About this cottage rental

Curlew Cottage is a picturesque holiday cottage with stunning views of the river and surrounding valley from the garden, conservatory, and master bedroom. In the delightful waterside village of Dittisham, Curlew is pet friendly and perfectly equipped for four guests to enjoy a relaxing self-catering holiday. It's just a short walk to the village and the quay, where you can catch the ferries to Dartmouth and Greenway or stay and enjoy the locally renowned Anchorstone Café and Ferry Boat Inn.

Accommodation:

The front door opens into a small entrance hall with space for coats and boots and leads to a cosy lounge with a brick fireplace and open fire, a sofa and two armchairs, and a TV with DVD.

Steps down from the lounge lead to the very well-equipped kitchen-diner, with a tiled floor, oven, hob and extractor, integrated fridge-freezer, microwave, and dining area. A door from the kitchen opens into the conservatory with an additional dining area and views over the garden and river. The conservatory also houses the washer-dryer.

A narrow, twisting staircase from the sitting room takes you up to the two bedrooms and a bathroom. The en-suite master bedroom has fantastic views of the river and features an iron bedstead. There is a small adjoining dressing room.

The second bedroom has twin iron beds and a feature fireplace. The family bathroom has a bath with an overhead shower. There's also a small WC at the bottom of the stairs.

There's electric heating and an open fire. One basket of logs is provided between October and the end of April.

Outside:

The garden at the rear features well-tended flowerbeds, a lawn and lovely views of the river. A paved area with garden furniture lets you to make the most of this picturesque setting.

Parking:

There is no private parking at the cottage, but you can pull up outside to unload, and there are a few unrestricted spaces just along the road and ample free unrestricted parking around the corner on Riverside Road.

Nearby:

The village pub, The Red Lion, is a 2-minute walk up the road. The Red Lion also hosts the village shop and post office. A 10-minute walk will take you to The Quay where you will find the Ferry Boat Inn and The Anchorstone Cafe, as well as ferries to Greenway and Dartmouth.

A fantastic house in a fantastic location. The team at Dart Valley cottages could not have been more helpful in making our stay perfect.

Beautiful cottage with stunning views of the Dart. Sadly the local Pub is now run by the Community so is only open Tue. Fri. & Sat. nights between 6-10 and does not serve food. Also the Patio with amazing views isn't open so we were very disappointed. The only cafe in the village is for sale and not open. Lack of parking is a nuisance. We would love to go again but only if the Pub & Cafe are open.

We had a wonderful stay at this well appointed cottage, stylish decor, superb views with everything we needed. Conservatory such a bonus especially in the mornings over breakfast and to sit in on wet days! We love ‘Ditsum’ and will return
