"A post shared by Kawkaw (@kawainwright) on Sep 2, 2018 at 4:48am PDT. Running between Buckfastleigh and Totnesis the South Devon Railway. Step back in time from the moment you arrive with the vintage décor and characteristic charm – it’s a splendid day out."

"Built in 1196, this impressive abbey is a setting for arts and cultural events, but it's the wonderful gardens that are of most interest – particularly to Agatha Christie fans. The Potent Plant plot features..."

"Based on the Barbican, Valenti’s serve up delicious desserts and incredible artisan ice creams and sorbets, so it’s a good place to head for your chocolate fix during the glorious summer weather. There’s a great range of chocolate based flavours to choose from, with favourites including Bueno, triple chocolate and mint choc chip. View this post on Instagram"

"In at number seven on TripAdvisor is Valenti's Gelato Venue. Gelato Venue by Valenti's is a traditional Ice cream Parlour offering artisan gelato, sundaes, coffee, shakes and more to takeaway. Valenti's have been making 'seriously creamy ice cream' since 1912 when Antonio Valente and his son Carlo travelled from Italy to establish their shop."

"In at number six on TripAdvisor is Bertie's Ice Cream and Homemade Desserts. A few years back, former chef Philip Burnett expanded his well-known ice cream business and set up a permanent base at Commercial Wharf. He only uses local Yarde Farm ice cream, which he serves up with a range of homemade treats that are all made from scratch"

"The Copper Kettle built in 1910, offers Bed & Breakfast accommodation in the delightful town of Bovey Tracey and also has a licensed character tearoom / restaurant where all food is freshly prepared and cooked on the premises."

"Whilst reviewing coffee around the Quayside I thought I would mention one of my favourite spots over the other side of the river for sitting and watching the world go by. There is always a great atmosphere down at the Quay, no matter what day of the week it is and I just love the location of Mango’s Café. It did help that my most recent visit to Mango’s was on one of those glorious sunny days where the temperature was in the early twenties so I was able to sit outside overlooking the river and the rest of the quay with an iced latte in hand."

"This independent cafe has quickly built a reputation for its unique and hearty breakfasts. Sat by the water's edge, you can watch the world go by with a cup off coffee and a book, or a glass of wine with company. There is a focus on local, quality food here served in a friendly environment."

"Less than five minutes walk from our house, Massimiliano (Max) welcomes you to his restaurant to discover the real taste of Mediterrean cuisine and the flavor of real Italian Gastronomia. La Scala serves a range of dishes including meat, chicken, veal, pasta, and fresh fish. There is also a daily specials board including a fish speciality."

"Entering the village is like stepping through the Wardrobe in one of CS Lewis’ stories. A short drive from urban Torquay you find thatched roof cottages, a forge and windmill surrounded by a extensive country park. There’s also craft studios, a tea room and gardens at Cockington Court, the old manor house."

"We are a family run cafe in the heart of Dartmout, set in the Old Market Square. We offer breakfast, lunch and Devon cream teas, hot and cold lunch specials, fresh crab sandwiches and homemade quiches & cakes!"

"Three miles northeast of Chagford, this outlandish architectural flight of fancy was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens for self-made food-millionaire Julius Drewe. Built between 1911 and 1931, it was intended to be a modern-day medieval castle, with all the comforts of a country house. Unfortunately, the property hasn't worn well – it's currently the focus of a massive six-year restoration project. Parts of the house remain open, though, and imaginative midrenovation displays include a scaffolding viewing tower."
