About Stephen Jones
We bought Clover Cottage in August 2011 and turned it into a 3 double bedroom family house.We use the cottage whenever we can during winter & summer months with our family & friends. The cottage is a fantastic base for us to visit all of the South Devon Coast & inland to Dartmoor. We have been visiting the Devon Coastline for 40 years on holidays. 15 years ago we found Galmpton & Dartmouth & the River Dart. Dartmouth is a very busy town especially in the summer months so when we found Galmpton which is a quiet village we decided to buy Clover Cottage.
Stephen Jones purchased this cottage in 2011
Why Stephen Jones chose Torbay
We fell in love with Clover Cottage because of its location in the quiet village of Galmpton. The cottage is well placed for people who rent for walking to nearby towns and villages or driving and sightseeing. You can park your car and not use it again till you go home. There are plenty of walks depending how far you want to go. We always want to explore the River Dart and the cottage is 10min walk to the trail which can be followed for miles or take your car on the winding country roads.

Super holiday home in an ideal spot.
Had a great winter break at the Cottage for half term. The owners have made it very cosy with a log fire, beautiful kitchen area comfy furnishings. Great pub along the way and a few minutes walk to the creek and the Ferry Boat Inn at Dittisham. Easy drive into Torbay or Dartmouth. We shall go again.
Excellent
The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped and ideally situated for a choice of beaches, two national trust properties (one within a lovely 20 minute walk), beautiful coastal walks, the interesting towns of Totnes, Dartmouth and Torquay, steam trains and several sea or river boat trips. The village has an excellent shop/post office, a superb butcher and a lovely pub which also provides good food. The cottage has 3 double bedrooms which are of a good size but with only one bathroom and loo and the kitchen really not big enough for 6 I would say that 2 - 4 people are ideal, 6 might be a bit of a squeeze at times! The garden is small but ideal to sit out in and delightful. It was a perfect place for just my wife and I for a restful two week stay.
Our 6th time at this fantastic cottage
We always have a great time in Glampton, the cottage is well furnished and equipped but for us its all about location location location.
Good as a base to traveler from but also just a happy to stop in by the fire watching movies.
Fantastic cottage
Clean, well equipped cottage. lovely village location with a good shop and great village pub.
Quiet and comfortable cottage
First impressions were excellent, really clean and welcoming place. A brilliant base for a holiday on the 'English riviera'. We had a great time, the local butchers are well worth a visit (take the dog if you've got one!) and the local pub serves great food. It's a nice walk to the Dartmouth ferry and the steam train from Dartmouth drops you close enough to walk back.
All in all a lovely place to stay.
Home from Home
We had a wonderful holiday the weather was warm and the Cottage is absolutely lovely. Could not fault it in any way. Everything you need is there. Very spacious and very comfortable including the beds. Will definately go back.
