Pet-friendly summary
Seaview Nest is a compact seaside apartment in Stoke Fleming, a village just outside Dartmouth on the South Devon coast. With sea views, a bright kitchen and beaches, the coastal path, shops and a village pub all within a short walk or drive, it makes a cosy base for a couple or a solo traveller with one dog exploring this stretch of the Jurassic Coast.
Dogs are allowed, and the experience guests report is genuinely mixed. Several visitors travelling with a dog had a lovely stay, describing the apartment as cosy and comfortable, ideal for one or two people and a dog, and praising the quiet setting and easy access to the sea. The owner is often mentioned as pleasant and helpful with local tips.
Other guests with dogs were less comfortable. A recurring point is the pet fee: some booked expecting no extra charge for a dog and were surprised to find one applied, so it is worth confirming the current pet terms directly before you book. A small number also felt the welcome for their dog was more closely supervised than they had hoped, and the odd guest has flagged cleanliness details on arrival.
As a self-contained apartment with its own space and no shared corridors, it works well for a dog who prefers a quiet stay, and it suits a single, well-behaved dog rather than a larger pet or more than one.
Best suited to a couple or solo traveller with one small-to-medium dog who want a quiet seaside base near Dartmouth and are happy to confirm the pet fee up front.
