This single-storey chalet is the ideal base for exploring the nearby River Dart and surrounding Devonshire countryside. Surrounded by picturesque villages and close to large Torbay towns, couples or small families and their canine companion can enjoy a romantic outdoorsy break in this bungalow.

The open-plan living, dining and kitchen space is a sociable area for cooking, eating and relaxing whilst planning your action-packed day ahead. Sit down to a spot of brunch or dinner at the breakfast bar, perfectly set for two. Alternatively, for a romantic evening in, sit down to dinner in the lounge area in front of TV/DVD. A cosy double bedroom offers plenty of space for two to unpack and unwind after a long day, and there’s also a small single room, ideal for a child. A patio at the front of the property has outdoor furniture for enjoying the last of the evening sun.

Just over half a mile from the River Dart, you’re never far from rural riverside walking and cycling routes, or fishing spots for keen anglers. Be sure to visit the beautiful Greenway House and Garden only 1 mile away, where you can relax in the beloved home of author Agatha Christie. Head 3 miles out to the coast to visit the fishing town of Brixham, where you can enjoy some glorious freshly caught seafood in a range of restaurants and fish and chip shops, whilst taking a long walk along St Mary’s Bay and Breakwater Beach. Fancy staying a little closer to home? The local area of Galmpton (0.5 miles) is an idyllic rural village with a couple of local pubs, perfect for a pint or a bite to eat.

It was very cosy & everything you could need was there. The bed was very comfortable. The only thing & this is not a complaint was a parasol for sitting outside in the sun would have been nice. It was lovely & clean & quiet. & well situated for everything you wanted to do.

A lovely property in a fab location & the neighbours are very friendly. A perfect place to explore the area plus Galmpton Village & local pub are delightful. Almost everywhere is dog friendly & our Cavapoo Penny loved it. Dog friendly beaches are great, particularly the one in Brixham. Coleton Fishacre is stunning and is a 'must see!' We were so luRead morecky with the weather so had a fantastic week & would definitely come here again. Thanks X Hide

Second time my daughter and I have stayed here. Location is perfect for Brixham (10 mins) and Paignton (10-15). Its quiet in the evening with little to no noise on site. The cottage is great and had all the things we needed. I'm sure we will come again.

'Tranquility', on a friendly , quiet site, suited me perfectly as a solo female traveller with a dog. Although the garden isn't secure, it's fine for early and late visits. There's a dog area on the site, though again, not secure. The bungalow was small - as clear from the photos - but well-maintained and comfortable, with a pleasant patio at the fRead moreront. It was good value with no extra charge for electricity in October. There's plenty to do in the area, without the need to travel miles. Hide

We spent a fantastic 6 nights here. The location is perfect for trips into Brixham, Paignton and Torquay. With three supermarkets within a 10 minute drive. There is a small beach on the river Dart, only a 10 minute stroll away, well worth a visit. The cottage was very clean, had everything we needed and the beds are very comfortable. Great value foRead morer money, and the owner was very kind and helpful. Hide

Comfortable base in a fantastic location. We were able to walk out for many days out or just a short drive for others. Village has a decent pub, good shop and butchers. Cottage had everything we needed, was clean and had a view of the river. Owner was helpful and seemed to live locally. Allocated parking was useful. We had a great week!
