Galmpton Touring Park

We have made many noticeable improvements on the park, and we aim to continue improvements where required, to make your stay even more enjoyable.Having a south and westerly aspect, we benefit from the sun throughout the day and our 10 acres or so of gently sloping Devonshire countryside enjoy spectacular views of the River Dart and surrounding countryside.Galmpton offers a quiet, convenient base from which families and couples alike can visit Torbay and the South Hams’ many attractions, explore the beautiful South Hams or just sit back, relax and enjoy the outstanding view with a barbeque and a nice glass of local Sharpham wine!Situated on the edge of Galmpton village, the park is only a short walk from the local shops which include a Post Office / general store, an excellent butcher and a country pub with fine ales, or take a five minute ferry trip for great home made food, local wines and ales at the Ferry Boat Inn. The park is excellently situated for many varied public transport routes, which means you never really need to take a vehicle with you unless you wish to. The local bus route & steam train station are just a short walk from the park, and there are also ferry routes from Greenway Quay, just over a mile’s walk from the park. Dartmouth, Brixham, Torquay, Paignton, Totnes and Dittisham are all very easily accessible.The SiteGalmpton Touring Park is set in the most beautiful and spectacular part of South Devon, with views over the broadest reaches of the River Dart, occupying a delightful rural position in a quiet and private location, with pitches arranged to take maximum advantage of the view.Central to Brixham, Paignton, Torquay, Totnes and Dartmouth, the Park is terraced to provide level pitch areas.
