A few suggestions...

Torrington 1646  A visit to the 'Torrington 1646' tourist attraction is truly an “experience” which will be enjoyed by all the family whatever their ages. This is history as never before, as we travel back to 1646 and meet the characters who populated Torrington, North Devon's forgotten site of the last major battle of the English Civil War. See how they lived, loved, laughed and lied their way through the English Civil War.

RHS Garden Rosemoor  Visit this beautiful RHS garden, 10 minutes from Birchill Farm and wander the flora and fauna that is Rosemoor - as one of our guests put it - 'much better than Wisley!'

Dartington Crystal  No trip to Devon is complete without a visit to Dartington Crystal Factory Experience. See first hand how our crystal is hand crafted with skill and care from the blowing of the molten glass through to the final finishing. There's lots more to see and do that will make your visit truly memorable.
