Join IOW Tours this September for a late summer getaway to beautiful Babbacombe in Devon.

If your looking for a laid-back, tranquil holiday without all the hassle of fighting through the crowds to get to the beach, Babbacombe is a great place to discover. Affectionately known as the ‘Jewel of the Crown of the English Riviera’ the beach resort of Babbacombe includes a great range of things to do in a quiet, laid-back setting.

The family-run Anchorage Hotel offers an outdoor swimming pool, luxurious dining in the restaurant, stylish bedrooms and a perfect location. Just 5 minutes walk from Oddicombe Beach, which is home to The Cliff Railway.

We have planned 3 gorgeous days out for you, so you really get to see the true highlights of Devon, just some being a visit to the magical Powderham Castle, a magnificent 600 year old fortified manor. It is also the family home to the Earl and Countess of Devon. It was originally built by Sir Philip Courtenay in 1391 and despite undergoing many transformations since surviving the ravages of the civil war in the 17th century, it has remained in the same family. Don’t forget to visit the Deer Park Safari!

You will also spend a gorgeous afternoon sailing along the River Exe, whilst enjoying Afternoon Devon Cream Tea (Jam then Cream please!), the accommodating crew will provide a full commentary on-board as you take in all the historic sights.

There will also be day excursions to Totnes, a small market town and civil parish at the head of the estuary of the River Dart, and also a stop off in Brixham, a small fishing town where tourism is so popular due to the beauty and idyllic setting.
