Moving to Dartmouth

Dartmouth has a fantastic history, linked directly to the British empire and Spanish Armada. Fast forward 400 years and it is now a brilliant and beautiful little town for all ages.

Key Points:

• Known as the jewel of the South Hams. A vibrant town throughout the ages has led to many independent and boutique shops housing themselves under Tudor roofs.
• A delightful array of houses are scattered throughout Dartmouth, from merchants’ houses to stone-built cottages. There is something for everyone.
• Plenty of schools can be found in and around Dartmouth, offering a wide choice of both primary and secondary schools.
• The nearest station to London is from Totnes (12 miles away), so driving is a necessity in these areas.

Situated on the banks of the River Dart, Dartmouth is the perfect destination all year-round. Escaping the polluted air of the cities in favour of the fresh, crisp air in South Devon is common throughout the year.

The South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is right on the town’s doorstep, so grab your hiking boots and get exploring.

When summer is at its height, many will flock to the beaches to grab one of the rare rays of the sun that finds its way through the thick overcast above.
