Mild ocean breezes, sandy beaches and swaying palm trees lining the roads, give the small English town of Torquay a distinctively Mediterranean feel. With a warm microclimate and loads  of little  beaches and coves, this seaside resort in the south west of England is so idyllic, it’s known as the English Riviera. With two scheduled outings, one to

Brixham, a beautiful South Devon harbour fishing town with historic sites and scenic coastal views. 

                                          Known for the angel wing trail through the town, to honour the 100 lives lost in the great gale

                                          of 1866. 

                                          The other to Sidmouth, hidden in plain view along the beautiful 

                                          Jurassic Coast and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It's a seaside 

                                          town like no other, with a regency feel which is ideal for visitors 

                                          of all ages. Sat in the middle of spectacular countryside it's home

                                          to beautiful beaches, stylish eating places and great shopping.
