The property
Bight Boathouse is perched above the banks of the River Dart and just a short stroll from the centre of Dartmouth, this landmark building part of the historic Bight Boatyard occupies one of the most desirable riverside positions. Boasting fabulous river views in either direction and across to the pretty village of Kingswear, this spacious, traditionally styled and furnished property boasts its own private gym and indoor swimming pool and is a firm favourite for larger groups and holidays with family and friends. A flight of steps lead down to the entrance and first floor landing where you will find 4 large bedrooms each boasting fabulous views. The front two rooms enjoy access to the upper balcony, one with a lavish en-suite bathroom. A family bathroom serves the other bedrooms and a spiral staircase leads down to middle floor and main living area with wall to ceiling windows and doors that span the width of the room and lead onto the balcony to the front. A great family room with dining table, pool table and comfortable seating area. A separate snug is equipped with a whole host of different games including a roulette wheel and blackjack tables for casino nights in! A spacious kitchen is equipped to cater for large parties and is furnished with a dining table for morning breakfasts and lunches on the go! On the lower ground floor you will find even more to keep the family occupied on rainy days including arcade games and a separate swimming pool with poolside gym, sauna and a table tennis room, all available at an additional cost per week. The two upper levels come with terraces and balconies equipped with patio furniture for alfresco dining and relaxing outside, where you can simply kick back and relax in the best spot along the riverbank and watch the comings and goings of the river traffic. Meander into town and soak up the café culture, your choice of restaurants range from fine dining to award winning fish and chips best enjoyed on the promenade overlooking the river! Take time to enjoy the art galleries, boutiques and the history of this beautiful town, and an evening walk along the riverbank will take you to Dartmouth castle. For days out on the beach, head along the coast to Blackpool Sands, a beautiful sheltered bay with a great beach café and watersports tuition and hire. A round of golf can be enjoyed at Dartmouth Golf and Country Club and for family days a trip to Woodlands will keep little ones entertained. With so much to do at this fabulous riverside holiday home, with the town right on your doorstep, a holiday at Bight Boathouse is one for sharing with family and friends!
