"Beautifully fitted out cottage, very nice welcome pack, excellent views from verandah, lovely bathroom, very nice and warm, comfy beds." Margaret Atkinson
"The quality and standard of the property was exemplary. The views from the main room were stunning I will have no hesitation in using Blue Chip to book my next holiday" Mr Rose, December 08
"The house was very clean and relaxing. The views were amazing, and the welcome pack was a bonus to an excellent week. Thankyou Blue Chip!" Ross, Jan 09
"We thought the house was wonderful - both the decor and the view. It was particularly nice to be able to still appreciate the view while sitting inside the house when it was too wet/windy to sit on the balcony. We will probably go back for another visit...and would be more than happy to live there!" J Readings, May 09
"The property was extremely comfortable, with excellent views and stylishly furnished to a high standard. The kitchen was well-appointed, which we were extremely pleased to see, as we enjoy cooking while away. Many thanks. "" Mrs Barnett, May 2010

Full Property Description

Woodbine House is a traditional 2 bedroom house which lies a short way up Wood Lane in Kingswear and overlooks the River Dart from almost every room.  A full width balcony which enjoys the afternoon and evening sun is accessed by French doors from both the living and dining areas, and provides breathtaking panoramic views.  Stylishly furnished, it has been awarded the prestigious ‘four star gold’ award by Visit Britain.  Situated in a peaceful setting the house is just a short walk from the ferries across the river to lively Dartmouth, and the marina car park where a parking space is provided.

From the delightful setting of Kingswear alongside the River Dart, guests are perfectly located to explore and discover the natural delights of this area. Take a ride on the Dartmouth Steam Railway winding along the banks of the river and then along the Paignton coastline or relax on board a boat trip up to Dartmouth offering spectacular rural views and an array of wildlife en route. For those of a more active nature join the South West Coastal Path as it undulates and winds its way to Brixham, challenging but ultimately rewarding with unrivalled coastal views. Along the way stop off at Coleton Fishacre, owned by the National Trust and the former residence of the D’Oyly Carte family and home to a 30 acre garden.

Across the river from Kingswear is the historic naval town of Dartmouth. Easily accessible by the regular foot or car ferry and a great reason to stroll through the narrow lanes and discover the array of galleries showcasing local art. The Britannia Naval College can also be visited on certain days along with the remains of Dartmouth Castle, at the mouth of the River Dart.
