Overview

The historic village of Kingswear rests on the east bank of the River Dart and flaunts spectacular views of both the river and the naval town of Dartmouth. Characterised by its 15th Century artillery tower and castle as well as the rows of colourful river-facing houses, the village which has easy access to either Dartmouth via ferry or Paignton by steam rail, is a sought-after holiday destination and one that is perfectly placed for enjoying all that both Torbay and the South Hams have to offer.

With floor to ceiling glass this home showcases its beautiful setting from nearly every angle. With plenty of space for eight, each of the four big bedrooms is en-suite so the house is especially suited to multigenerational family groups or as a luxury getaway for four couples. Set over three floors, the elegantly furnished, spacious interior has room for all to unwind in and includes a fabulous, well-equipped kitchen as well as a dining space with exceptional river and countryside views. Two sitting rooms, one open plan with the top floor kitchen / diner and another on the lower ground floor with a range of entertainment features offer guests the opportunity to spend time together whether cooking and dining or simply relaxing in complete comfort while soaking up the atmosphere of the home's exceptional setting.

Outside, Treetops boasts a wonderful river-facing balcony as well as a decked sun terrace, both of which making excellent spots for enjoying a morning coffee or for dining in the Devonshire sunshine. An enclosed courtyard garden below is ideal for guests who are travelling with their dogs in tow, and a variety of excellent walks in the area mean you'll be able to get both the two and four-legged members of the family out and about for fresh air and sight-seeing.

April break
5/5

What a beautiful house in a beautiful superb location with beautiful picturesque views. House had absolutely everything you need for the perfect holiday and the weather wasnt too bad either! Bit chilly at times, but didnt stop us getting out and about. In a great location for exploring surrounding places/areas without the need to use the car.

Very disappointing, not good value for money
3/5

Very disappointed with the actual house, although it is in a great location and has plenty of room. This is the list of problems: 1)Top shelf in fridge was very dirty wit some sort of orange gunge on it 2) The top drawer below the oven had lots of crumbs inside and looked dirty 3)The dishwasher had been previously run and left full of crockery etc and glasses full of dirty water 4) The windows in the lounge were dirty and full of hand prints 5)There was a dirty screwed up old tea towel left inside the cupboard beneath the kettle 6) Only one clean towel left for use 7) No basic condiments like salt and pepper available 8) No cleaning products and just a drop of washing up liquid left 9) Broken bottom shelf in the fridge door- 9) Partly broken cupboard door in one of the bathrooms 10) Tumble dryer smelt and made our clothes smell when we used it- despite me trying to clean it. It didn't work very well either 11) Mould on tiles and round bath in several bathrooms and they smell of damp 12)Shower head leaks in master bedroom 13) Dirty shelf and oven tray in oven- we couldn't use either, the stuff was baked on hard I reported issues 1 to 8 to Hannah, the contact, within 1 hour of arriving and some of those issues were resolved. The Shelf in the fridge door actually broke when we put a carton of milk in it, and it was clear that it had broken before and someone had glued it together. We ordered a new one online from the manufacturer and it arrived that week. Why should we have to do that when we're on holiday??? Overall, it was far from satisfactory; I would like a response and reimbursement for the costs incurred. I have photographs of some of the issues if you would like to see them. We left this house far cleaner than when we first arrived for our holiday.

V nice but let down by household cleaning
3.8/5

There's a lot to like, kitchen modern with great oven and hob. Decoration v good. Panaramic windows internally needed a good clean. Some bedding didn't match. Minor pt, clear out of date tourist blurb needed. .Some exterior door locking needed maintenance. A TV in the kitchen diner would have been nice. Overall generally well up to a decent standard at the price pt, but could be 5 star with not much needing changed.

May Holiday
4.7/5

Holiday at Treetops for wife's 50th birthday was brilliant from the moment you walk in the front door and enter the kitchen open plan living space the views from the panoramic windows is stunning overlooking the River Dart and Dartmouth, all rooms are finished to a high standard all bedrooms are on suite and the kitchen well stocked the bedroom with the balcony leading to the garden is fabulous for sitting and watching the sun set and also the lower terrace for alfresco dining, I could go on and on if you are looking for a place that's tucked away with good access to the surrounding areas on both sides of the river dart this is it, with two local pubs both serving good food, all in all a great place to stay.
