Large family home with River Views
Rocket House is a stunning, spacious, light-filled home in beautiful Dittisham. Ideal for big families, up to ten can enjoy a self-catering break. There's a large open-plan living space and four bathrooms, parking for three cars, great river views and extensive outdoor areas – perfect for family meals and post-beach barbecues. Take a short stroll to the quay to enjoy the ambience of the Anchorstone Café or Ferry Boat Inn, go crabbing on the pontoon, or hop on a boat to explore the Dart Valley.
