Property info

Orchard Cottage is a delightful, south-facing holiday cottage in Dittisham Court. It’s perfect for a romantic stay or a small family holiday in this lovely riverside village. Enjoy the sunny, private patio with village views, and access to an orchard of Dittisham plum, flowering cherry, apple, and willow trees. The river and village amenities are all in walking distance. There’s access to four acres of communal grounds and one allocated parking space right outside. Dogs are welcome, too.

Neighborhood info

Dittisham truly is a Devon gem. Nestled a few miles upstream from Dartmouth, this unspoiled and tranquil village is perfect for a relaxing riverside break and really makes the most of its waterside location. Watersports, fishing, sailing, paddle boarding and leisurely river rides are on your doorstep. Or why not hire a boat and explore the valley at your own pace? On land, the shoreline meadow makes for a perfect picnic spot. Downstream by the jetty is The Ferry Boat Inn – drink and dine while enjoying picture-perfect views across the river valley beyond. It’s also where you can hire a canoe or kayak and paddle the river’s shallower waters. Dittisham is also superbly connected by river to the Dart Valley’s must-see villages, towns, and attractions. Year-round frequent ferries take you to the historic port of Dartmouth, picturesque Kingswear and the eclectic charms of Totnes. And, just across the river on the opposite bank, a quick boat trip takes you to Agatha Christie’s resplendent Greenway holiday home and gardens, now cared for by the National Trust, and an idyllic day out.
