Dogs welcome
A perfect holiday is one that all the family enjoy together - and we know your dog is considered part of the family. :) Besides, we believe dogs should have just as much fun as the rest of us! The Dartmouth Steam Railway & River Boat Company are very much dog friendly - we understand how important our four legged friends are and that they should come on holiday too.
Well behaved dogs are more than welcome on all of our trips for a nominal fee of £3 per dog.
Important Note: Sorry, only registered disability assistance dogs allowed on the Train of Lights.
However, as a responsible dog owner, we know you'll understand when we ask you to adhere to the following;
- Keep your dog on a lead at all times.
- Do not allow your dog to sit on our seats (includes, train, boat, ferry and bus services).
- Always 'pick up' after your dog.

Reviews
- Atmospheric steam train - We took the steam train from Paignton to Kingswear and then the ferry to Dartmouth (inc in the ticket). It was a trip back in time and most enjoyable, despite the very rainy weather! Good value for money.
- Lovely trip - The steam railway train is brilliant, the iconic click-clacking of the train was enjoyable to listen to and and the train ride had stunning views. The short ferry was also lovely (only about a minute or two).
- All lovely - All done very well. Everything clean (train/boats), staff friendly and commentary on the river cruise added a bit of fun. Really good day out, lots of families. Take hats, drinks and dogs! If you have one.
