Bayards Cove Inn

Awful wet dog/ drain smell through out the carpeted areas in the upstairs corridors. The property had opened windows and oil reed diffusers on window sills but quite frankly it needs a good clean! Not a pleasant experience. They leave the back door “open” to allow for fumigation but is a security risk to the bedrooms!! The top floor is the 2 bedroom Nelson suite. Very tired looking shared en suite shower room. Toilet seat broken with wobbly seat. Cracked/ broken floor tiles. Black mold in shower grout (very easy to deal with but another example of lazy cleanliness). No hand towel or holder provided for use with the sink! You have to bring your bath sheet and head towel into the en suite and store on top of the closed toilet lid as only a small hook provided on the back of one of the doors. No foot towel provided for exiting the shower cubicle either. Decent smelling shower gel provided but very awkwardly positioned high up in the cubicle not ideal for children or anyone under 5 ft 7 as it is in fixed storage at eye level in a relatively small cubicle. Water pressure average but shower head not easily move able. No plug sockets next to mirrors,hair styling done in one location and only standing up. Same with applying make up. Bad lighting. Ended up standing next to window and using own mirror from makeup bag. skylight in 2nd bedroom in awkward location. Another property can see directly into both rooms and no privacy in 2nd bedroom as broken blind. Leaking roof onto bed!!!

Unique has to be the word for Bayards Cove Inn, Very comfortable and cosy with peaceful colours and lovely furnishings that you can just sink into.

We have stayed here before and are always welcomed and given excellent service This time we noticed more dogs some unfortunately not well trained which I did not appreciate !

Having stayed previously, we booked the Neptune suite, for 3 people and our dog. Breakfast and service were first class. Because we were at the top of the building, the roof blinds were useless, letting in light and not fitted properly, def needs replacing, in both rooms. Not enough storage in the small bathroom, especially for number of people.

Convenient hotel on the harbourside. Friendly staff, good food and comfortable rooms

Another lovely stay at one of our favourites..

Staff very welcoming and helpful! Breakfasts delicious. Lovely extra treats in the room. Felt let down when trying to reduce length of booking. Hotel were fine to amend but hotels.com app was a pain! Location of hotel great for food and drinks. Dartmouth Arms next door lovely too.

The staff are super friendly, the vegan breakfast was incredible. The room was immaculate and beautiful and Dartmouth town is on the doorstep. A perfect weekend away.

Second visit here, can’t fault it, everything is first class

Such a beautiful place to stay - 5* accommodation and food and will definitely be staying again!

Great access to everything in Dartmouth. Cosy place with views.

Lovely old inn , very good breakfast, and a goody bag on leaving

Sensational! Fantastic place, fantastic service, and the town is completely gorgeous 😍

We really enjoyed staying at Bayards Cove during our honey moon week- the staff were fantastic and the hotel was beautiful and located right next to the sea and next to the main high street.

Lovely room, very quirky! Great location, easy to walk around Dartmouth and get to local attractions. Staff were very friendly and helpful!

The room was very nice the staff were phenomenal and the food was excellent. You definitely know you are staying above a pub, with a kitchen that is upstairs next to the rooms. Funny enough that did not bother us so much. However the parking is definitely an issue.

very nice property

Outstanding inn & rooms.

Absolutely loved our stay here. Great staff, so friendly, helpful and attentive. Perfect location, delicious food and coffee. Beautiful bedroom.

All the staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel was all we had hoped for with all the character you could hope for. The quality of the service , food , drink and facilities was outstanding. Would love to return sometime.
