Very narrow road and parking space is awkward - but we knew this before we went

Fabulous views

Acces to the property a bit tricky due to narrow road, still they provide a free parking slot next to. Clearing rubbish could be a bit easier for visitors, who now need to take it down the stairs to a designated area.

Amazing location with stunning views. Nice cottage with lots of facilities, cookware and pretty much everything you need for a relaxing getaway.

The issue of parking is a problem within Dartmouth. With the property sleeping 6, many like ourselves would have 2 cars. However the property only has space for 1 car. I would recommend the property offer a parking permit for Mayors Avenue.

The views were absolutely fantastic along with the ideal location to the town centre making everything easily accessible.

Driving up the narrow road to get to it. I’m not sure if it’s mentioned in the details of the property but particularly large vehicles would struggle

The view was absolutely amazing

On Suite shower very poor, we had to all use the one in the other bathroom which made the morning rush interesting.

It is all about the location and the view.

For us the walk into town was tough due to the location and the amount of steps. (but of course this gave us the views).

Views were amazing from the house. House was well equipped.

Parking and just getting to the location is a bit hairy. That road needs to be one-way as it’s no fun reversing down very tight roads (there was scaffolding up in several places in the road, leaving very little room for error), up a hill and round a bend to locate a driveway to let other vehicles pass. The garage shown on Google maps is shared with 118 and you have to park very carefully-at an angle (unless you’re in Smart car or a Bubble car(!)- and despite not having an estate car, I needed family help with getting snuggled into the parking space and my rear wing still stood out slightly. Needless to say I abandoned any ideas of using the car whilst there as I’d come away to relax.

Quite frankly, the most amazing views. We were so lucky with the weather and did manage to sit outside to eat/drink …in October! Plenty of space in the house, plenty of resources if you wanted to cook too. Very quiet location. Just the occasional toot from the steam train at Kingswear and the car ferry at times. Very relaxing.

Some of the decor was a bit tired. Some of the ceilings had boards on maybe from a leak! The back garden was a work in progress. There were no hooks to hang towels and clothes in the bathrooms.

There's a warning in the property description about the40 orso steps up to the front door - but no mention of the trek from the the town that you have to climb up to even reach the house! Not a place you feel like popping in and out of during the day - the wonderful view has seriously to be worked for. Not a problem if you're young and fit though. The parkinghowever, couldbe a problemfor most people; a difficualt to negotiate spot .only just off the very narrow road. Once we had parked we couldn't face having to do it again - the car stayed put. Maybe not altogether a bad thing. However these two issues, both location related put me off giving ' Out To Sea' absolute full marks. This is obviously subjective and might not bother people. Q

Property was very well kept and pleasant. Spotlessly clean ( as you would expect) and having a separate shower as well as bathroom was very convenient. The views were spectacular and the kitchen was very well equipped. Furniture and beds were comfortable and it was altogether a lovely place to relax.

Perfect location with stunning views. The house was clean, well furnished and had everything we needed. The only slight negative was the pillows were uncomfortable! Other than that everything was perfect.

Comfortable, fabulous views, handy location.

tight entrance at the bottom of the house for the car, struggled to get our 7 seater car in the garage, however it would be easier for smaller cars to be managed. I would just give an warning for cars greater than 5-6ft to be cautious

stunning views with amazing front garden kitchen well equipped very clean superb small town just a wonderful holiday

Nothing, apart from I forgot there’d be steep steps up to the front door too, but we travelled light.

Amazing views (without the scaffolding from next door that we were still half expecting, work is done, and neighbours were also lovely). Helpful people managing property too. We booked at short notice, and I was worried about location up steps, but it wasn’t too bad at all, near to all the restaurants and shops, and well worth it for the quiet, and the views of course! Oh and parking was right at front of house too.

There were some personalised touches to the property which made it homely. Good curtains for quality sleep, mattress was reasonably comfortable but surprisingly there were cheap bed side lamps which if upgraded would raise the level of visual comfort. The lounge furniture also looked a bit tired ditto shower cubicle which would benefit from an upgrade in the future for cleanliness etc. We did still thoroughly enjoy our stay and think this property would be ideally suited for family with children. For us just on a pure personal level we prefer a bit more lux.

Location and elevated views were exceptional . With that came the steps down to town and back up, which was good for our fitness. Grateful for the parking space despite being tight but we knew this from a previous review so were prepared. House was comfortable and warm, practical and everything provided for a self sufficient holiday stay.

We had a few issues with the house, but the management team were quick to respond to emails. Generally, the house could probably do with some fine-tuning. As the house is situated high above the town, there are lots of steps/steep roads to climb. Roads are very narrow for vehicles too.

Although the house was situated high up looking over the river Dart, the location was perfect, with spectacular views. The house was a good size for the five of us. It has a front patio with table and chairs, which is fabulous to watch river traffic with a glass of wine!

accessibility difficult for older or infirm people especially with builders scaffolding on access stairs builders working next door and view impaired by scaffolding - we would not have booked it had we known car access very difficult especially for larger cars - rentors should be warned

location is excellent
