Galmpton is a lovely village between Paignton and Brixham, bordering on a creek to the the river Dart. Galmpton has a large area of common grassland on its perimeter which most visitors see when they first approach the village travelling from Paignton. The village has many attractive privately owned properties, some quite old as it was populated many centuries ago. The heart of the village is positioned in a small basin like area near to the creek with single track roads feeding out on all sides leading to villages and seaside resorts of Paignton and Brixham and inland to Totnes and further up the Dart to Stoke Gabriel.
