Torquay & Devon Delights – Turkey & Tinsel
Itinerary
Day 1 - Arrival
After joining the coach, we make our way to our hotel and check in. We enjoy light entertainment every evening before our evening meal together.
Day 2 - Dawlish & Teignmouth
Our included half-day excursion takes us first to Dawlish, a quaint and friendly resort that was once a tiny fishing village until the Victorian Railway Age turned it into a thriving seaside town. It nestles between striking red sandstone cliffs overlooking a sandy beach, with the railway still running right alongside the seafront. We then make our way to Teignmouth, a handsome estuary town which has the benefits of a bustling harbour as well as the classic attractions of a seaside resort. It boasts an elegant Georgian crescent, promenade and Victorian pier with fine views across the bay.
Day 3 - Optional excursion to Exeter (£16pp)
Join us on our optional excursion to the vibrant city of Exeter, considered the capital of Devon. Small in size, it still has plenty to offer thanks to its rich and long history. The beautiful and historic quayside area offers an eclectic mix of antique shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs and bars and is also a lovely place for a riverside stroll.
Exeter Cathedral is the city's main landmark and one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture, with the longest uninterrupted Gothic vaulted ceiling in the world. With a great range of independent shops and boutiques plus a vibrant arts scene, there's much to discover in this attractive city in the heart of Devon.
Day 4 - Brixham
This morning, we head to Brixham, an attractive port with colourful fisher cottages on the surrounding hillsides. Explore the winding streets, snug with bustling arcades and gift shops. The horseshoe harbour is well worth a look too, being home to a replica of Sir Francis Drake's ship, the Golden Hind.
Day 5 - Return Home
After breakfast, we check out of our hotel and head for home.
