A feature of the patio is an old ship`s anchor that has been made into a table with attached lanterns, as shown in the photograph above, which is a wonderful location to enjoy a drink and the panoramic river views of Dartmouth and the harbour. We also have a bbq on the terrace so that you can relax and enjoy a meal, a drink and the wonderful view! This photograph does not do the view justice as we do not have a wide angle lens that takes in all of the fantastic views.
Steps lead down through a terraced garden to the lower sun terrace enclosed by a low wall and raised flower beds, a rotary washing line is situated on the lower terrace. The bottom terrace enjoys the early morning sun. Both patio and sun terrace are perfect areas for entertaining and enjoying the outstanding panoramic river Dart estuary views of sailing boats and Dartmouth, Devon.
