    “We had a really nice stay at Ferryside.”

    The position of the property is perfect for the steam railway and river dart / sea cruises. Ferryside is well equipped and extremely comfortable. There is lots of lovely walks in the area some along the edge of the river so flat. If you prefer there are walks up hills with breath-taking views of the river dart / harbour / sea and coast line. Dartmouth is a quick ferry ride across the river and Brixham a short drive.

The property

This modern duplex flat is located in the middle of Kingswear, Devon's lively harbour village.

Ferryside is the ideal location for those seeking a trip to this great Devonshire hotspot, as it is just a short distance from the ferry to Dartmouth and a multitude of attractions such as the steam railway, coastal walks and the River Dart.

Situated in the heart of the historic village this is a vibrant location, ideal for people watching, with the steam trains from Paignton arriving with passengers en-route for the ferries to Dartmouth and the regular 'clang' as the car ferry lowers its ramp onto the slipway nearby. At times this is a busy and bustling location but you couldn't wish for a more convenient location close to the quay and the river.

All the windows have been replaced with UPVC double glazing: ideal if it does get a bit noisy! The first of the bedrooms is on the ground level, with a king-size bed and Smart TV, as well as a dazzling bathroom with bath and shower over.

Also on the ground floor is a fully fitted utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer.

Stairs with concealed lighting lead off the hallway to a fantastic open-plan living area with a modern finish and plenty of natural light to brighten the space.Sit back and relax on the sofas and armchairs, watching your favourite shows on the 50 inch Smart TV or reflecting on your vacation so far.

The kitchen, which is equipped with a variety of gadgets and elegant units, is a delightful space to prepare meals.A patio door opens to a tiny outdoor area with a bistro table and seats, perfect for people watching.

The spacious master bedroom offers another king-size bed with TV, as well as a contemporary en-suite shower room.

Nearby, there are a variety of cafes, art galleries, stores, and boutique eateries to explore, all set on the stunning waterfront; notable restaurants include The Seahorse Restaurant and Bushell's Riverside.The 16th-century Kingswear Castle is located close by.

There are some scenic walks on the doorstep, with the property situated only a few yards from the South West Coast path.If you are feeling fit, then take the stunning coast path to the National Trust Coleton Fishacre Art Deco House and gardens, or walk alongside the river to Greenway to visit Agatha Christie's Greenway House (also National Trust) with the option of ferries back to Dartmouth or across the River to the charming Dittisham village.

Make memories together at Ferryside.

About the location

KINGSWEAR, DEVON

Dartmouth 2.4 miles; Paignton 7.6 miles

The colourful harbour village of Kingswear is set opposite Dartmouth, on the banks of the River Dart estuary in South Devon. Nestled within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this village boasts some of the most beautiful views on the south coast. Kingswear castle sits on the rocks cradling the sea, and Coleton Fishacre National Trust Property makes for a lovely day out with the family. There are plenty of shops, pubs and gentle strolls along the waterfront, a haven for families, couples and friends. You can take the passenger ferry across to Dartmouth and explore one of the most popular tourist locations in Devon. Its narrow streets are lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus there are many cycling and walking routes around the town, not forgetting the spectacular South West Coast Path. Bayards Cove Fort is a must! Situated at the entrance to Dartmouth harbour, it offers a picturesque setting, reached only by foot. Embark on a journey through beautiful countryside to Paignton on the Dartmouth Steam Railway and visit the delightful fishing harbour of Brixham, home to Britain’s largest fishing fleet. Experience and unforgettable holiday in the South Hams District.
