Tree Tops

The historic village of Kingswear rests on the east bank of the River Dart and flaunts spectacular views of both the river and the naval town of Dartmouth. Characterised by its 15th Century artillery tower and castle as well as the rows of colourful river-facing houses, the village which has easy access to either Dartmouth via ferry or Paignton by steam rail, is a sought-after holiday destination and one that is perfectly placed for enjoying all that both Torbay and the South Hams have to offer.

Designed to make the most of its elevated position, the aptly-named Treetops which has been built into the hillside, commands extraordinary views not only of Waterhead Creek and the River Dart below but also of the surrounding countryside, with floor to ceiling glass showcasing every inch of the home’s beautiful setting. With plenty of space for eight, each of the four big bedrooms is en-suite so the house is especially suited to multigenerational family groups or as a luxury getaway for four couples. Set over three floors, the elegantly furnished, spacious interior has room for all to unwind in and includes a fabulous, well-equipped kitchen as well as a dining space with exceptional river and countryside views. Two sitting rooms, one open plan with the top floor kitchen / diner and another on the lower ground floor with a range of entertainment features offer guests the opportunity to spend time together whether cooking and dining or simply relaxing in complete comfort while soaking up the atmosphere of the home's exceptional setting.

Outside, Treetops boasts a wonderful river-facing balcony as well as a decked sun terrace, both of which making excellent spots for enjoying a morning coffee or for dining in the Devonshire sunshine. An enclosed courtyard garden below is ideal for guests who are travelling with their dogs in tow, and a variety of excellent walks in the area mean you'll be able to get both the two and four-legged members of the family out and about for fresh air and sight-seeing.
