Guests appreciate the clean, spacious interiors, secure garden for dogs, and proximity to supermarkets and public transport. The property is quiet and convenient, with easy access to local attractions.

Overall, Wagtails is highly regarded for its cleanliness, location, and suitability for dog owners.
Multiple reviews highlight the property as very clean, modern, and well-presented. Only one minor mention of a cleanliness issue due to a faulty hoover, but this did not detract significantly from the overall impression.
Guests consistently praise the location for its convenience to supermarkets, bus stops, and Dartmouth town centre. The quiet setting and easy access to local attractions are frequently mentioned as positives.

Booked last minute so got a week at a very god price. New, clean property with everything you need. Close to Sainsburys and Lidl. Park & ride vey close by or you can get the bus in to Dartmouth from outside Sainsburys just a 5min walk away. If you want to walk into Dartmouth it’s just a 30min walk, but very steep. We would definitely stay here again.

Would recommend this property as the location is perfect for Dartmouth and surrounding South Hams area. Clean and fresh inside and fully enclosed garden for dog, but weeds growing in pebbles. Maybe some love and attention needed there . Only issue was the seating. A previous review mentioned the sofa. It was so uncomfortable it could not be used at all and the single chair wasnt much better after a days walking. Also the table seating needs to be looked at aswell. If it wasnt for this we would be rebooking for next year.
