Teignmouth (.8 miles)
Teignmouth has all the attractions of a seaside town, including a Victorian pier, together with the fascinating activity of a working port - large ships, fishing vessels and pleasure craft move between the sea and the estuary.

Dawlish (3.4 miles)
Once a busy resort in Georgian and Victorian times, Dawlish now has a tranquil, relaxed feel. Some fine period architecture adds to the classic English seaside atmosphere and Dawlish has some very pretty ‘civic’ spaces – the Lawn is a public park that provides a beautifully green heart to the town through which a shallow river known as Dawlish Water runs, heading for the nearby sea in a series of small waterfalls; throughout the evening, coloured fairy lights along this waterway create a little magic for strollers.

Newton Abbot (4.5 miles)
Newton Abbot has a long, rich history in many different trades, from wool and leather in medieval times to the locomotive industry in the Victorian era. All have left their mark on the town, which has an interesting architectural legacy, including plenty of well-preserved, imposing Victorian buildings. Now, Newton Abbot is more geared towards leisure; a much-loved race course, no less than three public parks and England’s only traditional malthouse that is open to the public – and yes, you can sample the ales!

Torquay (4.6 miles)
Elegant Victorian architecture, a series of wide, crescent beaches and a backdrop of seven hills encircling the town – it’s hardly surprising that Torquay has been such a popular holiday resort for generations. This is the English Riviera at its most classic and the best way to enjoy it is to stroll along the palm-lined promenade, ice cream in hand, watching the sea lap the shore.

Shaldon (.5 miles)
Shaldon is an unspoilt village situated on the mouth of the river Teign between Torquay and Teignmouth. It has a thriving livelyhood based on the estuary. On a clear day, Portland Bill can even be seen despite being 50 miles away. A pretty village with 2 churches, a boutique, butcher, coffee shop and many conserved areas for all to enjoy.
