Stylish detached annexe in Kingsbridge, estuary walk to great pub/town & parking
Perfect retreat for two people. The Boathouse has been refurbished to a very high standard throughout. Light and airy with exposed beams, oak flooring and high spec kitchen and shower room. It has been thoughtfully designed and well equipped for a comfortable, relaxed break. Private patio overlooking exotic plant garden and views through to the estuary. Off-street parking. Just under 1 mile from Kingsbridge town centre, a thriving market town with picturesque quay, character high street, two supermarkets and market square. The very popular Crabshell Inn pub is situated right on the Quay and only 8 minutes walk away along the estuary. The popular tourist destinations of Salcombe, Dartmouth and Totnes are only 15-30 minutes drive away. Our nearest beach, South Milton, is beautiful and only a 15 minute drive away, while the coastal walks on offer are spectacular. Weekly bookings (Saturday to Saturday) May to the end of September . Short stays (3 night minimum) available at all other times.

A very nice place to be. Clean, well-decorated and well-equipped. Space at a premium but used very well. Parking a little awkward but a great location for exploring South Devon. Thank you, Fleur and Rob.

'Perfect'
'Perfect' The only way to describe this lovely accommodation. A lot of thought has gone into making the guests feel comfortable and at home with everything you need. A 'little gem' in the wonderful South Hams area of Devon.
The Boathouse lived up to our expectations. Compact, but with everything you need including a large double bed, lots of storage space and appliances and equipment of excellent quality. It felt private with our own little terrace. A great week’s stay! Thank you

Brilliant
Great. Lovely place well equipped and set out. I would stay here again. Just right for a couple. Fleur was very welcoming and helpful. 5 star all the way
As always with vrbo the booking and management of the property was stress free. Communication with property owner was prompt. Description of the beach house was exactly as documented. Very well equipped, light and comfortable. Perfect for a short or longer stay. Good bus and boat links to many local places to visit.
The boathouse is a delightful property in a beautiful location
I grew up in the Kingsbridge area so we really enjoyed visiting old haunts and seeing old school friends. My only comment would be that the boathouse is at the top of a steep flight of steps which my husband who has difficulty walking found difficult. I do not recall this being mentioned though I may be wrong. Anyway we managed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Superb!! What a gem.
The Boat House - what a little gem. This is by far the best self catering accommodation we have stayed in. Everything about it is quality - quality accommodation, quality fixtures and equipment, quality furnishings, everything you need for a comfortable stay - and a very friendly welcome. Not forgetting of course the superb and easily accessible South Hams villages and countryside. Superb. We'll be back. Stuart & Angie // Glossop.
My partner and I had an amazing stay at the Boathouse from start to finish. We like to say a big thanks to Fleur for the excellent communications leading up our stay - she was super information and made the check in process and real breeze.
The accommodation was spotless and beautifully designed. It’s the perfect size for a couple and comes with an awesome kitchen and all the utensils you could ask for, plus dishwasher and awesome oven. The bathroom had a great walk in shower and a sky light and the bedroom comes with a decent size wardrobe and a modern tv with Netflix etc (as does the living room). The highlight for me was the premium BBQ on the wooden terrace!
The properly is about 15 mins on foot from Kingsbridge and on route you’ll pass the rather nice Crab Shell pub restaurant.
If you’re looking for a home from home whilst visiting Devon then I highly recommend the Boat House :)
Thanks Fleur and Rob for a lovely stay!
Absolutely superb holiday apartment. Warm and cosy even in a cold snap, extremely well equipped and well thought out and maintained. Lovely part of the world and the Boathouse is well situated for visiting all the local sites.
A perfect, clean and modern accommodation for two people. Situated in a beautiful area with easy access to shops, pub and wonderful places to explore for walkers especially. Short drive to beaches too. Excellent and easy booking and communication with owners. Would highly recommend this property!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Boathouse in Kingsbridge. The property was exactly as described and spotlessly clean. The area is wonderful with many places nearby to explore.
A perfect self-contained single bed annex situated in an ideal location to explore this lovely part of Devon. I can't think of anything that was lacking. The southern facing of the property and its small associated yard is ideal for catching the sunshine. Highly recommended.
Beautifully appointed and clean. The parking was quite challenging and stressful as the property is positioned on a very busy main road and on a bend. The property was spotless and of a high standard and with lovely approachable hosts.
What a lovely week overlooking the estuary and visiting local seaside villages and towns, National Trust properties and boat trips. The Boathouse is on a road but not too busy and so convenient for exploring the locality. Superb, would return! Thank you :-)
Everything in the property was top quality. Well maintained and scrupulously clean. Thoughful extras included, much appreciated. Fleur and Rob were very helpful and friendly. Short walk into Kingsbridge with a good choice of eating places especially The Old Bakery.
Very inviting property which impressed us immediately. Spotlessly clean, beautiful and modern interior of the boathouse with off street parking and total privacy both inside and on the terrace. Location is ideal for visiting the beautiful South Hams area of Devon. The hosts Rob and Fleur are delightful and had provided everything one could wish for to ensure our holiday was a success. To top it all it was sunny every day! Chris and Christine. May 2022.

Really enjoyed our stay at The Boathouse Well thought out accommodation for two Very clean and tidy Brilliant shower with lots of hot water Lovely fresh cotton bedding And Fleur kindly arranged for the sun to shine all week too 😀😀
Lovely property in great location to explore South Devon
The property was clean and in really good condition, with everything you might need - including lots of pans, utensils etc for cooking. It was also really light and airy with large south facing windows with estuary views. The location was very handy to access many of the beautiful local beaches and coastal paths.
We had a great time staying at the Boathouse. Compact and cute and really well kitted out with everything you need. Love Kingsbridge and the surrounding areas.
