    Such a unique place. So cleverly fitted out as a boat that during a storm we believed we were on the high seas! Stunning views, wonderful food at Alf Rescos and the parking permit made things so easy. The position in central Dartmouth couldn't be better. We are planning to revisit asap and wouldn't hesitate te recommend the cabin.

    Our third stay at the Captain’s Cabin, spanning many years. Needed the hidden heater this visit after a first chilly night. It was all resolved the following day-thank you. Gorgeous views and delicious breakfast at Alf Rescoes highlights. Small but everything you need for a couple of nights. (Really draughty windows -could do with a bit of attention)
