“A parking permit would have been useful”
“A great house for a break by the sea.”

Thank you for your lovely comments. We are delighted that you had an enjoyable holiday at The Retreat and look forward to seeing you again soon. The Team at Coast & Country Cottages. Owner relations
“If there was an 'average' rating for The Retreat I would have to use it rather than good.”

Although it slept 5 (including one child) there was not enough seating at the kitchen table for 5 people and one of us had to sit on the sofa to eat. If you can't seat 5, you shouldn't advertise the house for 5. Even children need to sit at a table to eat. We had trouble getting the TV to work despite following the instructions to the letter and couldn't get the TV in the main bedroom to work at all. I couldn't find instructions for the washing machine which wasn't very intuitive.
“Would definitely recommend.”
“Cottage was lovely - perhaps could have done with one extra stair gate at the foot of the stairs but this is only a very minor thing!”

! Thanks

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. 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 Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular sandy beaches are a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.

Please note that there is no parking at the property and no parking permit is provided for this property also. All bed linen and bath/hand towels are supplied. You will need to bring your own tea towels beach towels and oven gloves.
