Car parking wasn't an issue but could have been one, but that's the same for any Dartmouth resident or visitor. We parked on the riverside on the Embankment, 3-400 metres from Blacksmith... There is nothing our hosts can do to fix that. It's first come, first served.

Location was very central and yet quiet...really comfortable bed, good shower, well equipped kitchen.

Some other people have mentioned that it would be good to have a full-length mirror there. I agree! There's plenty of space for one. Also, it would be useful if oven gloves and a dustpan and brush could be provided. Also a table lamp for the small table in the living area, where the light was really bad. Small additions which wouldn't cost much but would make all the difference. There were areas where cleanliness could have been improved, for instance round the edge of the loo seat, the fridge, between the slats of the table.

Great apartment in a perfect location. Good and easy instructions for accessing the apartment. Very quiet. Good shower. I enjoyed my week's stay there.

The apartment was lovely. The location perfect. It was very clean and well equipped. Comfortable bed, excellent shower. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return, Dartmouth is one of our favourite places. Would highly recommend Blacksmiths.

With the parking situation in Dartmouth being as it is maybe Blacksmiths would consider purchasing an annual parking permit for The Mayor's car park as so many other holiday let's do. You only have a maximum of 4 hours parking in the main car parks and 2 hours on the street. You can park all day using the park and ride facilities but if you would like to have lunch in Dartmouth with alcohol this is not possible as you need to still return your car for the over night parking in Central Dartmouth. We found to our own mistake that parking in The Mayor's car park and chancing a longer stay is not possible. We used the Ringo App too top up the parking but received 2 parking tickets during our stay. So please Blacksmiths dip in your pocket and purchase a permit, I would be happy to pay extra on the stay with a permit.

As always a comfortable stay and thoroughly enjoyed Dartmouth. Blacksmiths is an ideal location to stay as being so central. Facilities within the property are ideal and cater for those who wish to cook there own meals. This is are 3 stay here and will be returning. The only downside perhaps to our stay this time is it looked as though the cleaning had been rushed as floorings showing signs of dust and food bits.

Nothing to do with the property but the adjoining property woke us up on two nights singing loudly & playing music. Don’t think they realised how far the noise would carry with the window open in the bedroom

Fantastic location Well equipped property Easy to find & access

We're used to a kingsize bed so a double is snug, not the something the host would know though. Mattress could do with upgrading.

Fab location, very central, got lucky with parking which was a bonus. Apartment is great, everything well thought out and clean.

No dust pan and brush… you would be surprised how far a split bag of crisps can travel and we did not want to fill the hoover up. Other than that we had everything we needed

We liked Everything… location was excellent…the inside was beautiful, clean, perfectly suited to us for everything we needed was there… excellent directions…we will stay again

Ideally situated to explore Dartmouth, river front, shops and restaurants all within walking distance. The apartment is spacious, comfortable and well equipped. We would recommend this.

unfortunately several key areas of cleanliness we’d addressing ie fridge needs cleaning cooker good extraction filter hasn’t been cleaned for a considerable time a lot of areas haven’t been dusted ie skirting boards in bathroom,bedside table areas,and cobwebs in areas,basically sack the existing house keeper and employ one whom who’s job it is,or accept constructive criticism

first impressions good however upon closer inspection certain things need addressing

lipstick on cup in cupboard and cereal bowl in draw … with remnants of cereal in it … pack of biscuits left for us was open with one missing. Dropped an earring which went under the bed - found it had clearly not been cleaned under there for a long time!

spacious enough for two and central to everything

I think if I was being picky I would have a shelf in the bathroom to put all of our toiletries on. Also a full length mirror would be nice, but these small details didn’t change how much we enjoyed our stay.

So many things we loved; the space in the apartment, location, super comfortable mattress, the vaulted ceilings, the oven (fantastic for cooking Xmas dinner), general decor, heating (very warm property), shower, and the owner couldn’t have been more accommodating.
