Paignton is situated at the centre of Torbay
in the heart of the English Riviera and is noted for its clean,
sandy beaches, clear blue waters and mild weather. It
is an ideal location for a sea-side holiday or short break.
You can relax on a boat trip, or for the more
active there is deep sea fishing, water sports and golf. The
world-renowned Paignton Zoo has over 75 acres of beautiful wood
and parkland to explore, or take a nostalgic trip on the Paignton
& Dartmouth Steam Railway.
Throughout the season many events are held on
Paignton Green (Seafront) including firework displays, classic
car show, fun fairs, exhibitions, children’s entertainment,
army displays and charity fetes.
Paignton is also an ideal base for exploring
further afield, either by public transport or by car. The
surrounding countryside has many interesting places to visit,
including the picture postcard village of Cockington, Babbacombe
Model Village or take a step back in time to Morwellham – where
history comes alive. Visit the copper mine or see the mighty
Shire horses in their centuries old farm.
The coastal towns of Dartmouth, Brixham,
Dawlish and Teignmouth are within easy reach. As is Torquay,
the birth place of Agatha Christie.
