There are very few houses you can book which are directly on the waterfront in Dartmouth – Gullsway Boathouse is one of them.

Lower Gullsway forms part of the Gullsway Boathouse which comprises two, self contained, two bedroomed apartments, both listed on this site. Lower Gullsway is on the ground floor with direct access to the water and mooring , whilst Upper Gullsway is located on the first floor, and enjoys its own private balcony. Both properties have spectacular views up and across the river Dart, Kingswear, and the sea beyond. We have had visitors there from 8 weeks old to 80 years. However, there are 90 or so irregular steps down to the apartments from the road, so whilst not suitable for the infirm, it is well worth the effort for the fantastic views, waterside views, and exclusive location.

Lower Gullsway is a recently refurbished ground floor waterside apartment. It has an open plan sitting room, dining area and kitchen. It is very well equipped, with high speed wifi, fitted kitchen, a new 43 inch smart TV with all the modern viewing apps. There is a wood burning stove to give you that cosy relaxing evening.

Wonderful location and views - the apartment has stunning direct views over the estuary, and a beautiful newly refurbished terrace to allow you to fully enjoy your stay on the water’s edge. The apartment has direct access to the estuary and the sea with its own steps to the water and a running mooring for those who wish to use a boat up to 4.2m. Dartmouth is just 7 minutes’ walk to the very centre of town. It is an amazing town, full of history, culture and events. It is a great base for exploring Devon's many attractions.

The front door open directly from the terrace into the wood effect tiled open plan living area. Glass doors lead to the rear of the property where you will find doors to the bedrooms, bathrooms and utility room. At the front of the spacious living area are doors and windows offering unrestricted, panoramic, estuary and sea views. The doors and windows fill the room with light and offer access to the terrace with sun loungers and rattan table and chairs, so you can fully enjoy the waterside experience. Here you can relax and watch the ever changing water traffic and keep an eye out for the dolphins and seals which are regular visitors. There’s crab lines and nets round the side you can use. You will catch dozens of crabs, and often Gerald the gobi fish – all you need is a bit of bait – the smellier the better!

The lounge area has two sofas, smart TV with DVD, coffee tables and subtle lighting for a relax in the evenings. There is a dining table that comfortably seats six.

The kitchen has a large fridge freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, oven, hob, microwave, kettle and toaster. There is undercounter mood lighting.

To the rear you will find the refurbished master and twin bedrooms. The master bedroom has a kingsize bed, large fitted wardrobes and access to the grotto and fairy garden. The twin room is of a similar size with similar views and with fitted wardrobes. The single beds can be joined to form a kingsize on request. The family bathroom has a bath, separate shower , WC and basin. There is a separate shower room with WC with wash basin.

We provide a free parking pass to our guests for use in the local town car parks and park and ride. Parking can also be found near the property on the road above but it can be very busy in the summer months, and also has summer time restrictions. Guests usually just leave their cars, free, for their stay in the town car park. Warfleet, which is a 10 minute walk towards the castle at the estuary entrance, has free roadside parking.
