Marina Lodge has everything you need for a wonderful break away, we have been staying here for over 20 years and this visit didn't disappoint. We loved the refresh the owners have done with everything being recently decorated. The views from both balconies are just brilliant - we were even lucky enough to watch a firework display from the Naval ColRead morelege across the water! The house is well equipped with all you need to self cater. The village itself has 2 pubs, caf, post office and shop there are also some great walks. Access across the water is easy with 2 ferry options, we used the lower car ferry where you can purchase a travel card and top up as needed. We had a couple of great meals at The Steam Packet which is just along from the house. Can't wait to return! Hide

Marina Lodge had everything we could wish for. The location in the village is great, it was easy to get to the local shops, pubs and ferry. The cottage was better than the photos as it has been recently decorated throughout, beds were big and comfortable and the views were amazing. The only down side was there is no parking so need to use the carRead more park. We would definitely stay again. Hide

Overall a good place to stay near Dartmouth, ideal for the ferry and links to the wider area. Two great pubs, Marina and steam train nearby. Place was clean, 3 Decent size rooms and well equipped. Letting agents very good. Few negatives: Balconies needed a good varnish, new furniture and balcony glass cleaned, good feature for amazing viewRead mores but didn't feel i could use it. Shame really. Parking is very limited, but marina car park 10 for 24 hours and a 5 minute walk away. 2 keys would of been useful. Be careful with the lower Balcony, goes onto a flat roof with a 40 foot drop off. There are gaps in the balcony sides and below the glass for a small dog to escape, our chihuahua ended up stuck in the guttering and needed rescuing, just be cautious with small dogs and children. Enjoyed my two weeks here that's the main thing. Hide

Thank you for the wonderful stay at your holiday home. We truly enjoyed our time there. However, we noticed that the heating wasn't as effective as we had hoped. Perhaps it could be looked into for future guests' comfort. Despite the cold weather, we still had a pleasant stay. Overall, it was a lovely experience. Thank you again for hosting us!
