Charming cottage. The views are incredible. Well positioned near the village shop. Parking was not a problem even though we arrived on a very sunny bank holiday Monday. We enjoyed lunch at the Ferry Boat Inn and one evening we went to the Anchorstone Cafe for supper, which was fantastic.

Curlew Cottage in Dittisham completely met our expectations, it was clean, comfortable and cosy. The village was beautiful with great access to numerous walks along both sides of the Dart Valley, with ideal transport links by boat, we especially loved not having a car. We made good use of the community shop just five minutes from the cottage and the Ferry Boat Inn was the perfect refreshment stop by the quayside. Would definitely recommend Curlew Cottage.
