Exeter, with its excellent shopping facilities, is a 20 minute drive away and you can be on Dartmoor in 40 minutes. Sidmouth, ’A town caught still in a timeless charm’, according to John Betjeman, is a delightful place. A short walk through the gardens and park of The Knowle takes you into town with its mix of very friendly independent shops, cafés and pubs, or to the Esplanade with its fine range of Regency and Victorian architecture. Sidmouth’s lovely local cinema and lively theatre are a short walk away, as are various churches, medical facilities, library, bus and taxi services. The Byes riverside park offers a pleasant, level walk to enjoy the wild flower meadows and perhaps a sighting of a kingfisher or dipper. This is part of the Arboretum Tree Trail that circuits the town which is blessed with many interesting trees.

Sidmouth is becoming a festival town with Folk Week in August, and science, literary and walking festivals at various times of the year. The town also has a putting green and guests are welcome at the Golf Club. There is public access to bowling greens and tennis courts. The Donkey Sanctuary is a stiff coast path walk or a short drive away. The Norman Lockyer Observatory on top of Salcombe Hill has regular public sessions throughout the year. For the less agile, both can be reached by a ride on the Sidmouth Hopper Bus, a hail and ride service that runs throughout the summer from Mutters Moor on Peak Hill across the valley to Salcombe Regis. Beach 1 mile.
