Dartmouth

With its narrow streets and half-timbered houses, the historic town of Dartmouth is situated on the River Dart, opposite the village of Kingswear. A haven for yachtsmen and visiting tourists alike, the town offers a variety of fine restaurants, cafes, galleries, marinas and antique shops.

With a strong maritime and naval heritage Dartmouth holds many events throughout the year including the annual Royal Regatta. Overlooking this deep natural harbour you will also find the 600-year-old Dartmouth Castle.

Accessible by car, ferry, coastal footpath and, most spectacularly the Steam Railway, Dartmouth is a lovely place to spend the day. Relax in the cafés, browse the boutiques, try a spot of crabbing or take to the water and head out on a boat trip.
