ITINERARY

Day 1

Depart the local area with a lunch stop on route, arriving at our hotel in Sidmouth late afternoon. This glorious regency seaside town is nestled into the Jurassic Coast and yet enjoys a largely flat town centre. The highly regarded Royal York & Faulkner Hotel is positioned in the centre of the elegant Esplanade.

|

Day 2

Today we travel along the coast to Abbotsbury. We visit the Swannery in time for the morning feed, and then visit the Subtropical Gardens for the afternoon.

|

Day 3

Today we discover Knightshayes (NT) with acres of glorious garden and park, surrounding a spectacular Gothic Revival house, Knightshayes is the complete country gentleman's dream. The house is a rare example of the work of William Burges, whose lavish designs have always inspired extremes of opinion. Full of quirks and curiosities, it is a house of many faces.

|

Day 4

A day at leisure in Sidmouth. Visit the magnificent Connaught Gardens for a relaxing sit amongst the many "rooms" of colourful planting, enjoy the compact town centre, or while away some time on the promenade or beach. An optional visit to The Donkey Sanctuary this afternoon.

|

Day 5

This morning we travel to the local town of Exmouth and board a boat for a 2.5hr cruise along the fascinating Jurassic Coast. Enjoy a cream tea as your Skipper gives you a live commentary on the history of the area, the beautiful sights and the resident and visiting wildlife. This afternoon we visit the Cathedral city of Exeter.

|

Day 6

Departing after breakfast we travel home with a lunch stop on route, arriving back early evening.
