LOCATION
Situated on the banks of one of the most beautiful estuaries in the British Isles, Dartmouth is one of Devon’s most beloved waterfront towns and home to Britannia Royal Naval College. Combining maritime heritage and quintessential chocolate box charm, this bustling harbour town is a picturesque mix of historic buildings, cafés, pubs, restaurants and boutique galleries and shops. Dartmouth’s calendar is alive with events, including the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, Food Festival, Music Festival, Book Festival and Gallery week. Dartmouth is home to two supermarkets, an M&S Food Hall, leisure centre, a library, a cinema, both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a health and wellbeing centre, two primary schools and a secondary school, whilst across the river is Churston Ferrers Grammar School. Dartmouth lies within the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, an area famous for its stunning coastline with sandy beaches and hidden coves. The South West Coast Path follows the coastline around the town and offers access to miles of scenic walking. The mainline train station at Totnes runs a regular service to London in 2 hrs 40 mins, and the A38 (M5) is about 13 miles.
