About this property

Port Side - River views

Port Side offers captivating river views, stylish boutique interiors, and a friendly village lifestyle. It sits in an elevated position in the pretty village of Kingswear, opposite Dartmouth where the river meets the English Channel. Bright and airy inside, Port Side comfortably sleeps families of five over three spacious bedrooms. This boutique-style home offers total relaxation from its convenient location for exploring the very best of one of Devon's favourite and most historic places.


Accommodation:

A flight of steps from the driveway take you up to the front door, which opens to the ground-floor hallway with the master bedroom off to the left and the 2 other bedrooms and bathroom off to the right. The en suite master bedroom has a kingsize bed. Patio doors open onto a balcony and offer outstanding views across Waterhead Creek and over the river to Dartmouth. There is a dressing area off the bedroom leading to the en suite shower room.

Down the hall, there's a cosy single bedroom where, again, large windows fill the room with light and offer river views. At the end of the hallway, there's another kingsize bedroom with ample storage, as well as a side door to access the patio garden on this level. The family bathroom is also on this floor and has a shower, toilet and basin.

The stairs from the ground floor come up to a lovely light-filled landing with big patio doors at the rear of the property; off to the right are the kitchen and dining room. To the left are the utility room and the living room. The living room is a lovely light spacious room with two comfortable sofas, an armchair, and a wall-mounted TV above the log-effect electric fire. Large sliding windows open onto a balcony and offer lovely views.

Double doors from the lounge to the dining room give a lovely open-plan feel; the dining room has a large table and chairs that comfortably seat five guests. Windows that stretch the length of the room really make the most of the view, and patio doors on the far wall that opens onto the beautiful deck bring a feeling of alfresco dining, even if it's a bit chilly. The kitchen is at the rear of the property and is very well equipped with an oven and hob, fridge freezer and dishwasher; again a patio door allows you to access the large deck. There is also a utility room on the first floor with WC, washing machine, and tumble dryer.

Outside:

The main large deck off the first floor has access from the dining room and kitchen. It's the perfect spot for taking in the view with a morning coffee or ending the day with an al fresco meal. Steps down from the deck take you to the second bedroom.

Parking:

There is parking for two cars on the driveway

Excellent views.
Lovely house in a nice location. Beautiful decor and furnished to a high standard. There were fabulous views over the river to Dartmouth Two nice pubs in the village that do food if you don't want to travel anywhere. It was great going over the river on the ferry to Dartmouth. Our only negative is the house was very cold during the afternoon when the central heating system was off.
Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023

A great birthday
We stayed for a few days over my birthday and had a lovely break. The house was just like the photos and had stunning views. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Devon. Our only feedback was the 10am checkout time felt a little early. The standard 11am time would’ve provided for a more relaxing end to our holiday.

Lovely place
This really is a gorgeous place to spend a week - but do be aware there are a lot of steps so not entirely suitable for anyone with any mobility problems.

Lovely property with gorgeous views
We loved our stay. Gorgeous setting and location. Bonus with parking which is great for this location. Would stay here again. Customer service teams were helpful and quick to respond to queries. Thanks for a great stay.

Lovely view and comfortable house
This is a lovely house with outstanding views. There is comfortable external furniture on the large terrace which has the advantage of a large parasol for shade. This would be vital in very hot weather as there is no natural shade on the terrace. A table with bench seating makes outside dining easy due to its proximity to the kitchen. Lovely comfortable sitting room. The bedrooms are downstairs and my only criticism would be the quality of the beds, particularly the double (without the en suite), where the mattress is past its best. For the price of the house the lack of a welcome pack is disappointing.
