    Compact but comfortable cottage. Views from the site. Lovely location in the Village. Very peaceful. Might be a bit crowded in the summer holidays but was almost empty in April. Perfect for four adults and two well-behaved dogs.

Property information

Shippon End is a mews-style barn conversion within Dittisham Court. With great character and atmosphere, this cottage is designed around uniquely quirky odd corner angles, giving it an extra charm. Local amenities and the river are all within walking distance and, even though Shippon End has no private outdoor space, guests benefit from access to the four acres of communal gardens and grounds of Dittisham Court and a private parking space. Dogs are also welcome at Shippon End.

Neighbourhood information

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.
