Do remember the house is of an era so not spotlights and spangle. BUT! Other than that, the best date ever. Comfy beds, lovely linen, big fluffy towels, fabulous welcome basket of scones, cream, jam, fresh bread, biscuits, etc. 4 bathrooms,lovely bodywash/soap/shampoo/conditioner.
This is an amazing house in a fabulous spot! A real Wow factor view and cozy house all on one level.
Great for lovers of river life/nature watching.
You need a car to be here, but itâs also lovely to stay in and so calm and quiet. Really lovely.
Very well equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds. Lovely log fire.
Itâs not a modern/shiny kinda place and quite quirky in some ways but we thoroughly enjoyed our 3day stay over Christmas.
We enjoyed our stay.
Fabulous situation and stay in a fabulous place. We were there for a 90th/60th/30th birthday celebration for family and VQ fitted every requirement. It was clean, tidy, well equipped, spacious for us all, big living room area and had very comfy beds and most of all, a spectacular view that you just canât pull away from. Intend to stay again so we can make the most of the waterside access. Highly recommended.
Amazing house , beautiful location , lovely views to wake up to every morning And lovely walks close by for the dog .Two pubs and a shop and post office in area bit of a walk down the hill to them but people are very friendly .Plenty to do around in the area but need a car we went into Paignton for the day and went on the Dartmouth crossing . We had an amazing time celebrating my daughters birthday and new year we will definitely be booking the house again highly recommend. Paddle boards and canoe hire available from the jetty by the ferry boat Inn pub .
We stayed for a long weekend when the weather was terrible but we still had the best time. Celebrating my mum's 60th there were 12 of us total us the dog! Great peaceful location with a great view. Local village for a pint was nice and a log fire in the evening made it a great trip to get the family together. Host Felicity is great, very good communication and helpful in every way.
The property was amazing, it had all we needed for 8 people with 2 dogs! Definitely recommend it for a friends/family get together, the setting is lovely.
The property is supremely relaxing. It has a lovely feel to it, not at all like a usual holiday rental - rather a home from home with a stunning view. The owner is very nice and responded quickly to emails and questions.
It easily accommodated guests and has a great entrance hall which coped with holiday stuff. This left the rest of the house free of clutter and dirt.
The garden is splendid, and the jetty and mooring meant we could sail off instantly at almost any tide.
We did not use the car at all, and went everywhere by boat. Cool.
Would stay again and again.
Vipers'Quay certainly has the 'wow' factor being literally on the river. A lovely house with wonderful views, clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Also a beautiful garden running alongside the river, perfect for relaxing or BBQs. Full use was made of the quay for fishing, crabbing, kayaking, swimming etc. The property is ideally situated for visiting the numerous places of interest in the area ⊠accessed either by boat or car. A fun and lovely place to be.

Enchanting family holiday home with mesmerising view.
This 1960âs boathouse is a charming family holiday home. We were a group celebrating birthdays for a 6 year old and 70 year old. Viperâs quay was a perfect place for a week of creating happy family memories. Crabbing off the jetty. Boat hire. Barbecue. Deck chairs in the garden. Reading Agatha Christieâs books while glancing across to her holiday Home on the opposite bank. Dogs running through the wooded waterside. The noise of the steam train travelling past. And always that incredible view of the river Dart and the bustle of little boats. Just the spot for making memories.
How I loved my few days at this peaceful spot! The views are stunning! It was a weekend of good company with great friends! Fine wines and laughter!

Pure Bliss on the River Dart
Staying at Vipers' Quay is pure bliss. The setting of this exquisitely designed Modernist house, amidst wooded hills, farmland and the charming village of Dittisham, a ferry ride away from Dartmouth, is wondrous. The description of the property is extremely accurate; the property is sparkling clean, thoughtfully equipped and well maintained; the owner is delightful and always helpful; the area abounds with gardens, historical houses and buildings to visit and splendid walks. This was our fourth stay. we yearn to return.

Paradise on The Dart !
Without doubt, the most amazing location on the River Dart ! If you want tranquility and relaxation, Vipers Quay is unbeatable. My family and friends spent 2 wonderful weeks here, resulting in nothing but praise and admiration. Vipers Quay is able to offer all the requirements needed in a large family holiday home, with the added bonus of being ideal for dogs. Set in the most glorious countryside, on the banks of the river, you can quite literally be âin your own little worldâ, yet easily accessible to the local shop, pubs, and regular water taxi to Dartmouth. The accomodation is both clean and facilitating, with space to comfortably absorb the largest of families. Unique in every way ! CF
Stunning location and very well appointed house for a family group. We enjoyed relaxing around the house and grounds as well as walking to Dartmouth and catching a ferry back. We recommend the Ferry Boat Inn for good pub grub!
Wow - we had a fantastic time. It was a childhood dream to stay at Vipers Quay - and totally exceeded my expectations. It is such a special place, and property is as fantastic inside as it looks from the outside. I knew the view would be good, but that feeling of "floating on the water" when in the front room is amazing. We hired a boat and had some excellent family adventures on the River Dart. Great information provided before arrival and in the house. Weather was perfect all week - great memories and a 50th birthday I'll never forget!

A wonderful property - exciting to travel mostly by water instead of road.
We are a group of 8 elderly walkers, although one is now unable to join us on long walks. The house and facilities were perfect - what a treat to have such a view across the river. We phoned for a ferry boat to collect us from the pontoon outside, which took us to the opposite ferry stage, a shuttle car drove us up to Greenway. The second trip was by car to Little Dartmouth where we set off for a coastal walk to Dartmouth Castle and back - about 4 miles. One of our group is an expert canoeist, who really enjoyed her trips on the river, from our jetty. We enjoyed evening meals at The Ferry Boat Inn (you can park on the small beach when the tide is out).
This was our second stay at Vipers Quay and the property was as we remembered in excellent condition and perfect location overlooking the Dart and up to Dittisham. We hired a boat for the week which we moored at the property and allowed for trips into Dartmouth to the Ferryboat Inn and Anchorstone Cafe in Dittisham both of which are also recommended. The owners are very helpful and the property is well equipped. We are already working out when will go again.

Magnificent! Spacious, Stunning views
Two families (9 people) enjoyed this magic property over the Christmas period. The views were stunning, rooms spacious, amenities were excellent. Very happy with our stay. We would definitely recommend to friends and family and would love to enjoy the facilities in the summer and not just the winter.
It's difficult to imagine a better setting than Viper's Quay - the views from the main living room are stunning. The property is very comfortable and well equipped. The grounds are fantastic and perfect for early morning crabbing and launching paddle boards. Seal spotting was another favourite past time for the kids. A short row or a bracing walk to the village and Ferry Boat Inn . This is the second time we have stayed as a large group at Viper's Quay and would highly recommend it and hope to visit again soon.
We have just come back from our second visit to Vipers Quay this year, and no doubt we will return again next year. Having been there a few times in the past we never grow tired of the superb views and location. It's such a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The owners are always very helpful and considerate and the locals are always very friendly.
Dittisham is a lovely little village and the house itself is in a perfect location. A fantastic place to escape for a relaxing time.
Spectacular views from ultra quiet position within walking distance of Dittisham with great pubs and restaurants. We had a lovely family holiday there and would highly recommend this house
