Day 1

Your holiday starts with a pick up from home by one of the vehicles from our Door to Door service and this will bring you through to our coach. A suitable stop will be made in Worcester en-route for lunch (not included in the cost of your holiday) and we'll aim to be at the hotel by late afternoon.

Day 2

From Paignton, board a steam train along a delightful stretch
of coastline to Kingswear, from there you catch the foot passenger
ferry to the historic maritime town of Dartmouth, with its ancient
narrow streets, boutique shops and art galleries. In the afternoon, you
can enjoy spectacular views of castles, the Britannia Royal Naval
College, Sir Walter Raleigh's Boathouse, Greenway Quay and the estate
of the late Dame Agatha Christie, all on a one-hour circular harbour/
river cruise from Dartmouth or continue to the historic town of Totnes.


Day 3

Excursion to the historic, maritime city of Plymouth, famous
for Sir Frances Drake, who apparently finished a game of bowls on
Plymouth Hoe, before heading out to sea and defeating the Spanish
Armada. Return on a picturesque journey through the heart of the
Dartmoor National Park famed for its ponies and stunning scenery.

Day 4

Soak up the atmosphere, the parks, the gardens and all that
Torquay has to offer with a day at leisure.


Day 5

Once breakfast is over, we check out from the hotel and make our way home at lunchtime before returning you to your drop off point where one of our Door to Door vehicles will be waiting to take you back home.
