    Lovely B&B right on Dartmouth’s beautiful waterfront. Nice modern decor, excellent breakfast!

    The only downside was that the en-suite bathroom was very cramped, although we appreciate it would be difficult given the size of the room to make it any bigger. No on-site parking which wasn’t a problem as we could park outside overnight, but would be more challenging in high season.

    Fantastic waterfront location, nice modern decor. Our room had a sunny terrace at the back of the property, so no sea view but nice to have outside space. Hosts were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellent, a lovely healthy buffet selection and fabulous cooked breakfast.

    If anything: Room was very small, but had everything needed. This was known before, so ok. For a longer stay I would rather book a bigger room.

    Great location. Fantastic breakfast - the very best we had during this or prior UK vacations. Room and whole B&B was beautifully and newly styled and decorated with a lot of consideration even on small details.

    A smart, tidy and extremely clean place with friendly staff. We stayed in The Knook room which is perfectly adequate, but worth noting that it is definitely on the cosy side of cosy. Lovely being able to have breakfast while enjoying the view across the river and down to the castle.

    There wasn’t anything that we didn’t like.

    Absolutely lovely property. Great location on the waterfront and close to all the local restaurants and amenities including the car ferry. On arrival we upgraded to a room with a view over the water. We would definitely choose this option in future. The Waterfront House is obviously cared for by Julie and the team. Everything is of high quality. The breakfast was of very high quality. They get their sausages and bacon from a local butcher and everything was tasty and fresh. Highly recommended. Pricey but worth it to treat yourself in a beautiful part of the country.

    Cannot think of a single fault - all superb!

    What an excellent place... Waterfront House exudes pure, unpretentious quality in all respects - fixtures and fittings in the room, food options for breakfast, the proper white cotton napkins at the table, the coffee machine and cookies in the room ... everything, really. Very warm welcome from hosts Julie and Jon. We had only booked the small 'nook' room but were offered the chance to upgrade for a small additional charge. So pleased we took the opportunity - the 'Estuary' room had a fantastic view of the river through a bay window. The binoculars on the window sill were a nice touch!
