Parking

Railway

Regrettably we do not have a customer car park at Paignton or Kingswear.

At Paignton there are a number of local car parks to choose from. Just click on the car parks links below for details.

All the above are operated by Torbay Council - weekly car park tickets can be obtained from local Tourist Information Centres.

The only car park at Kingswear is the Darthaven Marina car park (postcode TQ6 0AA) and it is very limited. This car park is privately owned and charges apply.

River Boats & Buses

Dartmouth Embankment (postcode TQ6 9BH). Park and Ride available (postcode TQ6 9LW) - situated at the top of Dartmouth on the A3122 opposite Sainsbury's. There is a short-stay car park in the town centre (postcode TQ6 9NF), (maximum of 3 hours), opposite the Embankment. The town centre car park is owned by South Hams District Council.

Totnes Steamer Quay (postcode TQ9 5AL). There is plenty of all day parking here but the two car parks are owned by South Hams District Council, so charges apply. Check their website for current prices or you can telephone to make payment by card.  Please Note : unfortunately our kiosk staff are unable to supply coinage for car parking.

Reviews

  • Sunny days - The river cruise was a delight, such a fun and knowledgeable crew member giving the commentary, really is a must if visiting the area.
  • Excellent. Recommended. - Numbers on board restricted due to Covid, but it didn't spoil our enjoyment. The Round Robin three-in-one ticket is a must do if you are in the area.
  • Steam train - Great little day out - highly recommended. The boat trip up the dart was very good with the captain guiding us and the steam train was great for kids too.
