This is a lovely house with outstanding views. There is comfortable external furniture on the large terrace which has the advantage of a large parasol for shade. This would be vital in very hot weather as there is no natural shade on the terrace. A table with bench seating makes outside dining easy due to its proximity to the kitchen. Lovely comfortable sitting room. The bedrooms are downstairs and my only criticism would be the quality of the beds, particularly the double (without the en suite), where the mattress is past its best. For the price of the house the lack of a welcome pack is disappointing.

We enjoyed our stay at Port Side. The house is light and airy, spacious with fabulous views. Lovely balcony off the kitchen, a great place to relax when the sun came out. Lots of steps up to the front door and a good walk to the quayside so wouldn't suit anyone with mobility issues. Well equipped house, Dart Valley resolved a hot water issue very quickly (thank you).

Spacious, comfortable, quiet and amazing views. Would stay again if going to Dartmouth.

Great stay .. easy walk to ferry/steam train .. beautiful scenery/ view out of most windows .. definitely return!!

My husband, brother in law and 2 sisters in law enjoyed a lovely stay in Kingswear at Portside. We think Kingswear is the best side of the river to stay as it offers wonderful views of the river and Dartmouth, and enjoys the afternoon and evening sunshine. We’ll be back.

Spacious house that was very clean and well-appointed with lovely views from the large terrace as well as the balconies. Really enjoyed our stay very much indeed and would not hesitate to come again. Slight negatives - (1) there were a few items that we would have expected in the kitchen as basic consumables present in most holiday lets that were missing - kitchen roll, salt, pepper, oil, coffee, sugar and tea, (2) the terrace and balcony doors upstairs were incredibly difficult to open/close/lock - to the point that we really didn’t think we were going to get them secured on some occasions, (3) parasol on terrace was amazing and essential in sunny weather but even when there was hardly any breeze it simply blew over because it was so top-heavy and the bottom weights were not sufficient… I fixed the issue by securing to balcony rails with string to give a second (higher) tether point otherwise staying there in a heatwave we would not have been able to sit out and enjoy the main point of the property - the view - at all and that really would have been a negative. None of these are serious in any way but they did niggle at little although nothing here that would stop us returning or recommending warmly to others.

great place to stay and great location . The views over towards Dartmouth are superb and it is ideally placed to walk down to the ferry to go across to Dartmouth itself or alternatively to drive slightly further afield to some great places like Salcombe. The property is fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay - we particularly liked the upper terrace which had the sun all day. We would love to come back and visit again! (Just a minor point -the bedrooms could ideally do with blackout curtains (or something else), for if you are a light sleeper the light will come flowing in at dawn).

Excellent stay in Portside. Fantastic views from many of the rooms and comfortable beds. Well equipped. If your car is on the long side you probably won’t be able to fit a second one on the drive (but there’s always the Marina carpark very close by). Ferry just a short stroll away. We hope to return to Portside.

Very clean and well furnished property. Lovely views over the river dart Parking for two cars a bonus.

Excellent accommodation in ideal location for all local walks and access to Dartmouth via Lower Ferry. Upper terrace provides excellent view of river activity and Dartmouth town perfect for late afternoon drinks.

Had a lovely fortnight at Port Side. Visited the South Hams several times and never stayed on this side of the River before. It was an easy walk to the passenger ferry for Dartmouth. Wonderful views of Dartmouth. The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable.

A stunning property and very well located the views are absolutely beautiful. We were very fortunate to spend some very very hot days there however it would have been more comfortable had there been some shade in the form of an umbrella on the patios. Very enjoyable stay.

Stunning cottage in a great spot in Kingswear. Beautifully decorated and furnished. Very well equipped. Great views of the river and steam train. We will definitely be coming back.

Port Side gives you everything you need for a great holiday. It is in a great location and the views are absolutely stunning. You could sit on the upstairs deck all day long and never get bored with the coming and goings on the river Dart. The house itself has everything you need and more, full of thoughtful little touches like blankets for outside when it cools down in the evenings. The standard of cleanliness was excellent, which was reassuring in these difficult times and the standard of furnishings was very good and comfortable too. This was our first time in the Dartmouth area and we really enjoyed our week here, made all the more special because of the fabulous Port Side

The spacious house with stunning views of the river Dart was everything as promised. We had a marvellous holiday with amazing weather. Two things need attention in my opinion - a new mattress for the master bedroom [ very uncomfortable bed] and a parasol for the patio.
