UK Holiday Cottages

New Property - September 2013

Balmoral House is a very stylishly furnished and beautifully presented Grade II listed apartment, extensively refurbished and newly equipped in late 2013. The two-storey accommodation has delightful views across the River Dart and is within just a short walk of the town - it is therefore a perfect retreat for one/two couples or family groups looking for a luxury holiday home in this popular and historic area of Dartmouth.

LOCATION Above Town is a narrow lane (steep in places) that runs 'above' and parallel to the River Dart.  Steps lead down from Above Town to Dartmouth's array of trendy boutiques, restaurants and tea rooms, whilst the River Dart itself is just 5-10 minutes walk away.  Blackpool Sands beach is a 5-10 minute drive whilst Woodlands Theme Park is just 3 miles outside of Dartmouth.

VIEWS Good river views from the sitting room and both en suite bedrooms.

ENTRANCE The front door leads into an entrance hall, which offers direct access to the dining room.

DINING ROOM This tastefully furnished room with attractive Karndean flooring has a solid wooden table seating six, Roberts DAB radio (with docking station) and Krups coffee machine. 

KITCHEN The modern, well-equipped kitchen has a range of wooden units, granite worktops, Rangemaster cooker with five-ring gas burner, integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher, and microwave.  An outside utility shed houses a washing machine and tumble dryer.

SITTING ROOM To the front of the property, and with lovely river views, is a delightful sitting room, elegantly furnished with two large sofas, footstool, coffee table, flatscreen TV with Sky, and DVD player. There is also an attractive period fireplace with marble surround and coal-effect gas fire.

EN SUITE BEDROOMS Two, both on the first floor.  The lovely master bedroom has outstanding river views, wrought-iron framed double bed, matching bedside units, wardrobe and dressing table, and wall-mounted television.  The en suite has a walk-in cubicle with rain head and hand-held showers, w.c., wash-hand basin, heated towel rail and tiled flooring. The second bedroom - also with sea and river views - has two single beds (which can be zipped together on request to create a 6' double), matching bedside units, wardrobe and drawers, and flatscreen television. The en suite has a shower cubicle, w.c., wash-hand basin, heated towel rail and laminate flooring.  N.B.  All duvets, pillows, bed linen and towels (excluding those for the beach) are provided.

BABY FRIENDLY EQUIPMENT A high-chair, travel cot and stair-gate are available on request.
