Teignmouth Town and River Beaches
The seaside town of Teignmouth will lay claim to your affections the minute you arrive with most of its history wrapped up with its harbour, with fishing, and with clay from up the valley at Bovey Tracey.
Since Georgian and Regency times Teignmouth has been attracting visitors to its wide beaches and amenable climate, and this has shaped the greater part of what Teignmouth is today.
The seafront is much as your great grandparents would have enjoyed it, save for the recent addition of a popular £400,000 children's play area, new adventure golf course and multi-use games area. The town near the seafront is predominantly Regency and Victorian in style.
