Living with Host
You can use the kitchen. Tea and coffee are included. There's space to store some food in the fridge and freezer.
There's WiFi to use.
The double room has blackout curtains.
There will be garden access soon.
Guest Parking
I live in a cul de sac so although nearly everyone has a car my guests can nearly always find a space to park. I'm one of those people who do not run a car so there's quite often a space outside my house. Alternatively you can find a space in Devonport Road.
The Area and Transport
My home is just over a mile from the theatre so it's about a thirty minute walk to get there. There are several different routes you can take. I'm in a conservation area and a five minute walk from Devonport Park where I do some volunteer gardening. It's a delightful place to walk if you want to unwind.
You can also walk to Mount Wise which is a fifteen minute walk and gives you some wonderful outlooks over the river Tamar to Mount Edgcumbe.
There is a small convenience store across Devomport road, about a three minute walk.Theres also a Coop in Stoke Village, a ten minute walk and Lidl and Aldi in Union Street which would take you about 20 minutes to walk.
I live in a quiet area so as well as comfortable beds you'll also have a peaceful neighbourhood for a good night's sleep.
There are regular buses going into the city from here including the 33,14, 21 and 70 which is not so regular. You'd need to check Plymouthbus website for last buses.

A delightful place to stay. The room was cosy and really nicely furnished. Val was a very welcoming host and provided all the necessities. I would definitely stay here again.

Gorgeous house with a view of the sea in the distance! Val is the perfect host.
28th May 2017
I loved staying here - the house was beautiful and Val was a perfect balance of being friendly, and helpful whilst still giving you privacy! The only small downside was the 25 minute walk to the theatre, but I would definitely stay here again!
19th May 2017
Lovely room, with a lovely host. I felt very comfortable during my stay here with Val. I walked to the theatre each day which took about 25 minutes but didn't feel very safe walking back a night alone so would get a taxi which wasn't very costly.
20th Sep 2016
What a lovely house, host and room would definitely stay there again.
Thank you x
23rd Nov 2015
Lovely room with the most comfortable bed I've had on tour yet.
Val is a superb host & the house has a great layout for your own privacy.
The walk is an easy 25min safe walk.
Would definitely use again.
7th Jul 2015
I would highly recommend staying here if you are in Plymouth.
I stayed in the single room which was lovely with a sea view! More than big enough for me.
The walk into town is about 25 mins, probably too far if you are not into walking.
Val is a wonderful host who gives you privacy and if you like cats 'Angel' is a treat!
5th Jul 2015
Very nice stay with Val in a very nice house.
Comfortable bed and all very clean.
I found the walk into the Theatre Royal a bit long and ended up getting the bus in during the day and taking a taxi home in the evening which costs £6 from the theatre area.
25th Sep 2014
Lovely stay in a great house with a brilliant landlady.
Felt very comfortable and because of the layout of the house enjoyed having my own space and privacy.
Thank you Val.
Hope to be staying again soon x
