2 Fairfax Place is a stylishly modernised apartment in one of Dartmouth’s most-characterful buildings. Sympathetically renovated to showcase its historic charms, there’s also smart-home technology to control everything from the heating to entertainment. The partially stained-glass ceiling-height windows bathe the rooms in light and reflect the unique façade of this imposing, listed Victorian building. Great for romantic getaways, ideal for families and friends. A parking permit is provided.

Perfect central location, would come again

The pictures are just as you would expect to find, a fantastic apartment in the heart of Dartmouth with everything in walking distance.

The kitchen in particular is a lovely social space with the facilities all really well maintained.

Great communication from the Dart Valley Team, easy to find and use everything and the permit such a bonus, especially as it is getting very busy into holiday season.

The only slight niggle was pillows were all quite hard / high which wasn't the most comfortable, especially for our young daughter, but it's all personal preference on a pillow! The sofa is really comfy but could be done with securing into place as the long end side always pops away when you sit on it.

Minor issues and wouldn't hesitate to come back.

We stayed at Fairfax Place for New Year (3 nights). We enjoyed our stay in this central Dartmouth apartment, well decorated and in the main well equipped.

Guest should be aware that there are 30 stairs up to the apartment, something that should be mentioned in the description.
The heating was off when we arrived. Whilst the heat easy to operate the apartment had obviously been empty before our stay so condensation was an issue on all of the windows for the whole of our stay. Non of the windows open, & therefore we had no view.
Kitchen very well equipped with appliances but only very basic general cooking kit - for example 1 teaspoon, 1 blunt knife, no teapot, scissors etc.



Right in the middle of dartmouth

The flat was well located for exploring Dartmouth and the nearby area. Parking was no problem either.

The flat had everything you’d need for a great stay, loads of space in the kitchen and a comfy living room.





Great location in central Dartmouth

We had a lovely stay over bank holiday weekend at Fairfax Place, we know Dartmouth well and we loved the central location of the property. The apartment is clean and well equipped and very comfortable. There are a number of steps up to the apartment, which we knew about, but would not be suitable for people with mobility issues. Highly recommended.

We loved staying in Fairfax Place. The location was perfect for a car free weekend and the apartment beautifully furnished. Light and airy the property of was very spacious but cosy at the same time. We will definitely be returning.



A wonderful stay in a beautiful apartment

Looks great on paper.
Contacted agents re issues with apartment, stained sofa, broken chairs, damage to kitchen plinths and mould in toilet. Some of these were addressed. However the cleaning fluids they used left the sofa smelling of urine, totally unusable. Not a relaxing holiday sadly, not worth the price we pain as ended up sitting on kitchen bar stools for 5 days!!

Beautiful apartment with so much character and very spacious. Furnishings are stunning. Very homely. Great rain shower. Only down side is the windows can’t be opened and it gets very hot inside!



Comfortable flat in Dartmouth town centre.

Access to the flat is via five short flights of stairs which may be a problem for people with health/mobility problems, particularly carrying luggage up to the flat. This is not mentioned at all on the website accommodation details? The building is currently surrounded by scaffolding which is visible through all the windows. Again, no mention of this on the website, although I appreciate this may be temporary. The underfloor heating in the lounge was not switched on when we arrived, we had some initial difficulties trying to get it operational . We contacted the DVC helpline, everyone was very helpful, unfortunately being Christmas nobody was available to physically help out . Eventually, we managed to get the heating working by going to the makers website. I think the underfloor heating could have been switched on prior to our arrival, perhaps that would have saved everyone's time. These are all observations and not meant to be critical of the general accommodation which was fine.

Stayed for 6 nights, apartment very clean and tidy but could probably use a freshen up in places. Everything we needed for a short break, location brilliant in the centre of Dartmouth so walking distance to shops, bars, restaurants etc.

Car parking only a short walk away as well so no problem if travelling out for the day.



Lovely flat in the centre of beautiful Dartmouth

Had a fantastic week in Fairfax Place. The location is perfect, right in the centre of the town, and the flat is clean and very well-equipped (apart from a couple of extra kitchen items which would have been handy). It's a second floor flat, so there are stairs to get to it, but nothing too severe. The parking pass is very useful, as it can also be used in other towns in the area, The only minor issue was the wifi which was a bit hit and miss (even sitting next to the router we were struggling for a connection at one point), but that didn't detract from a really wonderful holiday. Would happily recommend to others and hope to stay again.
