Riverview is a superb family holiday home situated within tranquil Dittisham Court – just a short stroll to the village and riverside. Sleeping up to six guests in three bedrooms, Riverview also benefits from its own private, grassy garden and allocated parking. From the open-plan kitchen and living area, the French doors open onto a private balcony with sublime views of the river and distant Dartmoor – also seen from the master bedroom, too. We’re sorry, but pets are not allowed at Riverview.

Excellent and would highly recommend

Riverview perfect for family holidays. Top floor bedroom and bathroom for grandparents, ground floor bedrooms and bathroom for the rest of the family, ideal! Super place for younger children with lots of outdoor space and fields to let off steam. Crabbing down at the Quay keeps children amused for hours while parents, etc enjoy a leisurely pint or glass of wine from the riverside pub. Plenty of places to visit, Dartmouth within easy reach both by road and water! Dittisham is a delightful village, peaceful and quiet.

We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again. Dittisham Court is brilliant as there are parking spaces which visitors to Dittisham will be aware are difficult to find.



Great location.

Riverview is a nice property in a great location with beautiful views of the River Dart with the added bonus of parking. For anyone who knows Dittisham this is a big plus.
It's also very reasonably priced for the area.
There were a few maintenance issues when we stayed though and the main bathroom could do with some attention which is a shame as we would definitely have stayed here again otherwise.

Our 3rd visit to Riverview, and 12th to Dittisham. House has everything you need. Lovely views, and peace. Lots to do locally in Dartmouth and surrounding countryside. Great restaurants within walking distance - just know your tides. Can't recommend highly enough. Accommodation on 3 flours, so room to spread out.

It was great to return to Dittisham - we love the village. It was great to spend time on the river again and to eat at the Ferryboat Inn. This was our first stay in Riverview - great views from upstairs and always a bonus to have private parking in the village. Our daughter loved having her own floor downstairs. Everything was well maintained and comfortable for our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed a very chilled week.

Excellent accommodation in peaceful and beautiful Dittisham. Perfect for crabbing and a short drive to Blackpool Sands. A visit to Dartmouth/Salcombe and Agatha Christie's home (Greenway) just across the river by ferry, a must.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Riverview. The cottage had beautiful views of the River Dart from both the main living area and the top floor bedroom and was very well situated to make the most of the pretty village of Dittisham. The grounds surrounding the property were enjoyed by our one year old grandson and were easily accessible from the back garden. The property was very comfortable and well equipped and had been cleaned to a high standard. The owner had left a bottle of prosecco in the fridge alongside fresh milk and a box of chocolates, which we fully appreciated. We will definitely be going back.

Beautiful cottage and well looked after by the owner. Lovely surprise to have a bunch of local flowers and a bottle of bubbly on arrival.
Lovely views and a treat to sit and enjoy the a glass looking over the Dart river. Enjoyed every minute.

I have used Dart Valley on three occasions previously and will do so again.
Thank you all

Riverview is in a very pleasant and quiet location. We particularly enjoyed the garden with the deck chairs and would have used the barbeque if the weather had been slightly better. The cottage is very well equipped - we appreciated the stairgate with a toddler- and it felt more like a home from home than a holiday let.



River view cottage dittisham was in a great location and good access to everything on offer around .

The photo on the Web page doesn't do this house justice, the veiw from the bedroom at the top of the house is fantastic upriver along the Dart really stunning, in the mid summer evenings sunsets were great. The accommodation is really well equipped and comfortable. A very peaceful location, if you have young children a short walk (possibly half a mile) is the Ham, this also has great views of the Dart. I would definitely return as we liked it so much.

A beautiful setting in a peaceful village. This property has all you would need for a lovely holiday. The area is stunning and the pubs and cafe in the village were great. However, it sleeps seven and we stayed only as a two. The living room space was fine for us but a party of seven will not as been as comfortable even if children were in the party . Our bed was very comfortable, the linen was beautiful. Cleanliness wise it was OK but felt it needed a deeper clean ie corners in the bathrooms and sides of furniture were dusty.
The lack of welcome pack was a slight downer when we arrived. We have stayed in numerous holiday homes and this is the first one ever where not even a welcome pint of milk was left. It's not about the goods, it's the feeling of greeting and welcome that we missed.
Thanks
Trudy Webster

Enjoyed our stay in this spacious cottage with plenty of flexible sleeping space. 4 of us and a 1 year old. Large, bright and airy living area and the unexpected stair gate was a real bonus that we were not expecting but would have been difficult to manage without. It might be good to add something similar on the steps down from the balcony. It was nice to have a garden and the surrounding accessible land was lovely, especially the orchard. Kitchen had everything we needed and beds were very comfortable. Beautiful area to explore, very nice lunches at Sharpham Vineyard and The River Shack at Stoke Gabriel was a pleasant experience with great staff.



My favourite place to stay.

This was my fourth stay at Riverview. It is ideally situated for glorious walks and visiting attractions. Riverview itself is fully equipped with everything you could want making it an excellent cottage, and lovely to come back to after an energetic day walking the many beautiful paths. Lovely views down to the river and a pretty garden. Dittisham is an area of outstanding natural beauty, peaceful and friendly, a very stunning village with its undulating landscape. I am already planning my next stay at Riverview.



Love coming to this cottage. 3rd visit and more planned.

Riverview is a well located and appointed cottage, which sleeps 6 people comfortably with parking for 2 cars and somewhere on the road for a third if required.

Dittisham is a a pretty little Village on the River Dart, with 2 pubs, one Post Office (co-located with one of the pubs) and an excellent cafe. There are lots of things to do in the area. We enjoyed canoeing on the River Dart, taking a motor boat from Dartmouth up river and a coastal and valley walk. Several National Trust places are also close at hand. Overall we had a very enjoyable break and would go back.

Riverview was in a perfect location to explore Dartmouth and surrounding areas. Dittisham is a lovely village, Our 4 year old loved the crabbing :-) Riverview was a great base, Plenty of space for all 6 of us, my only issue was the massive tree that was blocking the views :-) but was great sitting on the bench on top of the hill watching the sun set. Will definitely look to book again.



Fantastic 3 storey cottage,

Fantastic 3 storey cottage in the heart of the village. Local to the shop, chip van and park/river 5 minutes walk away. Everything you need on the middle level, beautiful view of the Dart, quiet & peaceful location for the 3 of us. Car parking space near by, local supermarket 10 minutes away.

We really enjoyed the open plan layout of this property and the modern finish. Our only suggestion (not a negative but might persuade us to stay again) would be a double bed (4 ft would be fine) or two singles in the third bedroom rather than bunk beds. Apart from that though it had everything we needed and despite the weather we had a lovely relaxing time.

This terrace cottage modernised and newly decorated has great view from bedroom window and terrace - so bring your binoculars.
Parking no problem unlike others in Dittisham. Nice log burner. Shower is on lower floor and top floor master bedroom has good en-suite bath. Lots to do nearby or a ferry ride away. Recommend

We had not visited this part of the country before and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was very well situated with great views of the river dart. The property was perfect for us with plenty of space and all the comforts we needed. We were very impressed with Dittisham and were glad to be in a smaller quieter place.

We have just enjoyed another relaxing stay in beautiful Dittisham, The accommodation is in a peaceful setting with beautiful views of the River Dart, the accommodation is clean and comfortable with everything provided for a relaxing holiday, if I had one request it would be for some subdued lighting in the lounge area. This was our second stay in Riverview and we have every intention of returning again and would not hesitate to recommend it.
