About this property

Leeward is a well-presented, second-floor apartment situated in Dartmouth, Devon. Seated on the edge of Dartmouth Harbour, with breathtaking water views this property sleeps four and has two allocated parking spaces, making it perfect for small groups and families wanting to discover the beauties Devon has to offer. Head up the stairs or lift to the entrance of the apartment, where you’ll be welcomed into an open-plan living/dining area flooded with light from the windows which also showcase beautiful views of the river. Sink into the sofas to watch something on the Smart TV or sit around the dining table awaiting the heartwarming meals that your group’s designated chef can whip up in the kitchen. Unwind with a hot shower or bath in the spacious family bathroom then retreat to either a king-size or twin room, (which can alternatively be made up as a king size) also boasting harbour views where you’ll be able to watch the birds and boats on the river and the coming and going of the steam train on the opposite bank. The apartment is within walking distance to The Floating Bridge, a riverside pub with outdoor seating for those hot days, and The Singing Kettle tearoom where you can sip on fragrant tea and savour delicious cakes. Dartmouth also boasts plenty of top notch restaurants including Mitch Tonks' renowned eatery The Seahorse and the classic bistro Embankment with the best views in town. Venture out to the rest of the lovely town of Dartmouth, home to a wealth of culture and history with the Dartmouth Museum, Bayard’s Cove Fort, Dartmouth Castle with its spectacular estuary views and the beautiful Royal Avenue Gardens and its grassy lawns, fountain and flower beds. Don’t forget to take the kids for a day of thrilling fun at Woodlands Family Theme Park. A scenic drive will take you to Brixham, part of the breathtaking English Riviera, where you’ll stroll along the marina and enjoy the views of Brixham Harbour, as well as its plethora of seafood eateries like Rockfish and La Petite Maison, both offering outside seating with water views. Take a hike on the trails of Berry Head National Nature Reserve and see if you can make it to Berry Head Lighthouse. For those after a more relaxing activity, don your bathing suit and paddle about the water or soak in the sun on the sand at Sugary Cove. Amazing adventures await you at Leeward.

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.

    Just two things; the single beds were far too narrow and there was no food recycling caddy or black rubbish bags provided. However, highly recommended for a relaxing stay in a lovely town.

  • Leanne

    The owners have gone above and beyond with all their thoughtfulness. With the delights of this scenic town all within a 5 minute stroll out the front door along the promenade. Endless hours could be spent watching the river boat travel and enjoying the steam train and its memorable whistle. We absolutely recommend this new holiday let and thankyou and well done to the owners for sharing your slice of heaven.

    The following perhaps just prevented a 10 out of 10 score 1. Booking... The system didn't work too well kept telling me sykes Site stated Property wasn't available when your site said it was 2. Keys... We were asked to collect after 4pm on a sunday.. Took several emails and whatsapp chat to get this resolved 3. Apartment was too cold on arrival 4. Can't think of a 4 We loved our stay and Leeward would be a place we looked to return too, we have been to Dartmouth many times The local staff are great too
