“Had a lovely few days at Ferryside, the apartment was very clean and modern with everything you needed and more.”

Very comfortable beds, the best shower i have had in ages, kitchen very well equipped, lounge area very comfortable. The apartment is in a prime location for the ferry to Dartmouth, stream train to Paignton and a couple of great pubs near by. With parking right opposite 4 day's for £32.

“A really lovely stay at Ferryside.”

Immaculately clean throughout and every kitchen utensil provided you could think of. Perfectly positioned and although no parking this wasn’t an issue with the reasonably price car park opposite. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

“A splendid property in a terrific location.”

Recently (2022) converted to a very high quality, the owners have supplied everything that one could possibly need. More kitchen utensils than we have at home and sometimes better quality!

“This was the first time we’ve used Sykes and I fear we may have peaked too early, Ferryside was outstanding in every aspect.”

Convenient location, well appointed, all the mod cons and a great base to tour South Devon from. Before booking we were slightly concerned about parking but need not have been, a pay & display is directly opposite and reasonably priced. Will definitely stay here again.

“Stunning apartment with quality furnishings in a fantastic location.”

Spotlessly clean and comfortable especially the beds. I booked the property for family from Denmark and they loved every minute of their stay in Ferryside.

“We had a really nice stay at Ferryside.”

The position of the property is perfect for the steam railway and river dart / sea cruises. Ferryside is well equipped and extremely comfortable. There is lots of lovely walks in the area some along the edge of the river so flat. If you prefer there are walks up hills with breath-taking views of the river dart / harbour / sea and coast line. Dartmouth is a quick ferry ride across the river and Brixham a short drive.

“Lovely property with and excellent standard in comfort and cleanliness.”

Good facilities, like TV in each room, plenty of power sockets, and a reasonably reliable WiFi. The only downsides are managing heat levels in the rooms, and the need for secure ventilation in the downstairs bedroom. We did note that drivers ignored the single sign requesting them to switch their engines off while waiting for the ferry - the fumes and noise were annoying. In case anyone is concerned, the ferry is not an issue.

“Beautiful apartment in a lovely location.”

The apartment was very modern, with more than enough space for 4 adults to enjoy a relaxing week. The apartment was clean, bright and well equipped with everything we needed for our week's holiday. The only issue was parking, having no dedicated parking space. Parking was either in a public car park opposite at £8 for overnight parking or on side streets, up some very steep hills, which could create a problem if you had mobility issues.

“This is a lovely property in a prime position.”

We thought it was exceptionally well equipped & a well thought out layout. We loved the artwork on the walls throughout. We were a little concerned at the way the shower screen leaks in the bathroom. It wasn’t an inconvenience, but the place is so beautifully decorated it seemed a shame to see the water stains. I would love to return to Ferryside for a longer stay

Dawn July 2023

“Excellent property, well thought out.”

Great location. Pictures don't do it justice somehow. The balcony was just right for alfresco breakfasts in the morning sun. Also got the evening sun too. Loads to do in the area.

“Ferryside is a beautiful property right in the heart of Kingswear.”

The property is lovely, with the owners obviously having considered everything. The open area with the kitchen, table and sofas is a relaxing place to unwind after visiting the many local attractions. The nod to these local attractions in the form of various photographic wall art is a nice touch. We loved our time away at Ferryside and would love to return. If you're considering renting this property for your holiday, do not hesitate. We will miss grabbing a coffee from the coffee shop a couple of doors down, hopping on the ferry to Dartmouth, and watching the historic trains arrive and depart from the station opposite (as well as many other things).

“We were really impressed by the prime location of this property.”

It really does provide a great base from which to explore. We only needed to use the car once in a week! The apartment itself is very well appointed. It is comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated. The 3 of us slept very well every night and the property had everything that we needed. We very highly recommend this property!

“Ferryside is a luxurious and chic property with super comfy mattresses and bedding.”

Everything feels sturdy high end and easy to use. Sitting in the lounge area watching the ferry come in and the occasional gentle whistle of the steam train opposite was pure seaside pleasure. So much to see and do right on your doorstep yet peaceful and relaxing. An absolute gem - will definitely return.

“We had a lovely week in Dartmouth - enjoyed our accommodations which are a little quirky due to the layout.”

The steam train is a great adventure as are the variety of boat trips to Greenwat etc. etc. Lots to do and see - the best part is the lower ferry fascinating to cross the river in this unique way!

- David, September 2022
Nicky August 2022

“What a delightful property!”

Beautifully decorated and so incredibly clean. The house is in such a handy location; the steam train, ferries and buses are a stones throw away. Would highly recommend Ferryside, and would definitely stay there again.

The property

This modern duplex flat is located in the middle of Kingswear, Devon's lively harbour village.

Ferryside is the ideal location for those seeking a trip to this great Devonshire hotspot, as it is just a short distance from the ferry to Dartmouth and a multitude of attractions such as the steam railway, coastal walks and the River Dart.

Situated in the heart of the historic village this is a vibrant location, ideal for people watching, with the steam trains from Paignton arriving with passengers en-route for the ferries to Dartmouth and the regular 'clang' as the car ferry lowers its ramp onto the slipway nearby. At times this is a busy and bustling location but you couldn't wish for a more convenient location close to the quay and the river.

All the windows have been replaced with UPVC double glazing: ideal if it does get a bit noisy!

The first of the bedrooms is on the ground level, with a king-size bed and Smart TV, as well as a dazzling bathroom with bath and shower over.

Also on the ground floor is a fully fitted utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer.

Stairs with concealed lighting lead off the hallway to a fantastic open-plan living area with a modern finish and plenty of natural light to brighten the space.Sit back and relax on the sofas and armchairs, watching your favourite shows on the 50 inch Smart TV or reflecting on your vacation so far.

The kitchen, which is equipped with a variety of gadgets and elegant units, is a delightful space to prepare meals.A patio door opens to a tiny outdoor area with a bistro table and seats, perfect for people watching.

The spacious master bedroom offers another king-size bed with TV, as well as a contemporary en-suite shower room.

Nearby, there are a variety of cafes, art galleries, stores, and boutique eateries to explore, all set on the stunning waterfront; notable restaurants include The Seahorse Restaurant and Bushell's Riverside.The 16th-century Kingswear Castle is located close by.

There are some scenic walks on the doorstep, with the property situated only a few yards from the South West Coast path.If you are feeling fit, then take the stunning coast path to the National Trust Coleton Fishacre Art Deco House and gardens, or walk alongside the river to Greenway to visit Agatha Christie's Greenway House (also National Trust) with the option of ferries back to Dartmouth or across the River to the charming Dittisham village.

Make memories together at Ferryside.
