Every picture on this website is taken from our office garden in Dartmouth in Devon, England
Views of Dartmouth as seen from our office. Living and working from home in Dartmouth, Devon we have an unrivalled vista. Not a day goes by without something of interest happening in front of us. Being a keen photographer I have been taking pictures from this one place for eight years and previously these were displayed on a Facebook page. As it’s our office and it’s in Dartmouth, it’s called The View From The Dartmouth Office. Now I have set up this dedicated website to replace the Facebook page and hopefully promote this lovely town as a place to come and live and work from home. There’s a long old learning curve about building a website, so bear with me as things progress. The site is 4 years old now and I’m still a novice. But if it’s photographs of Dartmouth you’re looking for, you’ve come to the right place. Pictures of Kingswear too. The sky, the river, the boats.
Most days produce pictures and so with luck the site will have an update each day adding new scenes. There are now quite a few specialised albums as well as the monthly diary type galleries. Gradually older photos are being added but captioning those takes time. Some of the older photographs already have captions which were done for the Facebook page, but Facebook mysteriously lost a load, so I’ll attempt to recall them or better still improve upon the info and humour.
Use the links at the top of the page to access the other picture albums, or click the pix and links on the right.
All photographs are copyright of Andy Kyle. But if you want to use a pic for a non-commercial website then please do, but please credit and link back to the home page of this site. And an email to say you have done it. No other use permitted without my expressed agreement.
This was not your normal sunrise. See it large in the September album.
Click the pic for lots more photos from September.
Or for a sunrise special, take a look at The Point of Sunrise
And click here for the photos from Regatta and here for August’s pictures.
If you’re a new visitor, take your time and look around. Click any of the big pix to go to the album of the month. Then there are albums of photos for 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010 and much of 2009. If you’re looking for double rainbows, click here. But don’t miss the Pick of TVFTDO.com. Go on, guess what TVFTDO stands for.
TheViewFromTheDartmouthOffice.com gets emails from all around the world from visitors to the site (thus far exceedingly complimentary). Marios wrote: “I believe you have the best office in the world man. It's like watching National Geographic every day, all day.”
Who am I to argue? Ian in Hobart said: “entering the Dart was like gliding into a 3D postcard filled with heritage, history and wall-to-wall nautical magic”
What a fabulous description of this marvelous place.

Can you believe it ? A couple of unnecessaries out on the river in December. To give them (minimal) credit, they did avoid serious fuel wastage until they were closish to the castles. Strange thing is, despite being 200 yards away I could clearly hear what they were saying (okay, shouting) to each other. It was nothing interesting. But you knew that.

A rather eventful few days on the weather front
Up to date info from the people wot know.
Chatty, informative and very current.

The builders have had a few days off. And across Kingswear and Dartmouth, there’s enough of them.

The end of Waterhead Creek looking up towards the Dragon House.

Apologies to all who saw this labelled in the Daily Mirror as Dartmouth. My caption and conscience was clear - I said this was a picture of Kingswear from Dartmouth. Simple if you know the place. But I guess I had better take some of the blame and be more clear next time.

Up here in Above Town we like to think of ourselves as pristine. The road certainly was.

It’s different. And it’s rather fine. But then Dartmouth always is.

Inverdart, looking even prettier than usual.

After the overnight fall, the sun had a brief attempt at a show, but gave up until late in the day.

Er, the Lower Ferry was slow to get going. But then, a car had to be able to get to the slipway.

No caption error here. This is the mighty fine Noodles.

The boat is not actually in the pic, but as you can seen the chaps on the Higher Ferry service were up and running very early.
Either that or someone was hoping the river had iced over.

The evening after the day before. Under the sun, all looks well.

And then The Times did the same with this shot.

This was from the first drop we had a few weeks ago. Shades of Doctor Zhivago.

This was also from the earlier fall. But Mark the postie got through.
