We have holidayed in this chalet over the last eight years and that says it all .From booking with Katie to the presentation of the chalet's cleanliness on arrival is absolutely top class .The site is well looked after in its surroundings both garden and grass and ample parking very near to your chalet .It suits us ,being of more mature years ,very well as it is a a good jumping off point to Paignton and Brixham also Dartmouth ,but you do need to be motorised as you are not on a main bus route . All in all and good health we shall return next year



Fabulous holiday

What a lovely little bungalow.
Very basic but everything you need and a great base to venture of during the day. The garden is a little suntrap.
There are lovely walks on your doorstep and the little dog field was very useful.
Unfortunately the Internet wasn't working and our neighbours were having the same problems so I put it down to a fault, although the Internet all over Devon isn't great. I could have rung to get it fixed but actually it was a nice to have a break from everything and just enjoy the lovely, quiet surroundings.
My only criticism is it might be worth having the hot water turned on for when guests arrive, it took us a little while to work out where the switch was and then had to wait for the water to heat up but that is only a small niggle.
We had a lovely holiday and hope to be back soon.
Thanks

Dart Vale is in an excellent position for going anywhere, it is nice and central to a lot of places namely Torquay, Paignton, Brixham and other surrounding areas. Dog friendly too. We found Dart Vale very clean with everything we needed including Wi-Fi. The only negative we had was, in our opinion, it needs updating.



Lovely peaceful holiday rebook for next yr

We have stayed in other bungalows before, and enjoyed our stay at Dart Vale. The decor and facilities were great, and worked well for us plus a dog, to care for my mum who lives in the village. Not quite a river view, sadly!

Only downside is the lack of heating, which leaves the bungalow damp throughout. The chalet isnt any cheaper than others that have regular heating included in the price, and electricity has to be paid for through a meter. The towel rail, for instance, doesnt really dry the towels, and it is too cold in October to open the windows all the time.

Probably lovely in the summer.

We have now visited here 5 times and intend, health permitting, to keep going back". Dart Vale" suits our requirements very well as does the Bungalow site which is well kept. We have never had to complain about anything at all not even the weather. If you need a quiet holiday, choice of bungalows and good access to enjoy Torbay and the South Hams this the place

My wife, me and our dog Willow (old English Sheepdog) stayed at Dart Vale The first two weeks of September 2022. We have stayed there before and as before the place was spotless and everything we needed was there, even tea, coffee and milk for when we arrived. We like staying in Galmpton as we use it for our base with so many places to visit and our dog loves Goodrington Sands. Unfortunately, we think the bungalow is looking a little tired. Wallpaper in some places is coming away from the wall, the furniture is looking dated and is uncomfortable, some of the radiators are going rusty and the toilet seat needs changing as it is stained. Sorry for some of the negatives but we still had a brilliant holiday.
