmas.”

We visit Dartmouth every year at Christmas and New year and this cottage has exceeded everything we have stayed in before. The views are outstanding, every night sitting in the lounge overlooking the beautiful river dart. Every morning we wrapped up warm and enjoyed a coffee on the balcony. This cottage is perfect in every way. Tastefully decorated and containing all mod-cons. It’s a short walk to town, beware lots of steps, fantastic for walking off the Christmas excess, but not so suitable ...

“On arrival we were greeted with hassle from a resident opposite while trying to unload our car near the property.”

The rubbish bin contained waste from previous visitors, leaving us little room for our own. The twin bedroom was not of the same standard or comfort as the double room. The radiator in the en-suite, off the twin-bedroom, didn't work enough to warm the bathroom, only the bottom of it got warm. Unlike the other bathroom there was no heated towel rail, so we had no way to dry wet towels, which was unpleasant and not expected in a quality holiday property. Cleanliness was also not to the standard expected. In the twin bedroom there was a thick deposit of dirt clearly visible behind a tallboy. The venetian blind in the en-suite had a similar heavy deposit of dirt. The WC pan needed flushing to remove excreta from a previous user. The linen and towels were clean, however a mattress protector on one single bed had an unpleasant stain and should have been laundered. The pillow protectors were also stained and should have been changed. Broadband connection was inconsistent and frequently dropped; the upload speed was insufficient to use FaceTime or Skype. Using the Smart TV to stream from Netflix was made difficult by extended losses of network connection. For one whole day the Freesat satellite signal was lost as well, and as there was no terrestrial Freeview aerial connected, we were without any TV to watch. We would have preferred to be made aware of potential broadband issues at this apartment prior to booking.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We have arranged for the radiator in the en-suite to be looked at so that it works more effectively. Unfortunately, if the weather is unusually bad around Dartmouth the TV and WiFi signal can be affected. We have spoken with the cleaners of this property and raised the points with them so that these areas will not be missed going forward. If you had brought any of the above points to us during your stay we would have done our upmost to rectify them as soon as possible for you. We hope that these points did not detract too much from your stay in Dartmouth, and we hope we can welcome you back to the area again soon. Owner relations

“Beautiful apartment overlooking the River Dart.”

Very well equipped with everything we would needed. Only thing against returning were the steps and the lack of parking. My wife has mobility problems and found the steps quite a challenge. The walk into town was easy and Dartmouth really is a lovely holiday destination.
Mrs Thomas September 2019

“This is a lovely apartment with beautiful river views.”

This is the second time we have stayed there, last time we slept in the double bedroom with the river view & was very comfortable, this time we had the twin bedded room as we went with friends, we found this room quite stuffy & couldn't open the window as its painted shut & also couldn't turn the radiator off as the valve wont move. The flat is very well equipped, both bathrooms are excellent with lovely showers.

Thank you for your feedback and we are happy to hear that this is your second visit to Dartmouth and to Harbourside. Thank you for bringing these points to our attention we will arrange for these to be assessed and remedied. We hope to see you again soon! Owner relations

“Really lovely place to stay, superb views, really clean and excellent facilities.”

Booking and key pick up super easy. Dartmouth is a beautiful town to visit too! Only real grumble was the parking - would have been nice to know in advance how far the car parking was and that also from the Tuesday car parking would be a bus ride away (this was a little inconvenient). We also got a parking ticket whilst parked in the Mayor's car park which I feel could have been avoided if it was simply made clear we were to park in the 'Pay and Display Area' rather than using words such as reserved space, smaller carpark etc.
Mrs Pegden July 2019

“This is a well appointed apartment with stunning views from the balcony and the bay window.”

We loved just watching life on the river which included ferries, fishing boats, birds and seals. We had everything we needed and lots of space. Looking forward to returning we were sad to leave.
Mrs Olney June 2019

“We have booked Harbourside for the same week for the last 4 years & expected to do so again.”

However, without informing us that we no longer had priority booking at the end of our holiday, we discovered that it was already fully booked & that we would no longer get the loyalty discount. We now realise that you have been taken over by Sykes & that they have their own loyalty scheme but I do think this should apply to previous Coast & Country customers. We are very disappointed not to be returning to Harbourside next year.
Miss Boothroyd June 2019

“We loved Harbourside!”
Mrs Thomas May 2019

“Lovely apartment with fantastic views.”

Very clean and comfortable. Kitchen was fully equipped. Hope to book again in th near future.
Mr Haine March 2019

“Bit disappointed there was no welcome tea/cake/wine this time, but minor point.”
“We have been staying in Dartmouth at least once a year for many years and we can honestly say this property is quite the best in every way, many thanks.”

The service from this company is the best also.

We were really delighted to receive your kind review regarding your recent stay at Harbourside in Dartmouth. Your comments are greatly appreciated - thank you! We very much look forward to welcoming you back to the Dartmouth area again soon. The Team at Coast & Country Cottages. Owner relations

“Harbourside is a beautiful property.”

We have stayed there 3 times now and each time there have been improvements made to it. This time the second bathroom had had a luxurious modern refit. The location is stunning, you can sit in the large bay window in the lounge and watch the River Dart, its tides and traffic: ferries, the Naval cadets' training craft, all kinds of yachts and fishing vessels and the occasional rigged sailing ship or gin palace. A fabulous place for a holiday.

Many thanks for your positive review regarding your recent stay at Harbourside in Dartmouth. We were delighted to read your kind comments about our high standard of accommodation and service and do hope you choose to stay with us again. Clare Levy Marketing & Sales Manage Owner relations
“Wonderful views”
“We first stayed at Harbourside in Castle House, South Town, in 2006 and last month was, I think, our 5th stay.”

Harbourside is a lovely apartment with the most amazing views of the River Dart looking over to Kingswear. We really do think that this must be the best view ever! The apartment is very comfortable, good bed in Bedroom 1 (although only a double, could do with a 5' bed there), with patio doors with balcony. The sitting room is spacious, as is the kitchen, which is well stocked. The second bedroom is quite small but has its own shower room. We had a wonderful week and hope to be back some time soon.

Many thanks for taking the time to leave your review regarding Harbourside in Dartmouth. We were delighted to read how much you enjoyed the amazing views and your feedback is noted regarding the bedrooms - thank you. We do hope to see you again very soon. Owner relations
“Good”
“This is such a lovely apartment very comfortable very light wonderful views”
“Excellent well equipped property with stunning views.”

The only downside is having to vacate by 10.00am, an 11.00am departure would be far less of a hassle.
“Best place we have ever stayed”

“Perfect place to stay.”

Excellent facilities. Very comfortable but would suggest a king size bed rather than a double which we found a bit small.
Mr Shaw

“In an excellent location nice property”

We agree that Harbourside is in a great location for exploring Dartmouth and beyond and are glad you found the property to be to your taste. It is wonderful that you had chosen to return to Dartmouth and we hope to see you in the South Hams again soon.

“Harbourside Dartmouth is a superb apartment and we always have wonderful holidays there”

Many thanks for your kind review of Harbourside, located in such a fabulous waterside setting just a five minute walk to the town centre, with its restaurants, boutiques and art galleries we can quite see why you choose to return again and again! We look forward to welcoming you back to Dartmouth again very soon. Owner relations
Mrs JANE Clapinson

“We spent a terrific week at Harbourside in October 2017.”

Joined by family who hadn't visited this amazing apartment before, they were simply blown away by the superb accommodation and the fantastic views from the main bedroom and sitting room. The shower room and the bathroom have been updated since our last visit and although there isn't a bath in place any more, this made no difference to our 2 year old grand-daughter who loved having a shower with her mummy! This was, I think, our 6th visit to Harbourside, which really says it all. And the weather was really kind which was the icing on the cake!

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback in respect of your 6th visit to Harbourside in Dartmouth. It is great to hear from returning guests and we were pleased to hear that you enjoyed the refurbishments that the property has undergone since your last stay. Harbourside sounds like the perfect property for both you and your extended family. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon! Owner relations
Mr CHARLES Haine

“Brilliant accommodation, in fabulous location, with superb views.”

Thank you for your lovely feedback regarding your recent stay at Harbourside. We do agree that this fantastic property is in a fabulous location - being near the river's edge and just a 5 minutes walk to the town centre with its restaurants, shops and pubs. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Owner relations
Mr C Buckley

“This is a fantastic apartment and the second time we've stayed here.”

Nicely furnished and very well equipped with those lovely views of the Dart. The only downside is the faff of parking to unload but a small price to pay. We'd stay here again.

Thank you so much for your review of your second stay at Harbourside in Dartmouth. We were delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your stay in this fantastic apartment with such outstanding views across Dartmouth harbour and out to sea. We look forward to welcoming you back again for a third stay in the very near future! Owner relations
Mrs Valerie Lloyd

“The apartment was beyond expectations - luxury as far as we were concerned.”

It had everything we could have asked for and more. The views over the estuary were stunning. We frequently sat in the window after our evenings out as the river was a hive of activity with the ferries going backwards and forwards. There was even a pair of binoculars. It was such a relaxing break and we would definitely consider re-booking at some time in the future. If I could mention anything - and this is only something rather trivial - it would help if the owners compiled a folder with details of various eateries (restaurants/pubs and take-aways) they recommended. There were various leaflets, maps, ferry details etc., but some were out of date. We did have a few take-aways and quickly discovered that one fish shop was better than the other we had chosen. Also we did eat out at an indian restaurant one evening, but were later told by the lady working behind the bar at the Dartmouth Arms that we had not chosen the best indian restaurant. Recommendations are always good and also guests could maybe be encouraged to make recommendations if they have had a good meal somewhere.

Many thanks for your wonderful review regarding your chosen holiday apartment, Harbourside, in Dartmouth. We were so pleased to hear that you had a fantastic time! Your feedback in respect of the provision of an owner's folder has been noted and forwarded to our Dartmouth team. We are also arranging to ensure that any out of date literature is removed from the property - apologies for any inconvenience caused. Thanks again for your review, we hope to welcome you back to Dartmouth again very 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.

Access to the property is via 30 stone steps.

NOTE - No parking at the property - parking permit supplied (car park is approximately 10-15 minute walk from the apartment). Please note that the Mayors Avenue car park is closed for the Regatta Week and parking will be at the Dartmouth Park and Ride
