Our neighborhood
Dartmouth is a stunningly picturesque, un spoilt & character-full town on the South coast of Devon. After nearly 10 years we still love exploring the many winding streets & absorbing all the colorful historical houses & architectural details. We live in a tranquil street 5 - 10 minutes walk from the centre of the historic & port of Dartmouth with its unique shops & top restaurants. Situated on the south facing side of a valley over the town which presents spectacular views of town & countryside & just 10 minutes from award winning beaches. National trust & English heritage properties, boat trips, crabbing, steam trains, stunning walks means there is always something to do. Dartmoor national park is a short drive. There is a full range of sporting, water sport & tourist activities to do in this very popular town & surrounding area of outstanding natural beauty. Something about ourselves
We are a family of 4 with 2 children, a girl age 4 & boy age 7. We are both designers/artists, my husband paints www.simonhartsartist.co.uk whilst I have recently returned to working designing textile print www.creativehart.co.uk & juggling managing our 2 holiday lets & being a Mum! We have studios on either side of the house. We have both taught in the past & ran a popular art gallery for 7 years in the town. We moved from London 9 years ago. We enjoy travel & visited New Zealand Nov - Dec 2006 & had 2 great home exchanges. We enjoy ski holidays, France, Italy & Spain & new places in the UK. Theri grew up in Dorset & we return there as a family often. Always open to travel suggestions or offers!! We have had 8 great home exchanges & made some interesting friends in the process. We so loved the experience of taking care of someone elses cat in Sweden that we now have a cat who is very easy to take care of. We have an interesting terraced garden which has won a 'BALI' award, full of great tropical plants & places to unwind. As we have 2 holiday lets we are familiar with meeting visitors from all over the world & maintaining our holiday lets to a particular standard for our visitors & as a family treating things with care & respect.  marks the location of this home
