Dittisham 3 Bedrooms

This property was incredible! We loved the view over the beautiful estuary, which could be enjoyed from out outdoor seating or the communal bench. The property was spacious and well equipped, finished to a high standard. There's lots to explore in the local area.

Had a lovely time as always. Just to let you know that the shower doesn't work and there was an old cake in the drawers that hadn't been removed. We brought our mattress topper with us for the bed in the spare bedroom because the mattress was uncomfortable last year. Such beautiful views from the property and a great location, thank you.

Excellent stay at Herons Reach Thanks Please just tell people where the bins are in the instructions

A spacious, airy and comfortable property which was well equipped. Very peaceful setting, the outlook from the property was stunning and use of the communal large grass area with views over the Dart was a big bonus. Dedicated parking spaces for 2 cars directly outside the property. Great location to be able to get a ferry from the village to Dartmouth or across the water to Greenway, also for some lovely walks from the village meaning we didn’t need to use the car every day. Will definitely be back. The driving directions to get to the property provided by Dart Valley Cottages (complete with photos!) we’re the best I’ve ever received!

Third time annual visit, superb location with lovely views. Good car parking and all the facilities we need. Dartmouth not far away for fine dining if desired.

The accommodation at Heron Reach was fine and there was everything we needed for our stay. I imagine the small fridge wouldn’t be enough for four people though.

The views are amazing and stunning and the property on the whole is great. However, the kitchen is out of date and the beds were really uncomfortable so sadly we did not sleep so well.

We enjoyed staying in Dittisham very much, it's a great place to explore on foot (which was nice alternative to navigating the single track roads by car) - we enjoyed walking down either side of the valley and the option of getting a ferry across the river and back from Dartmouth to Dittisham was very convenient and good fun. It was lovely to spend to catch the last rays of sun at the end of the day by the pontoon at the Ferry Boat Inn, but be aware there's not much seating inside or out and they only do (albeit very nice) pizzas in the summer. Probably a good idea to ring and book a table inside if the weather's not good. Heron's Reach is a very comfortable and pleasant holiday home in a small development at the edge of the village. The booking process direct with Dart Valley Cottages was smooth and easy and much cheaper than booking through an affiliate partner but I think that they do not provide much in the way of cancellation cover, so bear that in mind. Communication from them was very professional, maybe a even a bit over the top - I think I have received 7 emails from them regarding the booking with some information buried in one of multiple attachments - but it was very professional and easy enough to find the information I needed with lots of opportunities to contact them. The property has a small but sunny decking area with two folding chairs and a table which makes the most of the beautiful view of the valley. There is a communal lawned area and a bench in front. There were two parking spots for this property Inside was very light and airy with a vaulted ceiling and plenty of soft seating with two large sofas and a kitchen table. Some of the furniture and ornaments were a little dated but it was very comfortable and clean. The same goes for the kitchen which was very clean and functional but the fridge was a little bit rusty and frosted up and there was no dishwasher - but it was fine for us. Downstairs there are two spacious double bedrooms, a separate toilet and a family bathroom which would be big plus with a house full - no waiting to use the loo. Again it was very clean and comfortable and everything worked perfectly.

Overall good but fridge door does not close properly at the top and many curtain tracks do not work smoothly

I highly recommend this choice. It’s a fantastic location with lovely views of the river and short walk to Dittisham jetty. The cottage had everything we needed.
