About this property

Nestled on the edge of the charming town of Totnes, Devon lies this quaint, single-storey dwelling, Dart View Hideout. Benefitting from a studio-style layout, dog-friendly living and close proximity to the local amenities and attractions, Dart View Hideout welcomes two guests, perfect for a couple or even two friends sharing who are seeking to get away from it all. After parking up, make your way to your new home-from-home down some steps and a sloping pathway, passing the superb outdoor space with a sail cover so you can truly make the most of your beautiful surroundings. Inside, be impressed by the quaint but well-equipped kitchenette, featuring all the necessary appliances required to prepare simple meals for your loved one, to be enjoyed either at the dining table or outside, sipping a cold glass of fizz as you toast to a memorable escape. On cooler evenings, curl up on the sofa and click on the TV, resting your tired legs after a long day of exploring your surroundings, or head to the sleek shower room where you can treat yourself to a warm shower prior to completing your night-time routine. When sleep calls, crawl into the plush double bed, dropping off into a refreshing night’s sleep in preparation for another exciting day. If you can tear yourself away, take a 10 minute walk down into the centre of Totnes, home to Totnes Castle, a well-preserved Norman castle with commanding views of the town and River Dart and Totnes Elizabethan House Museum where you can step back in time to learn more about the daily life and history of the town during the Elizabethan era. Head to the River Dart Country Park if you’re seeking a scenic spot to delight in various outdoor activities such as zip-lining, canoeing, high ropes courses and hiking or if you’re after something a little less strenuous, why not spend the day in Dartington, perfect for sampling a variety of unique shops, pubs and artisans, as well as exploring Dartington Hall, a stunning medieval estate featuring gardens, art galleries and craft shops. Along the coast, spend a day at a selection of beautiful beaches including Torquay, Broadsands and Babbacombe Beach, building sandcastles, paddling the shores, or simply soaking up the sun. For an unforgettable retreat in Devon, escape to Dart View Hideout.

The market town of Totnes is at the head of the estuary of the River Dart, in the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its historic Fore Street is lined with interesting shops, tea rooms, restaurants and a weekly Elizabethan market, offering local produce and unique finds. During the festive period, the streets of Totnes come alive with its annual Christmas market. From Totnes, set off on walking routes with stunning backdrops along the Dart Valley Trail, or explore the historic Totnes Castle. The historic naval town of Dartmouth and the shops and estate at Dartington are just a short drive away.

  • Jayne

    You do need to be fairly fit as the steps are steep and the walk back from town is hilly. Ideal for the spring & summer, but we were unlucky with the weather.

  • Michelle

    The views of Totnes and river are worth the climb , giving you the perfect feeling of being tucked away from the town , but close enough that your fish and chips are still hot to enjoy on the wooden terrace, on your return. The accommodation is small ( think studio ) but everything is well thought out and you want for nothing. It's well designed and very clean and welcoming .

  • Joe

    It is tastefully decorated and furnished and is in a great location with excellent views over the Dart Valley. Access is via about 4o steps down from the parking space - so being able bodied is essential, this does mean that the Hide Out is very quiet and secluded. There are trails at the bottom of the steep garden along valley and into Totnes - (down a very steep bank to get to them) The owners were very helpful and dealt with some minor issues immediately. Cooking faculties are very basic , though there is an outdoor bar b q and smoker that we did not use.
