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.

The rather elegant superyacht Spiip (not exactly an elegant name) departed after a short Dartmouth stay.

Almost invisible in the centre of the the river was this little family.
Take a look inside the May album to see just how close to disaster they came.

Looking very like Lord and Lady Muck. Would you believe they are 120 years old ?
(These are friends and they know I don’t mean it. Mind you, they really are 120 years old)

Definitely an eye in the sky.

If you really think you need elevation for a decent view over this valley.......

This chap seems to be checking things out. Before he flew in through our patio doors and made er, quite a mess before being directed out.

It was quite an ace idea. A learner paddleboarder tried to hone his balance by standing on the buoy.
It was working a treat until...........

Mesmerising and ever changing. The sea mist was quite simply spectacular for much of the morning on Saturday.
There are loads more pix of this inside. Just click the pic and you will enter the album for June.

A plethora of helicopter activity at the College late into the night. Challenging for picture taking.
Probably not as challenging as landing a Chinook in the dark though.

I do believe that’s the Dartmouth Picnic Boat out there.

It was the combination of the bright sun with the mist that made it so beautiful.

We’ve had some rather fine flypasts this last week (a Spitfire, the Red Arrows, Chinooks etc - you can find them inside) but nothing will beat this flyby. You’ll believe a mouse can fly. The villain of the piece is a buzzard by the way.
