Torquay

With its palm tree-lined promenade, sandy beaches, and charming marina, Torquay is a great destination for anyone seeking a quintessential English seaside experience.

One of the town's most notable attractions is its lively harbour, where you can watch fishing boats come and go and sample the freshest seafood at the local restaurants. From there, you can take a stroll along the scenic seafront and explore the colourful gardens that line the way.

Torquay is also home to a number of cultural attractions, including the Torquay Museum, which boasts a fascinating collection of local history and artefacts, and the Agatha Christie Mile, a self-guided walking tour that takes you through the famous author's favourite local spots.

For nature enthusiasts, the nearby Dartmoor National Park offers breathtaking landscapes, picturesque villages, and ample opportunities for hiking, cycling, and wildlife spotting.
