Agatha Christie described her beloved holiday home Greenway as “the loveliest place in the world”. Nestled on the banks of the River Dart, with a long history dating back to the 1490s, the house still retains features added by all generations of occupying families. Now managed by the National Trust, Greenway offers visitors an extraordinary glimpse into the private life of the Queen.

Picturesque Dartmouth is very much a ‘yachtie town’ where you’ll see all kinds of craft on the beautiful river. Stroll along the Embankment of this historic town with the distinctive Britannia Royal Naval College set proud on the hillside and you’ll lose count of the yachts, ferries, kayaks, motorboats, dinghies, paddleboards and many more waterborne craft.

Fishcombe Cove is ideal if you want to escape the crowds. Situated along the coast from Brixham, this small shingle beach is a quiet, peaceful little cove protected on all sides by tall red cliffs. The sheltered cove makes this a safe place for swimming, but you may have a few spectators as boats and yachts often moor up here, and sometimes there’s even the odd seal!

The Battery Gardens has one of the most panoramic views in the Bay and is a great location to watch the annual English Riviera Airshow. The gardens are a natural landscape of trees and grass, and in spring it becomes a sea of bluebells and snowdrops. In Autumn, the ground turns orange with a covering of crisp autumn leaves. With footpaths throughout the park, it is a great place to walk in all seasons. The Battery Gardens are so named as this area was once a World War II Battery point and the now protected land is of significant historical and archaeological value. Along your walk you will see many shelters used by the Brixham Home Guard during WWII.
