“We had an amazing stay here.”

It was much better than we hoped. They have updated the decor and furniture in most rooms to a high standard. It was home from home for us and they had everything we needed to make it an enjoyable and relaxing experience. I highly recommend staying here.

The house is within easy reach of the town and the allocated parking space a stones throw away and even with a second car we managed to find street parking not too far away. We also received several little welcome packages including a delicious cream tea which we all thoroughly enjoyed. Thankyou!

- Sarah, October 2024

“Lovely, comfortable, well-equipped cottage - one of the best we’ve stayed at.”

Perfectly situated to make the most of Dartmouth and the surrounding area. Would love to return.

Marion July 2024

“Lovely house.”

To be very picky, please supply a better fish slice. Plastic just doesn’t work. Also there is a washing machine, however nowhere to hang the washing. I looked everywhere for a clothes horse or something similar.

- Marion, July 2024

Thank you for your feedback and glad you loved the house. We want it to be perfect so love your suggestions. I have order a new fish slice and regarding washing there is a line you can pull out on the wall in the utility but I have just ordered a drying rack as this might be easier. Hope you come again Property Owner
David June 2024

“This was our second year at Baytree Cottage & it was again a fabulous place to have our two week holiday with our little fur baby Stanley.”

It has a home from home feel that we love & everything is thoughtful & welcoming from flowers, fresh milk & Strawberry Tea awaiting us on arrival. We have had holidays in Dartmouth for the last 6 years and Baytree Cottage is by far the best accomodation we have been lucky to stay in. We would recommend it to all & we will be booking our holiday stay for 2025 very soon.

- David, June 2024

Thank you for returning and your feedback. We are so happy you feel at home. We try to improve things every year so hope you will be back next year. Property Owner

- Karen, June 2024

Victoria May 2024

“The house was lovely, it really was a home from home.”

It was so well equipped, it was so helpful to have cleaning products and washing products available to use. We also found it great to have a highchair, travel cot and camp bed which meant we didn’t need to overload the car as the house had everything. The personal touches of welcome scones on arrival were lovely too.

- Victoria, May 2024

Glad you enjoyed your stay and thank you for the feedback. After years of staying in holiday homes we learnt what was important to make things easier with family’s . Please come back and stay again. Property Owner
Frederick April 2024

“The property was absolutely perfect, everything you could want.”

A short walk into lovely Dartmouth but a rather steep one on the way back. We would certainly recommend.

- Frederick, April 2024

Thank you for your feedback. Glad you enjoyed your stay. We now have a new parking space just a few minutes from the house so if you don’t fancy the walk back you do now have an alternative to drive Property Owner
Karen March 2024

“Bay Tree Cottage is absolutely beautiful.”

It was furnished to an exceptional level & so well equipped & clean. The bed was so comfortable, slept really well & the kitchen was fabulous with all you needed & more, the owners have thought of everything. Really spacious, light and airy. We were an unexpected late arrival & were accommodated last minute which we really appreciate & they still took the trouble to deliver a cream tea to us too. Thank you for a great holiday & we will be back in June.

- Karen, March 2024

Thank you so much for the lovely feedback. So glad we could accommodate you. So pleased you love the house. We do too! When you come back in June we will have a dedicated parking space just 2 mins walk from the house! Property Owner
Elizabeth March 2024

“Lovely stay in this delightful holiday cottage.”

The owners have gone above and beyond in providing everything you might need. We really appreciated the extra touches… fresh flowers, cream tea and dog treats. The beds were comfy and beautifully laundered towels added to the luxury feel. We didn’t find the steps to the property a problem although this could be mentioned on the information for more elderly guests.

- Elizabeth, March 2024

Glad you enjoyed your stay in Bay Tree Cottage and appreciated the little extras. Hope you come back and stay with us again. Property Owner
David January 2024

Helen October 2023

“We loved the house and location.”

The improvements to the kitchen and master bedroom were a lovely bonus! We would definitely recommend Bay Tree House and Dartmouth to anyone looking for a beautiful and relaxing coastal break.

- Helen, October 2023

Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and had a relaxing time. Thanks. Please come back and stay again. Property Owner
Steve September 2023

“Hi - The property was fantastic!”

Extremely clean, comfortable and well equipped, when we got there the house was better than the pictures showed - new kitchen was amazing. A small piece of feedback would be to have another frying pan / some additional saucepans, as because the kitchen was so nice we took the opportunity of getting the fresh fish from Brixham and cooking more than we usually would on holiday. Outside space is great and the shower pressure brilliant. Would highly recommend. In addition to the above it is worth noting that the staff at Coast & Country Dartmouth went above and beyond to look after us during our stay, a local service I have not had before however will look for in future booking.

- Steve, September 2023

Thank you for your feedback and so pleased you enjoyed your stay. I will get some additional saucepans and frying pan. So if you come again you can enjoy our new kitchen even more! Property Owner
Jennifer August 2023

“This was our second hearing running we have stayed at this lovely property with family, including our dog.”

The property is very comfortable, very well equipped and we really liked the new kitchen. There is plenty of space for a family of six and the fact that it accommodates pets is a bonus. We made use of the new decking and seating and outside lighting. We would thoroughly recommend this property.

- Jennifer, August 2023

Thank you so much for coming back to stay at our house. Glad you liked the new kitchen and the decking. We will continue to make improvements so please come and stay again! Property Owner
Rosanna July 2023

“Fantastic property which is perfectly located and is thoughtfully stocked with toiletries and scones!”

- Rosanna, July 2023

Thank you for your positive feedback. So glad you enjoyed the house. Property Owner
Brett June 2023

“This is a fabulous Cottage - everything we could have hoped for and more!”

!! Incredibly well presented, comfortable and welcoming - with cupboards full of 'essentials' in case we'd forgotten anything, a gorgeous vase of fresh flowers and scrumptuous scones, jam and cream on arrival!! There is a fabulous, huge Super King bed in the gorgeous 'Master Bedroom' with views over the Dartmouth hillsides!! The courtyard was perfect in the sunshine in the early evenings and the sitting room with it's large soft sofa was brilliant after the sun went down!! Parking was really easy in the town centre car park (unloading on the footpath when we arrived - no problem at all). The walk up the hill wasn't very far or too steep - it did us good after all the food we'd eaten!! This was a wonderful holiday in a super place - we are really grateful for all the time and thought that has obviously gone into making Bay Tree Cottage so perfect - thank you so, so much!! Jill and Brett xx

- Brett, June 2023

Dear Jill & Brett Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and for noticing and appreciating the effort that has gone in to making Bay Tree Cottage as comfortable as possible. We will continue to make improvements so I hope you come back to see them . Property Owner
David June 2023

“Fantastic stay!”

... Great comfort, amazing cleanliness and excellent interiors, one the best accommodations in Dartmouth. Facilities are second to none with everything you can imagine catered for stay inc' cream tea & fresh flowers on arrival with a well stocked kitchen larder. Our pet was made welcome with treats/biscuits & water bowls etc, We have already booked a 2 week stay for next year as it's like home from home. Photos on website don't do it justice as it now has an amzing kitchen and outdoor space.

- David, June 2023

Thank you for your feedback and also for re booking for next year for 2 weeks. We will make sure there are a few extra treats to make your holiday feel even more a home from home. Property Owner
Julie May 2023

“What a gem of a property!”

A pleasant 5 minute walk into Dartmouth Town Centre, the property comes with a parking permit in the main square car park (5 mins away). Everything has been thought about in the property. Ample supply of tea, coffee, washing machine and dishwasher pods. Fresh flowers and a cream tea delivered on our first evening! I've stayed in many holiday cottages and they leave 1 bin bag and 1 dishwasher tablet whereas the Bay Tree Cottage is generous in everything! Comfort is at the very heart of the property. Honestly, there isn't a single thing I could suggest to make this place better. Great outdoor seating area, beautifully decorated and furnished throughout. We enjoyed our time there so much that we intend to book a 2nd trip in September! The road is on an incline, but this didn't detract our experience at all. We love Dartmouth and to now have the Bay Tree Cottage as our go to, is a win-win!

- Julie, May 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely review. So glad you enjoyed Bay Tree and appreciated the effort we put in to it. Thrilled you have booked to come back. I hope to make some more improvements over the winter to ensure the house stays in top condition. Property Owner
Paul March 2023

“We all arrived very late on the first day so it was lovely to walk into a warm welcoming house including the delivery package of scones, cream and jam - very thoughtful.”

Extra supplies of toiletries in the main bathroom were also a nice touch. The house is delightfully furnished and catered for our needs perfectly. The parking permit was such a help and the access to the town centre very easy. The pictures on the website does not do the house justice as there have been upgrades plus a new kitchen. We would definitely stay here again without a doubt. Thank you!

- Paul, March 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback. You are right to point out we need to update our photos on the website. I will get on to that ! Property Owner
Maggie September 2022

“Lovely property- perfectly placed & lots of extras.”

Fitted our family of five adults & a dog for a weekend to celebrate a birthday. Close to all the amenities - great base to explore Greenway, Agatha Christie’s house.

- Maggie, September 2022
John June 2022

“We really enjoyed our holiday at Bay Tree Cottage.”

The house is in a good location and was very comfortable with everything that we could possibly have needed. The "welcome pack" was very thoughtful and much appreciated. Thank you. The owners might like to partially frosted glaze the bathroom window and add egg cups to the inventory. Coast and Country Cottages were very prompt in sending a friendly and competent plumber to adjust the heating in the house.

- John, June 2022

Thank you for your feedback. Noted your suggestion about the bathroom window and will look into getting that done. Great idea Property Owner
Melanie May 2022

“We had a wonderful stay at BayTree Cottage.”

The property is spacious and well equipped. The flowers and cream tea on our arrival were lovely touches. The property is situated a short walk from the main area but is on an incline and has steps up to the house, which those with mobility issues may struggle with. The front patio area is pleasant and has a nice dining area. There is plenty to do and see in and around Dartmouth.

- Melanie, May 2022

Thank you for your positive feedback. This spring we improved the outside area and so it’s even more pleasant now for dining. Property Owner
Joan April 2022

“A very comfortable and well equipt house.”

The beds in particular were very comfortable and this really helped to make our week a very relaxing time. The cream tea provided on arrival was very much appreciated along with supplies of other essentials. Our dog also sends his grateful thanks for the doggy treats.

- Joan, April 2022

Thank you for your feedback and so pleased to hear you had a relaxing week. We have tried to make sure the house is as comfortable as possible and you have everything you need. We hope you come again Property Owner
Christine April 2022

“Bay Tree cottage is a large spacious property, however being an elderly couple we did find it hard with steps leading up to the property carrying luggage etc.”

We felt a hand rail would be safe and practical in this situation.

- Christine, April 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We have only recently bought the property and so feedback on improvements we can make are helpful. We think a handrail is a great suggestion and will look into getting one fitted. Property Owner
Holly April 2022

“Great property, really comfortable and had everything you needed.”

Would certainly stay again.

- Holly, April 2022

Thank you so much for your feedback. It’s our first year owning the property and we are trying to make sure guests have all they need to feel really at home. So great to hear you will come back. Property Owner
Lisa March 2022

“We really enjoyed our stay at Bay Tree Cottage.”

It really felt like home. Pretty much everything you need is included, tea, coffee, washing pods etc. A vase of fresh flowers too. At the property there is a folder full of useful information including places to eat & local walks which we took advantage of. A cream tea was provided for us on arrival which was a lovely touch!

- Lisa, March 2022
Sarah February 2022

Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.
