What’s more romantic than a picturesque walk in the heart of South Devon? Dartmouth is home to several walking routes for those who fancy a brisk stroll, or the adventure-seeking couples that prefer more challenging hikes.
For example, If you’re easygoing and would prefer to explore the area more, the Dartmouth Town Trail is a great way to learn about the heritage of the beautiful town.

Blackpool Sands is one of Devon’s most beautiful beaches – a magical hidden cove nestled amongst the surrounding scenery of swaying evergreens and towering pines. If you fancy braving a dip in the winter sea, the water is clean and pure, and the cove is sheltered from the wind. Blackpool Sands is one of our best things to do in Dartmouth.
To make Valentine’s Day truly special, take your loved one out on the golden sand as the sun begins to set. Watching the gentle waves ignite with the sunset as you sit nestled on the beach makes for a wonderful highlight on your Valentine’s chalet getaway.
