Nestled behind the historic Bayards Cove you will find Gulls Nest - a perfectly equipped apartment for one couple in the heart of this ancient, picturesque town. With one bedroom, a well-equipped compact kitchen, living room, and shower room, you’re only a stone’s throw from Dartmouth’s riverside charms and boats connecting you across the Dart Valley. Premier restaurants and inns are on your doorstep, as is one of the world’s longest and most-popular walking routes – the South West Coast Path.

Dartmouth is a town steeped in maritime history, from the castle at the mouth of the river that has stood for over 600 years to the cobbled quayside at Bayards Cove where the Mayflower was made ship-shape before its voyage from Plymouth to America in the 1600s, up to the imposing Britannia Royal Naval College overlooking the town, defending the nation's seas since the early 1900s. Dartmouth's renowned variety of shops and restaurants are on your doorstep, including breakfast and brunch hotspot Café Alf Resco - a hit with locals and visitors alike. At Bayards Cove, see where final repairs were made to the Mayflower before she set sail from Plymouth and onto America. On the riverside, you're spoilt for choice for seafood dining and drinks while you watch the boats drift along the river. There are also fast, frequent ferries, leisurely boat rides, and not forgetting the steam train from Kingswear and its romantic route along the valley shoreline and onto Totnes and Torbay. Dining Out Vibrant cafés and delis, cosy inns, and sublime seafood - all within walking distance - including TV chef Mitch Tonks' go-to restaurants, ‘The Seahorse’ and ‘Rockfish’. Local favourites...
