Why stay in this location and hotel?

Exceptional natural beauty, boat trips, history, walking, food and drink. The Royal Castle Hotel is situated behind Dartmouth Boat Float in the centre of town. Dartmouth is located between The English Riviera and the long shingle beaches of Start Bay. Known for its remarkable waterside setting, the town rises from water level up the side of the steep estuary valley. Along with Salcombe, this is essential UK visiting.
