The Property

Luxury riverside holiday house in Dartmouth with indoor swimming pool

Inside

Originally built in 1991 by Carpenter Oak, River House is an inspirational abode combining the luxury of an indoor pool amidst the integral design of this stylish home. The interiors have been simplified to create the calm semi - minimalist atmosphere that flows throughout the elegant simplicity of the grand oak structure.

• Style:  Barn house minimalist, impressive oak beams tower high above you offering a solid feel of space and calm. Glass panels invite the outside in and combine beautifully with the wood and Italian furniture, scattered contemporary art and fresh fabrics all blend beautifully to complete the tranquil haven of River House.
• Bedrooms: There are 6 bedrooms in total. Choose from 2 of the double themed suites, the Aqua suite or the calming Zen suite. There's a child's bunk room as well as a cabin bed single room which are ideal for younger members of the group. There is also another double bedded room and a twin found within the Zen quarters.
• Bathrooms: Both the suites have bathrooms, there is a shower room and bathroom that the twin and double room share and a shower room for the childrens rooms.
• For relaxation:  Sink into the hot tub and enjoy the peace and tranquil view, switch off with some private in-house beauty treatments or relax in the library with a good book. Yoga and Tai Chi classes can be arranged for you at the house.
• For recreation:  Start your day with a morning swim in the private heated indoor pool, fold back the doors and enjoy al fresco dining in the Mediterranean styled courtyard. Stroll in the grounds and take in the view of the glinting River Dart below.
• Practicalities:  A large American style fridge freezer, washer and dryer. Ample parking off road for up to 5 cars

Outside

Set within five acres of stunning gardens and parkland, River House offers a 180 degree vista of the river and the rolling green Devon hills on either side. The generous terracotta pots scattered in the courtyard burst with tropical palms and Mediterranean plants whilst the chunky timber patio furniture offers a quiet place to sit and reflect.
