About
A perfect combination of (extremely) close proximity to the river plus exceptionally easy access direct off the street / from your car. No need to drag suitcases up/down narrow cobbled alleyways. Fabulously practical location. Being so close to the river and riverbank, the property avoids the (often significant) access and or parking problems associated with many other rental properties in town which are located halfway up (or at the top of) the steep lanes and alleyways leading down to the river Dart. Not only does this property provide very close proximity to the river (45 seconds), shops, cafes and restaurants but it also enjoys the major advantage of being located on a ‘sensible’ street by Dartmouth standards (normal / reasonably wide street unlike many others in town). Guests appreciate the convenience of stopping their car right outside the property (without obstructing other vehicles) to unload luggage, drop off passengers and shopping etc. before then parking either in a space on that same street or in the Mayor’s Avenue car park (parking permit included in rental rate ). (NOTE: The owners of ' Heywood ' operate a minimum age policy for younger guests of 12 years old. Where possible owners try to operate a Saturday / Saturday calendar, or if your stay is less than 7 nights, a Sunday or Monday start is preferable.)
