Really enjoyed staying at the property which was accessible but not so much for the elderly and are immobile. Great views and a delightful property for a break.
It was comfortable, clean and everything that you need. The summer house was a great addition. Thank you so much
Great property in the most excellent location. Close to everything. We parked the car on Friday night and didn't get back in it until we left on the Monday. Everything you need in the house and very comfortable.
A beautiful, relaxing stay between Christmas and New Year. The house was decorated just right. We've visited now during three seasons and each has proved wonderful. With crazy weather, it was terrific to have the ferries so close. I love going round the house looking at the pictures, ornaments and soft furnishings. The house was lovely and warm throughout the stay
A very good property to stay in, good location, ferry handy to use to get access to Dartmouth, where most of cafes/restaurants are. Good walks, we did not need to use the car for 5 days !
A really great property, conveniently situated for Dartmouth.
Property well appointed with lovely views over the river Dart, we never tired of looking at the boats.
We were looking for a quality property and Morocco House did not disappoint. The house is beautifully kept, we had everything we needed; we were very comfortable.
The views across to Dartmouth and beyond from every window are stunning.
The location is perfect, just down the steps to the little ferry and the railway station. We enjoyed our stay very much.
Wonderful house - probably the best we’ve ever stayed in
A beautiful home with quality furnishings - we loved it! Excellent communication from the owner. We had a wonderful time exploring the area - the ferry makes trips back and forth to Dartford so easy. Be sure to visit the Seahorse restaurant and Kents Caverns - and a walk along the coastal path from the house offers some breathtaking views.
Every member of our six strong party thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at Morocco house. The location was perfect with easy access to the ferry and everything else the area has to offer. The house was spotless and we all agreed we would love to return.
We had the most fantastic 3 night stay at Morocco House. The property was absolutely perfect for our needs, was so beautifully appointed and had everything we could possibly need. The property was spotless, the beds were very comfy, the garden was magical and the views from every aspect were glorious! It couldn't have been more convenient for the ferry, too. We look forward to returning.
We loved the location, overlooking Dartmouth which is stunning day and night. Take care with any Google directions and just stick to the main road. Avoid coming off the main road via Higher Street, alongside The Ship Inn - as we did! Accommodation is perfect and the ferry just a short walk away takes you straight into Dartmouth.
We had a lovely stay at Morocco House. The bedrooms and bathrooms were lovely. Everything smelt new and fresh. There was everything available in the kitchen to suit our needs and we loved all of the little sea themed ornaments. A really well planned/thought out holiday home. We would definitely stay again. Really pretty location with stunning views from each bedroom.
This house was fantastic for our family holiday. It was very clean and had lovely furnishings and decor.
The location was perfect with superb views from every window.
We only used the care twice during our stay.
We would definitely book this house again. The only consideration is access to the property as there are steps to it but once you get up the steps the views are amazing.
This is a beautiful property in a stunning location. The house is immaculate and beautifully furnished with everything you could need. The location is really convenient for the parking and the ferries across to Dartmouth, although there are quite a few steps involved. Wendy the host was very helpful and the level of information supplied was excellent. Overall we had a lovely stay in this wonderful house and would recommend it whole heartedly.
Fantastic property looking across the Dart to Dartmouth. 25 second walk to either passenger ferry or ‘lower’ car ferry.
Very clean and beautifully decorated with all the amenities you could wish for. Such good communications and particularly helpful sorting out car parking tickets for us in advance of our arrival. I cannot recommend this enough.
We've just spent the most wonderful week in Morocco House! Wendy was very helpful throughout the booking process and during our stay. The house was spotlessly clean and equipped with everything needed for our stay.
The views are amazing, with the added bonus of a little garden with garden room offering great views of the Dart. Needless to say we did a lot of eating outside!
Thank you Wendy for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage!!

Fantastic place to stay!
Lovely stay at Morocco House, the kitchen/diner had everything you need and is a good space if you wish to prepare and have meals. There are good places to eat out in Dartmouth and Kingswear. It was lovely to return to after a busy day, we loved the views of the river and looking at all the boats, so relaxing. The coast path is a great walk and you can do as little or as much as you like, the Castle at Dartmouth is worth a visit and really all of the South Hams is beautiful with so much to do. We do hope to return soon.

A wonderful property with stunning views. Very clean with all the amenities you need. Good communication with Wendy for check in. Easy access to Dartmouth on the ferry 30 seconds from the doorstep. Got to know alot of the local business owners at the coffee shop, post office, cafe, Italian wine bar and The Ship Inn, all very friendly and welcoming. A great walk behind the house through the woods and along the coast. Would definitely hope to return. Thank you for sharing this wonderful place.

Fabulous stay
Wonderful property, beautifully decorated with lovely touches making it comfortable and welcoming. Everything you need is provided, comfy beds and modern bathrooms. The views are just amazing from every window and the garden is a great place to relax whilst watching the myriad of boats go by. Kingswear has a lovely village atmosphere and the ferry is close so you can visit Dartmouth for shops, cafes restaurants and by car you can get to the stunning beach at Blackpool sands and many more places such as Bigbury and Bantham. You can take a boat trip to Greenway, Agatha Christie's summer home, and Brixham and Torbay are within easy reach too. There is so much to do we will have to return
A perfect retreat. Views to die for and the house is extremely well equipped with everything you might need. Ferry great fun and just down the steps from the house. You will not be disappointed if you book this property, we are already thinking of coming back. Absolutely loved it.
Much preferred being on this side of the ferry this time round, Kingswear is peaceful and you are able to walk the coastal paths with the dog and relax. The house is perfectly positioned for nipping across on the ferry for dinner and for nosying at all the boats and comings and goings. Great holiday
