DETAILED OVERVIEW
Breathtaking Babbacombe
You are sure to love Babbacombe Bay on Devons English Riviera. In 1846, Queen Victoria wrote: 'It's a beautiful spot... red cliffs and rocks with wooded hills like Italy and reminding one of a ballet or play where nymphs appear such rocks and grottoes, with the deepest sea on which there was no ripple.' Over 150 years later, it still feels the same as you stand and look across the beautiful bay. With great beaches and attractions including Babbacombe Downs and the highest clifftop promenade in England. The Babbacombe Hotel enjoys a level position directly on the sea front overlooking the famous Babbacombe Downs with far reaching beautiful views across Lyme Bay. We include excursions to: Buckfast Abbey, South Devon Steam Railway, Dartmouth, and a Dart River Cruise.
