Quay Cottage
Stroll along the quay in the ever popular village of Dittisham and you’ll come across Quay Cottage - the blue one! This double fronted, super quaint cottage sits in the most stunning location imaginable: Right on the estuary with uninterrupted views across the River Dart to Greenway and beyond. This gem of a cottage is your perfect escape to kick back, unwind and take your foot off the gas. The Quay in Dittisham has it’s own unique vibe and is a favourite jaunt for boaters, paddle boarders and crab catchers of all ages. Take your morning cuppa out at the front of Quay Cottage to sit and watch the comings and goings around the pontoon. You’re also just 50 steps from the Ferry Boat Inn and highly acclaimed Anchorstone cafe.Inside, the cottage boasts characterful exposed beams, a cozy wood burner and can sleep up to eight guests. With two double bedrooms, a three-bed bunk room, and a separate single bedroom with a pull out trundle, there's room for the whole family. And let's not forget the outdoor entertainment space on the decking, complete with panoramic views of the estuary. Stylishly renovated with nautical touches abound, you’ll soon settle in to the unhurried pace of life.

Great place to stay, right on the water. Pub on the corner. River ferry to Dartmouth just outside the house.
