Torquay - a jewel by the sea
But Torquay is about much more than just sun, sea and sand. The town falls within the UNESCO-supported English Riviera Global Geopark, a unique area where cavemen and prehistoric beasts once roamed. You can experience it close up at Kents Cavern, home to the oldest fragment of the modern human species ever found in Europe.
If you’re looking for some more modern history, take a walk down the Agatha Christie Mile and trace the famous author’s footsteps through her hometown of Torquay.
For an unforgettable visit for the entire family, check out Torquay’s Living Coasts coastal zoo, which features exciting indoor and outdoor exhibits including Penguin Beach, Fur Seal Cove and Octopus Odyssey. You can even get combined Living Coasts and Paignton Zoo tickets.
There’s a year-round calendar of events in Torquay, including the popular Torbay Royal Regatta with displays from the Red Arrows, and you can often catch top West End shows at the Princess Theatre. For fabulous views, ascend the illuminated staircase at Royal Terrace Gardens, or take a trip on the unique HiFlyer Balloon for a real bird’s eye view.
Torre Abbey Gardens
Do not touch! is the warning for all visitors to the Potent Plants Garden at Torre Abbey. Inspired by the life of crime writer Agatha Christie, the abbey’s head gardener dug deep into the murky world of poisons, antidotes and remedies in Christie’s novels and created a garden featuring a variety of interesting plants that may cure or kill depending on one’s motives. Of course, it’s not really dangerous - less potent garden cultivars were planted and the garden is designed to entertain - not provide murderous opportunities!
This particular section is only a small part of the rest of the abbey’s garden. You’ll also find tombs of monks in the grounds, a palm house, the ruins of the original church and perfectly manicured flower beds with one of the best dahlia collections in the Westcountry. The garden also hosts sculpture exhibitions from local and visiting artists.
Please note: The abbey building is currently closed for renovation (due to re-open 2013/2014) but the garden remains open.

Berry Pomeroy Castle is about two and a half miles from Totnes bridge, by a very uphill road,{ the A385 Paignton bound} is one of the best known and probably the most picturesque of Devon's Castles. Berry Pomeroy owes its name to one of the original followers of the Norman conqueror, Ralph de Pomeroy, who appears in the Doomsday Book, {1086} as lord of 106 manors within the county.
Rather than being built on an old site, which was common at the time, as illustrated by his neighbour Judhael of Totnes, he elected to build Berry Pomeroy Castle on a remote site within the woods, on a fairly inaccessible knoll above a deep-sunk tributary brook of the river Dart. This can be explained after looking at the castle, and determining the defensibility of the building. The tributary ravine protects a good half of the Northern side of the building, the Southern side, the most exposed face of the building, is protected by high walls and a gatehouse of exceptional solidity, From which rise two high hexagonal towers.
Above the portcullis chamber is a fine carved shield with the lion rampant of Pomeroy, this can also be seen well displayed on the tombs in the parish church, a mile outside the woods. Complete reconstruction took place in the twelfth century, although most of the existing buildings date from much later.
The Pomeroys were among the most powerful of the early Devonian feudal houses, and had the unusual luck to continue there lineal succession for 500 years. This was indeed more from luck than anything else. Henry de Pomeroy was a resolute supporter of King John Lackland, in his rebellion against Richard 1. Having been forced to flee from Berry, he seized the impregnable Cornish rock of St Michael, and held it until all hope was lost. He escaped forfeiture of his lands and riches by committing suicide, having first assigning his lands to his sons. Local legend has it that his method of suicide was quite gruesome, having blindfolded his horse, he rode the animal out through the postern, and down the precipitous north side of the castle, ending up in the ravine below suffering from a broken neck. This story, although colourful, is however quite untrue, as history tells us that Henry had his surgeon bleed him to death, apparently an ancient Roman tradition.
The Pomeroys endured until the early years of the reign of King Edward VI, an era marked by religious wars. Sir Thomas Pomeroy, at that time the head of the house, was one of the main supporters of the Catholic party in the West Country. It is believed that during the early part of the Protectorate of Lord Somerset, an infamous land grabber of the time, undue pressure, maybe even some degree of blackmail was used to Persuade Sir Thomas to part with his lands. Legend has it that Sir Thomas saved his head after the unsuccessful Prayer Book rebellion of 1549 , by signing over Berry to Somerset. However, it would appear that this cannot be true, since , by 1549, Somerset had been deposed, and was residing in the Tower . Somerset was released from the Tower, and enjoyed two more years at liberty until he was attained and executed by his rival John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland. During this time, he made over Berry to his eldest son, Edward Seymour, the child of his first wife, Catherine.
Edward and his descendants for two hundred years became lords of Berry Pomeroy, and certain other Devonshire lands, and Baronets after the time of James 1.
During the early part of the Seymour reign, considerable changes where made to the buildings. In the centre of the old castle walls was erected the magnificent Tudor building, nowadays the most eye-catching of the site. It was a mansion built for light and convenience, with enormous mullioned windows,
which occupy more than half of its frontage. There are long galleries and spacious reception rooms, so common in the buildings of the time.
Apparently, the interior decorations were elaborate, almost to the point of being ostentatious, even for the time. Mantelpieces of polished Marble instead of freestone, fluted Corinthian pillars, cornices of wreathed fruit and flowers, in high gilt, ceilings of curiously figured plaster, paneling of precious woods.
The building is said to have cost 20,000, a great deal of money for the time. According to the author of Worthies of Devon, himself an eighteenth century vicar of Berry, The whole was never brought to fruition, as the west side was never begun.
Five generations of Seymour's lived at Berry, Knights and afterwards baronets, prominent within the noble families of Devon. The English civil war brought harm to Berry, as it did to many castles at the time. The walls were slighted, and the residence suffered considerable damage. It must have been still inhabitable in 1688, as Sir Edward Seymour brought William of Orange there on his march from Torbay to Newton Abbot. It would appear that Edward was the last resident of Berry, and he spent his later years at his residence at Maiden Bradley in Somersetshire. Indeed, that would appear to be the place of his death.
History tells us that the roofs of Berry succumbed to a lightening strike, and were fired, and that the owner, considering it rather remote, would not go to the expense of repair. Three hundred years of wind and rain have done their worst, and the once magnificent building is now a picturesque skeleton of its former self, showing the sky through mullioned ribs.
When wandering around the site of Berry Pomeroy Castle and manor house, take in the atmosphere, and try to imagine the intrigue and skulduggery that went on during its heyday, and then maybe, just maybe, you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of one of the many ghosts that patrol the walls. For anybody with an interest in history, this is a must.

Dartmouth Castle is well preserved & juts out into the narrow entrance to the Dart estuary.
Dartmouth Castle was begun in the late 14th century, a defence called 'The Fortilace' was intended to protect the homes of Dartmouth merchants from shipborne attacks. By1491 it had been reinforced by a gun tower, probably the very first fortification in England purpose built to mount heavy cannon.
It is said that Chaucer based the 'Shipman' character in his Canterbury Tales on John Hawley - the colourful merchant and Mayor of Dartmouth who began the first castle. Today, you can enjoy other tales of Dartmouth Castle as you journey through time from the Tudor period and the Civil War to Worls war 11. Displays on the castle's history add to the experience.
Why not make it a full day out and take a boat trip from the quay side at Dartmouth, which lands you just a short walk from the castle entrance.

The beautiful Edwardian Pavilion on Torquay’s seafront was opened in 1912 as a ‘Palace of Pleasure’ and was designed to be a venue in which to hear music, see plays and meet friends. Nowadays it houses specialist, independently-owned shops ranging from arts and crafts to giftware and unusual souvenirs, making a refreshing alternative to the high street shops. On the upper floor you’ll find the Reah Brothers restaurant and bar, where you can enjoy a coffee and bite to eat during the day and excellent dining of an evening, combined with stunning sea views from the terrace.
The Pavilion features on the Agatha Christie Mile – Agatha Christie enjoyed attending concerts and parties there during her youth and it was here that her first husband Archie Christie proposed. They married on Christmas Eve 1914.
Open all year, 7 days a week until 5.30pm, and until 9.30pm during the summer.
* Most Shops within Fleet Walk are open Daily from 09.30 - 17.30.
Some shops are open on Sundays 10.00 -16.00
FLEET Walk shopping centre is packed with interesting independent stores and national chains. “It is a hidden treasure and people don’t realise it, a part of Torquay that is going unnoticed,” said John Seymour, Centre Manager at Fleet Walk Shopping Centre.
“We can offer a different type of experience here at Fleet Walk as opposed to some of the other areas,” he continued. “As a centre we really want to promote our individuality and high level of personal service.” “The mix of shops you get now is catering for all types of people. Right on our doorstep is the harbour and all its amenities next to our shopping centre. You can have a really pleasant day shopping,” John added.
All age ranges, prices and styles for both men and women are covered by the various fashion shops, which include independents and high street chains, and you can buy shoes at prices ranging from cheap fashion models to top quality Continental leather designer styles, and the ever popular trainers and sports and surfing wear, a specialist candle shop, whose exquisite candles include an aromatherapy range can also be found. When you add in the famous national designer discount chain, you have a total shopping experience. “It is an eclectic mix,” said John.
Hungry and thirsty from all the shopping? Grab a fresh coffee, tuck into a pizza or some of Colonel Sanders chicken, or you may prefer to relax in an outdoor cafe.
An added bonus is the award winning parking close by. The Fleet Walk car park operates a Pay on Foot system and is part of the complex. There is no restriction on how long you can park, and you pay only for the hours you have stayed. It is fully equipped with brand new WCs, disabled facilities and lifts.
The centre was built in 1989 when it was opened by the Princess Royal. Its elegant upper boulevard contains all the classic upmarket shops you would expect, but the prices are extremely reasonable. You don’t need to spend a fortune in Fleet Walk to buy quality and original goods.
“It is just waiting to be discovered, so don’t leave it too long.”
