Holiday Itinerary
Day 1: We travel to our hotel.
Day 2: We travel north to visit Topsham and a delightful cruise on the River Exe followed by a scenic rail journey. Once a thriving port Topsham is now a pretty maritime town with a mix of fascinating architecture, from 17th and 18th century Dutch style merchants' houses to antique tea shops and pubs.
Day 3: A local guide will join the group for a full day excursion through the beautiful scenery of Dartmoor. Guides will have their preferred routes and stopping points but the tour will include the ancient market town of Tavistock, an opportunity to view Buckfast Abbey (cost not included) and hopefully views of the lovely wild ponies for which Dartmoor is famous.
Day 4: A Day at leisure. For those wishing to spend time in Torquay, the hotel offer a transfer service for guests.
Day 5: Homeward bound.
