About this cottage rental
Accommodation
This stylish, comfortable and very well equipped apartment which is beautifully maintained by its owners offers a delightful property in which to enjoy its wonderful waterfront location.
8 Mayflower Court features a filtered heat recovery system to aid airflow throughout and with its slightly raised insulated floors this gives the added benefit of even better views of the water. Electric radiators and underfloor heating keeps the apartment snug in the cooler months.
From the private parking area at the rear of the property, there are 24 steps up to the back door (there is also access from the front via the well-lit internal staircase). The back door opens into the well-equipped kitchen with an induction hob, oven, fridge-freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and washer-dryer. There's also a Nespresso coffee machine and a Bluetooth speaker with DAB radio.
The open-plan living/dining area is laid out to make the most of the beautiful panoramic views of the river and embankment. It is furnished with a 2/3-seater sofa and coordinating armchairs and coffee tables, all with accent wood frames, a bookcase, smart TV, and an Internet-connected radio. The circular oak dining table and upholstered chairs are set by the window, providing one of the best dining spots in Dartmouth, as well as the ideal place to enjoy a coffee with the newspaper.
The spacious master bedroom - with a king-size bed, fitted wardrobe, and bedside table - also has a sizeable river-facing window - perfect for enjoying an early morning ‘cuppa'!
The second bedroom has twin beds and a fitted wardrobe.
The spacious family bathroom features a bath, a generous shower, and a heated towel rail.
Parking
Enclosed private parking is available at the rear of the property. This is strictly one car per apartment, the bays vary from two 3.2m long ×2.2m wide to 4.7m ×2.0m wide. It is important that your car fits within the bay with room to enter and exit your vehicle. Cars with a long wheelbase such as estates and SUVs may be too long or too wide. If your vehicle doesn't fit inside a space, it should be parked off site
PLEASE NOTE - The preferred changeover day for this property is Friday with weekly bookings. However, for an alternative day or shorter breaks, please contact us.

10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
This has been our first visit to Dartmouth, inspired in part by Claire Balding's TV series. We were lucky to have good weather while we were there - windy most days, but dry and bright, allowing us to do most of what we had planned. The Food Festival was an unexpected bonus, even if it made parking in the town a bit problematic, considering the apartment parking was closed due to gas works. But we managed OK in the end.
The apartment is comfortable and very well equipped - we don't eat out much at all, so to have M&S just round the corner, and more than adequate cooking facilities was just right for us.
The view from the apartment, though, is really what makes this a wonderful place to stay - there is always something going on to watch, and at nights the lights of Kingswear make a beautiful backdrop.
We visited Greenway using the Christie Belle ferry - the house is well worth a visit if you are into Agatha Christie - and we also took the cruise up river to Totnes. A walk to Dartmouth Castle, watching the steam trains in Kingswear, and a ferry+bus trip to Brixham (with huge fish and chip lunch at Brixham Fish!!) made up the rest of our excursions.
A most enjoyable week. We would highly recommend the apartment, though we never did work out how to get the bathroom underfloor heating working - the instructions need a bit of clarification, I think.
If you are taking an all-electric car, as we did, be aware that there are limited charging points around the town, and are often occupied. We found the one in the Mayors Avenue car park was available more late evenings, but was only running at half power, so we were plugged in for about 6 hours!

I didn't realise how much we would enjoy watching the river view while staying at the flat. Not only that but the flat was well appointed and conveniently situated with clear instructions on how to use the appliances. As we preferred to use the front door to enter and exit the flat a second set of keys would have been handy.

We’ve just returned from a week at this lovely flat. It’s in a great location, close to pubs and restaurants, right on the river and round the corner from M&S food.
The only negative thing to note (if you’re a very light sleeper like me) is that the noise insulation from neighbouring flats isn’t good & we could hear the man in the upstairs flat snoring & getting up in the night!

This is a modern and comfortable apartment with amazing views of the river. Perfectly situated for a 5 minute walk into town. Parking space a real bonus. Would highly recommend for couples and family with older children.
