Brixham to Exmouth along the beautiful coastline of the English Riviera.
From £285 per person
This short stretch of the South West Coast Path begins with a stroll between the bustling resorts of Brixham, Paignton, and Torquay. It is quickly surrounded by natural beauty as it rounds the spectacular headland of Hope’s Nose, complete with its offshore cluster of rock islands and seabird colonies.
On it rambles around Babbacombe Bay to the Ness, a tree-lined cliff of sandstone. Two short ferry journeys, split by the walk from Teignmouth to Starcross, bring the trail to its end in Exmouth.

We do not expect you to have to travel more than a mile from the trail to your accommodation; should your accommodation be further than this, transfers will be provided as standard.
