Paignton   |   Totnes   |   Sidmouth   |   Tewkesbury Abbey         

 

DAY ONE – Arrival

Join us on an exciting journey from your doorstep as we head south, destined for the beautiful town of Paignton. Along the way, we'll make leisurely stops for your comfort. Arrive at your hotel with plenty of time to unwind before dinner this evening.

 

DAY TWO - Paignton

Take a well-deserved break and recharge your batteries with a day at leisure to relax. One of the brightest jewels in the English Riviera’s crown, Paignton has a long stretch of beautiful and easily accessible beachfront, promenade, traditional pier, colourful beach huts and green. What's great about Paignton is that it is a compact resort, with the seafront and town centre shops all within close proximity.

 

DAY THREE – Totnes

We visit Totnes on the River Dart. A unique and charming historic market town that combines breathtakingly beautiful countryside with a fascinating history. By the 12th Century Totnes had established itself as a market town and prospered throughout the medieval period. In recent times it has gained a reputation as a centre for learning, arts, alternative lifestyles, and culture. Much of Totnes’ fascinating history can be seen around the town, there are many historic buildings lining the streets, the atmospheric Guildhall which has been the home of the town council for over 450 years not forgetting the Norman motte and bailey castle which overlooks the town. 

 

A trip to Totnes is not complete without a visit to the Brutus Stone, which can be found in Fore Street, set into the pavement. This stone is meant to mark the spot where Trojan Prince, Brutus, disembarked from his ship. As he stepped ashore on to the stone he said “Here I stand, and here I rest. The town shall be called Totnes”. We arrive back to our hotel with time to relax before dinner this evening.

 

DAY FOUR - Sidmouth

After breakfast today we travel to Sidmouth, with its red sandstone cliff which dates to the Triassic period.  You have the day at leisure here, why not take a stroll along Millennium Walkway which stretches the length of the beach or relax in the stylish café’s and watch the world go by. We’ll then return to our hotel mid-afternoon when you have time to relax before dinner this evening. There is also the option of a theatre evening.
