About this property
Courtyard House is a delightful stone cottage, in a fabulous picturesque and relatively quiet street, yet within only a few minutes’ walk of Dartmouth’s famous waterfront, boutiques, galleries and restaurants. For those looking to explore South Devon’s coastline, the beaches of Start Bay can be reached within a 10-15 minute drive, whilst the all-weather family attraction Woodlands Leisure Park is just four miles away.
The property has a modern, well equipped open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room on the ground floor. On the first floor is a twin bedroom with plenty of storage and an en suite shower room. From this level, a door leads to a decked balcony with a table and four chairs – the perfect spot for enjoying an al fresco drink in the summer sunshine. On the second floor is a spacious double room, with King-size wooden bed, plus a fully tiled, contemporary en suite bathroom.
The property benefits from parking for one car in the courtyard - however please be aware that Clarence Hill is a relatively narrow lane with few passing places.
Courtyard House is a fabulous bolthole for a relaxing break in beautiful surroundings – ideal for couples or families with children over the age of 5 only.
Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the stunning Start Bay coastline, 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 popular events such as the annual Dart Music Festival, Dartmouth Food Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta. This historic town boasts interesting landmarks, such as Dartmouth Castle, the Britannia Royal Naval College, and the National Trust’s Greenway House just a short ferry ride away. 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 the rolling countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat or ferry trip across to Kingswear, on to Brixham, or down the river to the village of Dittisham. For those seeking sandy beaches, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular beaches just a stone's throw from Dartmouth.

Great location, easy to walk into town or off around the coastal path. We didn't move the car all week.

The location was perfect. Short walk to the center. Everything was provided for a relaxing stay. Accommodation was excellent overall. Only thing to be aware of is itâs tight to park your car if somebody is in the parking space next to you! We have a Volvo XC40 and we just managed it but had to move flower pots in Main Street to get outâ¦â¦..and only had a few centimeters between wall and side of car.

Perfect location, within easy walking distance into town. Very well equipped, exceeded our expectations, the advert doesn't do it justice it is much nicer in reality. If we had one criticism it would be the road access instructions. The office from where we collected the keys should advise if you have a wide car to enter Clarence Hill from the top end, not the bottom. Once this is known getting to the property is much easier. We are very much looking forward to returning to this cottage, we loved it.
