Day One: Arrival

After being picked up from your home, we depart south to our base for the next 4 nights.

Day Two

This morning we head south to the coastal resort of Torquay where we have time to look around - exploring the harbour and the town centre. In the afternoon we make the short journey to Paignton where the afternoon is free for you to discover the town at your own pace or enjoy a stroll along the seafront.

Day Three

After breakfast this morning we make our journey to the historic coastal town of Sidmouth. It was Sidmouth that captivated the Poet Laureate, John Betjeman - and it will captivate you too. Beautiful gardens and leisurely walks, Regency history, clean beaches and friendly shops… it's all here in this lovely seaside town that nestles beneath majestic red cliffs and the green hills of the glorious Sid Valley. Later we visit the famous Donkey Sanctuary. The history of how this was set up is amazing. You can listen to the talks explaining all about the sanctuary and how they work with other countries all over the world. It's a must visit Devonshire attraction!

Day Four

Today we enjoy a scenic drive through the beautiful Dartmoor National Park. Keep an eye out for the wild Dartmoor ponies as we travel to Princetown where we have some time to explore. We continue on through the National Park to make our lunchtime stop in Tavistock - the historic market town and birthplace of Sir Francis Drake. You are free to look around the town at leisure and grab a bite to eat. In the afternoon we head to Okehampton with a Victorian shopping arcade, a museum, a lovely park and the second oldest Norman Castle in the county to explore.

Day Five

After breakfast, we start the journey home.

Langstone Cliff Hotel

The Rogers family have been welcoming guests to Langstone Cliff since 1947 and the hotel is still owned and managed by the second and third generation. The deeds of the Langstone Cliff Hotel were lost in the blitz of Exeter during the Second World War and consequently no accurate details of the history are easily available. It was believed to have been built originally around the late 1700s and there is a painting, at present in the Lincoln Bar, showing the house in the background, dating from about that time. Rating 4: The resort is generally level. The hotel is on the level but there are a few isolated steps. The lift serves all floors.
