    “We loved everything about Galvayne and found it the perfect place to stay for the two of us.”

    The property on arrival was beautifully clean, everything as per the website photos, beautifully presented in all respects. The views were both exceptional and mesmerising. Having onsite parking was a huge benefit. Thank you for the welcome bottle of Sharpham wine which was delicious, so much so, we purchased several bottles from the very excellent Dartmouth Wines, along with others we discovered whilst dining out during our stay, so a good advertisement for the wine!

    The property on arrival was beautifully clean, everything as per the website photos, beautifully presented in all respects. The views were both exceptional and mesmerising. Having onsite parking was a huge benefit. Thank you for the welcome bottle of Sharpham wine which was delicious, so much so, we purchased several bottles from the very excellent Dartmouth Wines, along with others we discovered whilst dining out during our stay, so a good advertisement for the wine! A couple of small things: The little welcome box of treats included a small bag of Haribos, 3 tea bags and 3 coffee sticks/sugar sticks which felt a little half hearted. It would be useful to provide 2 extra black bin liners (only 1 spare provided) since it is a double bin in the kitchen area. We realise its self catering and always come prepared, but an extra bin liner would not go amiss. We put all our wine bottles in with the general paper recycling and hope this was ok for the contractors, we did notice that the property outside refuse bin had a number of glass beer bottles in it already, presumably left by a prior visitor.

The property

Built into the hillside of Dartmouth in South Devon is this marvellous three-storey, detached holiday home, Galvayne.

Boasting elegant, high-quality interiors and stunning views of the River Dart and Kingswear, Galvayne is the perfect choice for a couples holiday, sleeping four guests in two bedrooms.

Arrive to the delight of two parking spaces, a sought-after commodity in Dartmouth, before making your way down the steps to the first-floor entrance.

Find the utility room to the left before venturing into the first bedroom, a super-king-size suite with an en-suite bathroom, boasting a TV and Sonos speaker and double doors opening up to a standing balcony, providing the first glimpses of Galvayne's gorgeous outlook.

Stairs to the ground floor bring you to the handy cloakroom and the stylish open-plan living space where you can unwind amidst quality furnishings and more amazing vistas from the larger balcony, this one with seating, while a Smart TV offers entertainment in the sitting area, the dining area is a great space to socialise over food, and the sleek kitchen comes well-equipped with every appliance you could need as well as a breakfast bar.

Continue your journey through the property to the lower-ground floor to discover the second super-king-size bedroom, this one benefitted by an en-suite shower room, a TV and large bi-fold doors opening up to a large decked terrace with seating, a hotspot for socialising whilst admiring the picturesque, peaceful scenery of the water and Kingswear beyond.

Enjoy leaving your car at the property and walking into the heart of Dartmouth to browse the amazing collection of eateries and shops, from well-established restaurants serving fresh, locally caught seafood, to traditional pubs and independent shops, there's something for everyone.

Take strolls along the waterfront past Coronation Park and down to Dartmouth Marina to eye up the yachts, or catch a boat excursion from Dartmouth Harbour for an epic day out.

The passenger ferry over to Kingswear allows you to visit the other side of the river and take in the gorgeous Dartmouth scenery from another angle, with the South West Coast Path leading you east down to Brownstone Battery, continuing further along the scenic coastline and up to the National Trust's Coleton Fishacre House and Gardens.

Delve into Dartmouth's history at Dartmouth Castle, sitting proudly at the mouth of the Dart, as well as Bayard's Cove Fort and Dartmouth Museum.

For watersports and sunbathing, head down to Blackpool Sands, a Blue-Flag award-winning beach with a spotless reputation.

Enjoy splendour and style at Galvayne on your amazing holiday to South Devon.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

About the location

DARTMOUTH

Totnes 12 miles.

Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.

Due to the amount of stairs, this property is not suitable for those with mobility issues of any kind; the property has a first-floor entrance accessed via 9 external steps and extends down to a lower-ground floor.

The superking on the lower ground floor can be made into singles on request.
