We decided to take a trip to Devon once the schools had gone back. We have been at a beautiful site. in the Torbay area where we pitched our caravan nearly two weeks ago. There is a fantastic view of the sea from the site. We leave tomorrow and have had a mostly relaxing time here. We are just outside Paignton where we have been a couple of times. Our first visit took place on one of the few rainy days of the holiday. We stopped in a cafe to be snapped at and insulted by a waitress who appeared to be having some kind of a breakdown. The food good though and we left just in time to see the traffic stopped and barrier down to allow a train to leave Paignton Station. It didn’t seem that anyone got very far in the town centre. as the barrier went down every 5 minutes or so whilst we were there.

The kids enjoyed exploring the Golden Hinde replica ship in Brixham harbour and the Bygones Victorian museum in Torquay, both of which I will dedicate a separate post to.

My favourite place was Totnes with it’s bohemian and alternative shops and whole foody restaurants and cafes. It was a little Camden with seagulls.

We go home tomorrow but will be back as there is so much more to see and do, we only did a tiny portion this time round.
