Waterfront House

What a treat this place is!!! We checked in for one night in March 2025. Received a call from the proprietor asking what time we would be checking in, and we were able to get the key and drop our bags off prior to check-in at 2pm, which was dead helpful. The whole place is very tastefully decorated and our room, (The Terrace), was really gorgeous. The owner had kindly put our bags in the room. We had a cup of tea and two of the four home-baked cookies which were a delight. There is also a Nespresso machine with plenty of supplied capsules to keep the most ardent coffee drinker happy. The bed was extremely comfy and we both slept well. The bathroom is well-appointed albeit quite a squeeze in this particular room. The shower was really good but I do have a minor gripe about the shower door - it was quite awkward to shut properly - resulting in my partner flooding the floor and mopping up with towels. I was then aware but still didn't find it the easiest thing to manouevre! My other tiny teeny observation would be about the mat on the floor by the tea and coffee facilities. I guess it's there to absorb spillages which I applaud, I would just say get a nicer mat!! The curly grey floor mat didn't do justice to the rest of the delightful room! Breakfast in the morning was exceptional, plenty of choice and fabulous fresh, local produce. (The sausage was amongst the best I've every had). Parking nearby could be a bit of an issue, but it's not a chore to walk along the promenade from the car park!! Jon and Julie were very friendly and I would really highly recommend a visit - you will not be disappointed!!!

Just returned home after a great weekend in Dartmouth staying in Estuary room at Waterfront House. It is a lovely place to stay, with stylish decoration, comfortable bedroom, first class breakfast and lovely views across the Dart. This will be our first choice of accommodation when visiting Dartmouth again. Thanks Jon and Julie for your hospitality

This venue was exceptional. Friendly and professional hosts , excellently presented, tastefully decorated , accommodation high standard. Bed very comfortable and slept well. Breakfast is superb with good choice and quality. With directly overlooking the harbour and and scenic views , perfect location for touring Devon

This was a return visit to Waterfront House and John and Julie think about every detail, from homemade cookies on the tea tray to one of the best breakfasts we have had in a hotel( and we travel a lot) - the poached autumn fruits with natural yogurt was yummy and the locally sourced produce for the cooked breakfast is top quality. We stayed in the estuary room- stunning views of the water with cosy armchairs in the bay window! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! We look forward to coming back again.

Booked very last minute and what a brilliant find, we stayed in the Harbour room and view was fantastic, beautiful property throughout and room was fabulous, super comfy bed and breakfast was delicious, wouldn’t hesitate to come here again as we only stayed for one night but wished it was for longer, hosts are fantastic and make you feel very welcome

What can I say! It is very clear why they were awarded the best B&B in Devon. Julie & Jon are such a lovely couple, very helpful and personable, the place is spotless, beautifully decorated with attention to detail throughout and lovely personal touches. Delicious breakfast choices, would highly recommend, we will definitely be back.
