A must visit - spend the day exploring the shops, eateries, bars and art galleries of Dartmouth. There are also historic sights such as the Castle.
There are multiple ways to get to Dartmouth from the house but we recommended a 45 minute walk along the Dart Valley Trail to Kingswear where you can catch the higher or lower ferry over to Dartmouth. If you don't fancy walking back, you can catch the Greenway Ferry back up the river to Greenway Quay.
