Joanna was an absolutely delightful host and we appreciated the basket of treats and the fresh milk. The beds were so comfortable and we had everything we needed. The kitchenette was fine for us as we were out most of the time and it didn’t bother us at all that there was no sitting room. Fantastic location with a bay perfect for paddle boarding and swimming a minutes walk in one direction and the rather lovely Royal William Yard a minutes walk in the other direction. Recommend the bagel place.

Joana was a wonderful host. We were greeted very warmly by her and received plenty of helpful tips for possible trips in and around Plymouth. She also was continiously available via WhatsApp in case of any questions. The apartment was very clean and perfectly located, with restaurants nearby at the marina. For breakfast, there were some cereals available as well as a coffee machine and some Nespresso pods. Our car was safely parked on the property close to the appartement. We felt very comfortable throughout our stay. Thanks a lot …

Superb location. Superb host. We thought The Mount was really good value - and it exceeded our expectations - don't think for one minute you are getting anything cheap - you are not. The price reflects the owners kindness. Joanna, her husband and friends all extended a warm welcome - in fact - I haven't quite experienced anything like it - and communication was spot on. We have no complaints at all. The location is superb - we went everywhere, even hopping over to Cornwall on the ferry. You do not have to move your car once you park it if you don't want to - everything you could want for a coastal get a way right on your door step. We were sad to leave. Whoever goes next - I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

We had a wonderful stay at The Mount. We arrived late after a long drive down from Scotland but Joanna was there to greet us and was a very friendly, welcoming host. We were made to feel right at home straight away. The property and location was perfect for us as a family of 3, with secure parking and easy access to Royal William yard. We look forward to visiting again.

We loved our 3 night stay here. The location was perfect, with the royal William yard a stones throw away & views of the marina. The accomodation had everything we needed for a short stay & our host couldn’t have been more friendly & helpful. We’ll definitely be returning.

Beautiful accommodation and perfect location

Hosts Joanna and Andrew very friendly and welcoming and couldn’t be more helpful to make our stay perfect. The accommodation was ideal for what we wanted and being next door to so many restaurants was a bonus. We stayed during the recent heatwave and the accommodation stayed reasonable cool under the extreme heat. Looking forward to staying again.

About the host

Hosted by Joanna Jeffery

Host profile image
My husband and I have been hosts to actors visiting Plymouth for some 20 years when we lived in our Georgian house. We know only too well that you want a clean, warm, pleasant place to stay which is private and quiet. We are here to help if you need us - but we are also aware that you are on your holiday and we do not encroach on your space.
In 2019 we built 'The Mount' which is where we now live having sold our old house. The two-bed accommodation being offered to you is on the ground-floor of the new house and completely separate.
My career has been as a teacher of children with aspects of dyslexia. I ran my own business having created a reading resource for children that is based on playing card games and having fun and yet it is a professional reading scheme
My husband is a keen golfer so if you would like any information on the several courses around here he will be able to help.

Why they chose this property

This is an opportunity to stay in a new-build property with clean and fresh bedrooms.

The amazing air exchange system gives clean fresh air 24/7. I have been astonished at its efficiency - no stale air, all fresh with the same temp air coming in as going out - but fresh - it is wonderful.

The underfloor heating system works throughout the property - meaning warm tiles and walking around barefooted is a real pleasure.

As for the location and area in general it really is wonderful. We moved to this area 25 yrs ago and realised how much it had to offer - so much so that we sold the house and built the new house in the grounds.

Apart from being right by the sea and the Royal William Yard we are a short drive from masses of beautiful beaches in Devon and Cornwall. Dartmoor is only a twenty min drive away. But in addition we are in a city postcode, meaning access to everything Plymouth has to offer being a 20min walk, a direct bus twice an hour or a foot ferry twice an hour.

It is an astonishing area offering so much.

What makes this property unique

The Mount is right outside the historic Grade 1 listed naval victualling yard - Royal William Yard now with all its bars restaurants, winebars and open air entertainment during the summer. There are monthly farmers market, open air concerts and plays, jazz and folk music at weekends. There is also water sports in the form of SUPs (Stand Up Paddle boarding. The RWY Ferry goes half hourly to the Barbican.

The Barbican has the aquarium, Mayflower Steps, Plymouth Gin Distillery, restaurants, bars and several interesting shops - art and antiques included. There is a foot ferry to two villages, Cawsand and Kingsand, with beaches and pubs across the River Tamar in Cornwall. These villages can also be reached via a small passenger ferry a couple of hundred metres from the property and then a very pleasant walk of approximately 90 minutes. Alternatively you can take a bus which meets the ferry hourly at Cremyll.
