Proper good fish and chips! Deffo worth a ride over to Paignton! I’d actually say they’re possibly the best chips I’ve ever had… your waistline may not thank you but I think they’re worth the sacrifice… just means a few more lengths in the swimming pool 🤷🏻♀️😆

There is North and a South sands, which are separate from the town itself. Parking can be interesting so an early start is recommend.

With Staverton station just a 5 min walk from the apartment, this really is a must! Head in one direction along the river dart to tones where you will stop right next to Totnes rare breeds farm… and only a 10 min walk from there to town. Or head in the other direction to Buckfastleigh where there is the otter sanctuary, butterfly farm and buckfast abbey!
Check out their website for times and to book tickets online. It’s deffo possible to visit the otter/butterfly place and the rare breeds farm in one day and I believe you can get tickets for both via South Devon Railway

30 mins drive from the apartment, free car parking just opposite… Absolutely breathtaking views, and even better views if you can brave climbing right to the top! Lovely to walk about the old quarry too and fabulous spot to view the stunning Devonshire sunset
