Historically, Dartmouth was of strategic importance as a port used in the crusades of 1147 and 1190. Dominated by Britannia Royal Naval College, it has two fortified castles protecting the mouth of the River Dart. There are many historical buildings, a cobbled market place, shops, galleries, gourmet restaurants and delicatessens. National Trust Gardens, the South West Coast Path and clean beaches are nearby.
A classic English harbour town with pastel coloured fishermen's cottages clinging to the hill in crooked rows. There's a swanky marina complete with restaurants and bars, a choice of beaches and a saltwater outdoor swimming pool. The beautiful coastline here can be explored either by foot on the coast paths or by taking a trip on the Brixham Belle', which sails to Dartmouth, Paignton and Torquay.
Situated between the costal towns of Totnes and Dartmouth, this lovely little village can be found down a maze of winding country lanes. It's worth a visit to see the historic church and enjoy the scenery from local footpaths.
