    “We had another fantastic week at The Old Wash House!”

    It’s truly a home-from-home: it’s well appointed, clean and cared for, with comfortable furniture and lovely decorative touches (we were welcomed with an autumnal theme). We had gorgeous weather but, having visited the cottage all year round, we know TOWH is the best base from which to explore Dartmouth and beyond (the car parking space is a rarity in the town and such a bonus). Thank you, once again, to the Wright Crew!
