About this property

Comfortable Apartment With Parking & Patio Garden, Quiet Location Close To River

A spacious, well equipped ground floor apartment with patio garden and parking for one car. Quiet cul-de-sac location with easy access to the head of the creek, the National Trust woodlands at Hoodown, the village shop, cafe and pubs.

Open plan living room with integral dining space, fully fitted and well equipped kitchen. One bedroom with a kingsize double bed. Shower room. Enclosed private garden with space to sit out, dry clothes and store bicycles, canoes, surf boards etc. TV and Wifi provided.

The apartment is set up to be an unfussy environment in which to relax and enjoy your holiday. The floors are all laminate so you don't have to worry about spilling wine on expensive carpets! It's also ideal for bringing your dog.

The Apartment is an ideal base for exploring the area with many short, medium and long walk options right from the front door. If you want to travel further afield then there are three ferry options to Dartmouth depending on whether you want to take the car or just use the foot passenger ferry. There is a bus stop 30 yards away if you want to go to Brixham, Paignton and Torbay without the car. But if you do want to take the car then you can guarantee you'll be able to park right by the front door when you return, and that's something not many properties in Kingswear or Dartmouth can offer!

Great place to stay

Great property, surprisingly large and full of modern amenities and everything you need. We loved the location, very quiet spot with private garden, great for a BBQ. Also it is only a very short walk to Kingswear ferry and into Dartmouth.

Lovely Kingswear

Well equipped apartment in Kingswear with it’s own parking space, absolute blessing in this area. Approx 10-15 min walk to the ferry across to Dartmouth, can be a tricky walk in the dark as along the creek and no footpath on the road. But we’ll worth it as local pubs in Kingswear very good and loads of choice where to eat and drink across in Dartmouth. Lovely week and would certainly visit again.

Convenient level position in Kingsweir.Good sized flat with all amenities.I am disabled & didn't like the very low double bed which was not very comfortable. Same goes for the settee - I had to use the cushions to sit comfortably.

Nice property overall

Excellent position for enjoying this part of Devon. So loved the Waterhead Creek walk into Kingswear, which Molly the Beagle enjoyed every morning. Spacious well equipped flat but we could tell it was the end of the summer season as mold around bath and wall in the bathroom - cleaners must not see this as part of their remit. That aside all was good and the owners very helpful when we lost the paper with the key code on it and had a query about rubbish collections!!! Would stay again.

Brilliant place, away from centre but within 10 minutes creek side stroll.

Excellent apartment, well appointed, great layout and size for two people. The pictures and description were spot on. The garden is beautiful, it has a large patio and terraced borders full of ferns and woodland plants going backwards to the woods. It would benefit by having the next terrace landscaped for seating so you’d catch the late afternoon/ early evening sun. It’s very close to the creek and beautiful walks along the River Dart. We had an excellent time, we walked into Kingswear every evening or walked and caught ferry to Dartmouth and had dinner. Great location, many places in Dartmouth and Kingswear do not have parking or gardens so this was perfect.

A great holiday in Kingswear

Ideal for what we wanted, so handy for all the places we wanted to go to, very convenient for the Ferry across to Dartmouth, Steam train and excellent dog walks. Also the flat was situated in a very quiet cul-de-sac and one of the few places with its own car parking outside the property on its own drive.

Lovely Appartment,

Peter was a great host for his property answering all queries promptly. The appartment was better than described complete with a new well equipped modern kitchen. The location is very relaxed and central to towns in Devon, Brixham, Paignton, Torquay, Totnes and some lovely beaches, Blackpool sands & Slapton. Kingswear is very quiet with only one pub, shop & a bistro open at the moment. Dartmouth is a quick local ferry ride away. Steam train to Paignton also just down the road. The property has on site parking & a car is desirable for this area. Very dog friendly as the rear garden is enclosed. Overall, we loved it, fantastic holiday, thanks Peter. Kevin, Jo & Lily the Westie.

Kingswear for Two

A spacious downstairs accommodation ideal for two people plus a dog. Well kitted out kitchen with good quality implements, crockery etc. Be warned though, the TV reception for this area is poor and only decent for BBC! You might need an Ipad if a ITV fan The property is located a 12 minute walk to the ferry at Kingswear and there are some very good dog walks in the vicinity. The area around the Creek is also very pleasant. The only downside to the property is that the outside, especially the rear garden, could do with some urgent attention. The garden is overgrown and not too pleasant to sit in. Also very gloomy at the back. One bonus is that the bus stop for Brixham and Paignton is only 80 yards away with a regular bus service. An enjoyable holiday!

We had a nice stay in your flat. It was very comfortable and well equipped. The king size bed was much appreciated. Everything was good. Shame it was quite damp inside, but we kept the doors and windows opened as much as possible. It was a great base for our week holiday. Thank you.

Lovely stay

In a perfect location to enjoy Dartmouth and the surrounding area the perfect place to park the car up for the week lovely walks straight from the door and lots of nice places to visit by ferry. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay and a big bonus for us was a garden for the dogs I do think we would prefer to stay in Kingswear rather than Dartmouth as we enjoyed the walks and ferry rides so much Hopefully we will be back soon Thank you

About the host

Hosted by Peter Martin

Host profile image
We are active, outdoorsy people with three dogs and a small boat which is on a trailer outside the apartment. We love walking in the woods and along the coast paths, and spending days with the dogs on the beach at Man Sands. We also love pottering up the river on our boat and visiting the Anchorstone Cafe at Dittisham, famous for local seafood. We are also interested in wildlife particularly the many seabirds we see on the Dart, including egrets and oyster catchers. It's also a good day when we see seals and dolphins in the harbour! Having said that, we also love to settle in with a good book and a glass of something nice, and just relax!

Why they chose this property

We bought the upstairs apartment in 2006 because we have always loved Dartmouth and being by the sea. We acquired the downstairs flat in 2012. We like Kingswear because it's a bit quieter than Dartmouth and because the dog walking and boat launching is right on the doorstep. However, all the fun and bustle of Dartmouth is just a short ferry ride away (or trip on the boat) but we can leave it behind when we want a little peace! Kingswear has a proper village atmosphere and it's a lovely little community where everyone knows each other. We chose the apartment for it's simple practicality, as we spend most of our time outdoors. Also, we have our own parking space!

What makes this property unique

Being in a cul-de-sac means the 'street', such as it is, is safe and quiet. The most noise we get comes from the owls in the woods at night!
