About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Elegant, modern, spacious. 45 seconds from river, shops, cafes & restaurants.

Stylish & comfortable. Supremely convenient location. All home comforts. 45 seconds to river.

(NOTE: the lead photo on this advert is taken at Bayard's Cove which is approximately 45 seconds walk from the property.)

A perfect combination of (extremely) close proximity to the river plus exceptionally easy access direct off the street / from your car. No need to drag suitcases up/down narrow cobbled alleyways. Fabulously practical location. Being so close to the river and riverbank, the property avoids the (often significant) access and or parking problems associated with many other rental properties in town which are located halfway up (or at the top of) the steep lanes and alleyways leading down to the river Dart. Not only does this property provide very close proximity to the river (45 seconds), shops, cafes and restaurants but it also enjoys the major advantage of being located on a ‘sensible’ street by Dartmouth standards (normal / reasonably wide street unlike many others in town). Guests appreciate the convenience of stopping their car right outside the property (without obstructing other vehicles) to unload luggage, drop off passengers and shopping etc. before then parking either in a space on that same street or in the Mayor’s Avenue car park (permit for Mayor's Avenue car park is included in rental rate).

Where possible, owners try to operate a Saturday / Saturday calendar.

Exceptionally stylish, elegant & spacious one bedroom apartment only forty five seconds from river embankment. Occupying a well deserved position in the luxury accommodation category. Superb kitchen, dishwasher, WiFi, antique roll-top bath, w/machine, central heating and separate, inset gas fire. Level entrance from street to property.

Lower Heywood - one bedroom, sleeps 2

Formerly a two bedroom property, Lower Heywood has been the subject of an extensive, thoughtful and exceptionally stylish renovation project with the objective of creating an unusually spacious, premium specification, one bedroom property only seconds away from Dartmouth's river embankment, numerous shops, restaurants and cafes.

Please note, the lead photo on this advert is taken at Bayard's Cove which is approximately 45 seconds walk from the property.

Throughout the property, the close attention to detail and high standard of finish is evident as are the top specification kitchen and bathroom fittings.

- Central heating
- Spacious, modern, well equipped kitchen
- Dishwasher
- Washing machine
- Extremely spacious
- Elegant & comfortable
- Separate bath & shower
- Wifi
- Docking station for your music

The entrance hallway leads straight into an extremely light, open plan area comprising large, fully equipped modern kitchen (incorporating both dishwasher & washing machine) leading into the comfortable lounge area. In addition to radiators as part of the gas central heating, there is a separate gas fire in the lounge ensuring absolute comfort and cosiness on the coldest of winter evenings.

From the lounge, stairs lead down to the extremely spacious and comfortable bedroom and bathroom area. In addition to an antique roll-top bath there is a separate shower, W/C and sink.

Superbly convenient for all Dartmouth has to offer. Less than one minute walk to town, harbour, quaint historic taverns, restaurants & great shops. The property is less than 60 seconds from Dartmouth's historic quayside. Sugary Cove beach can be reached on foot and the award winning beaches of Blackpool Sands and Start Bay are minutes away by car.

Lower Heywood occupies a well deserved position in the luxury accommodation category and provides stylish, premium accommodation for couples searching for something a little different. Tasteful, comfortable and extremely spacious.

Comfortable cottage central to Dartmouth
Super comfortable, well equipped cottage near to all amenities in Dartmouth. The only cons were that the number of windows for opening( needing fresh air) was limited to the kitchen window; and there was a strong musty smell coming from all wall cupboards.

Good holiday but...
We had a really good time in Dartmouth and the property was very good, however we have a major grumble about rubbish disposal arrangements. Telling us to use a bin on the street is NOT acceptable, particularly when our neighbours all had recycling and other bins out on Wednesday morning and the bin lorry was coming down the road as we left the apartment. As keen recyclers and people who care about the environment this really pained us. Note to future guests - bin bags are not provided. Check-in information was not received in time and we didn't know to bring our own towels, or how to gain access to the property when we arrived. For a property that had been "refurbished to the highest standards", and was described as "luxury", it really should have provided towels as standard. The welcome email system needs tightening up.

Beautiful break in Dartmouth
We really did have such a lovely time staying in Lower Heywood , Dartmouth. It was exactly how I expected it to be after reading other reviews. It was mentioned that parking may be an issue. We had no problems at all and were able to park every evening outside the property. Beautiful presented place with everything you need for a relaxing break , you really can be on the quayside in less than a minute , just perfect views of the river. Highly recommended

Disappointing accommodation
Excellent location; however, the property is very dark, with the upstairs and downstairs accommodation having brick walls a few metres from windows, with no outlook. There is a very popular cafe a couple of doors down serving breakfasts from 0700 and the smell permeates into the rooms most of the day. The description of the property does not prepare you for the dark and oppressive feel to the apartment, in our opinion. The overall cleanliness was good; however, the living area carpet and settee/chair are tired with many stains.

The property is in an excellent location, close to the town & river. It was very clean (only found 1 corner where there was dust) and excellently equipped. Only real spoiler is back windows (which face in river direction) only face onto brick wall of building in front.

We stayed for 5 days after out wedding, the location was fantastic and meant we could just wonder in and out of town and didn't have to drive anywhere if we didn't want to. The perfect base to explore Dartmouth and the local area and well equipped so we could relax in comfort too. Thoroughly recommend

Perfect location and very comfortable
After a considerable amount of difficulty finding Heywood and after a call to the owner we were very pleased with our accommodation It was well equipped and comfortable and just five minutes walk to town The fridge is very wet and drippy due to a problem with the freezer compartment (which we didn’t use) but apart from this the kitchen area has everything you need The lounge area and bedroom are very cozy and the shower is excellent Definitely would recommend Heywood and really enjoyed our stay Thank you
