Wagtails
Wagtails is a cottage in Dartmouth, Devon, sleeping four and suited to couples or a small family wanting a South West base with the sea close at hand. Warfleet Creek on the Dart Estuary, with excellent water quality, is just 1.5 miles off, while Paignton station sits 6.4 miles away for those arriving by rail.

For days when you'd rather stay local, Dartmouth Museum, the Newcomen Engine and Britannia Museum are all around 1.3-1.4 miles away. The Bake House and Smith Street Delicatessen, both with five-star hygiene ratings, are handy for picking up food nearby, and EV charging is available close to the cottage too.
