    “Simply stunning”
    Reviewed 19 June 2017 for a stay in June 2017

    Situated in The Royal William yard, this is a simply stunning apartment, beautifully furnished it was an absolute delight to return to at the end of a day exploring. Everything you could possibly need to make a great holiday was catered for. Even if the weather had been bad (which it wasn't) there was plenty to entertain guests. A choice of Restaurants are steps away and there is a local bus to take you into Plymouth city or Barbican and a ferry across to Mount Edgecumbe was also on the doorstep. Quite simply the best apartment we have stayed in, with amazing views and sunsets. We will definitely be rebooking, we really didn't want to leave.

    “Room with a view”
    Reviewed 9 June 2016 for a stay in May 2016

    We stayed at Admiral's View for my husband's 60th birthday. On arrival we had a lovely welcome by Jo who showed us around the apartment and gave us lots of tips about places to visit and local restaurants.
    There are several good quality restaurants at Royal Williams Yard, our favourites were Pierre's and Wildwood. We enjoyed the ferry rides to both Plymouth Barbican and Mount Edgecumbe via the Cremyll ferry which was well worth a visit.
    The apartment was first class with a fantastic view, located at the entrance to the naval port at Devonport, with the Royal Navy ships sailing past out balcony!!!!
    Can thoroughly recommend this apartment as a holiday with a beautiful view.

    “Amazing apartment”
    Reviewed 4 April 2016 for a stay in March 2016

    My husband and I stayed with here for 4 nights with 2 young children. We were amazed at how lovely and big the apartment was. Sea views were amazing. The place was well equiped with everything we needed. Location was spot on for convenience e.g. restaurants, ferry, walks. Jo was fab at the meet and greet.

    There are 2 set of stairs to get to the apartment and we were made aware of this prior to booking. Also you have a parking space, although we did get a splatter of bird poo on the car as expected I guess when you are staying so close to the sea.

    Definitely would stay again if we come to visit Plymouth.

    This was our second Christmas at Admiral's View. It was very good, as was the first. The apartment is ultra modern, very comfortable, and has everything you might need. Views from the balcony are ever changing as the tide swirls past, and the Cremyll ferry leaves from close by so a trip to Cornwall is easy. This year we used the Torpoint ferry, which is also close.

    The Royal WilliamYard has several restaurants to suit your mood, and at Christmas we found it quiet and peaceful. There is allocated parking. There are supermarkets nearby, and the city centre is not far.

    The stairs at the end of the yard form part of the south west coast path and there are fantastic views of Drake's island and Plymouth sound.

    Highly recommended.
