We had a lovely stay at Riversea Cottage again. It is clean, very comfortable and well equipped with fantastic views of the river and over to Dartmouth Castle, a great location with a lot to see and do, as well as great river and coastal walks.

A beautiful, comfortable house with stunning views. The house was well equipped and furnished beautifully and was a great base from which to explore the Dartford area. The added bonuses of fab WiFi and extensive tv channels were really appreciated esp. on the slightly soggy days!
