Property information

Holly Cottage is a delightful 400-year-old home brimming with character and in touching distance of the Dittisham riverside. Sleeping five in three rooms – and pets are welcome too. A year-round home, a river-view patio at the front and walled patio at the rear are perfect for summer. Inside, plush seating and a log burner make for a cosy stay in the cooler months. Venture a few steps to the riverbank for the popular inn and café or hope on a ferry to Dartmouth or the grand Greenway estate.

Neighbourhood information

Dittisham truly is a Devon gem. Nestled a few miles upstream from Dartmouth, this unspoiled and tranquil village is perfect for a relaxing riverside break and really makes the most of its waterside location. Watersports, fishing, sailing, paddle boarding and leisurely river rides are on your doorstep. Or why not hire a boat and explore the valley at your own pace? On land, the shoreline meadow makes for a perfect picnic spot. Downstream by the jetty is The Ferry Boat Inn – drink and dine while enjoying picture-perfect views across the river valley beyond. It’s also where you can hire a canoe or kayak and paddle the river’s shallower waters. Dittisham is also superbly connected by river to the Dart Valley’s must-see villages, towns, and attractions. Year-round frequent ferries take you to the historic port of Dartmouth, picturesque Kingswear and the eclectic charms of Totnes. And, just across the river on the opposite bank, a quick boat trip takes you to Agatha Christie’s resplendent Greenway holiday home and gardens, now cared for by the National Trust, and an idyllic day out.
