Dawlish Warren is just over a mile from The Old Lime Kiln, and you can walk along the SW coastal path there. It is full of holiday parks and so the shops and cafes reflect this. However if you walk along the beach you will find a nature reserve and beautiful quiet beaches that the majority of tourists don't venture too!

Sightseeing

Visit the farm to see how mushrooms are grown in the 'Shroom Rooms'. You have to book a tour - so interesting.

https://discoverdartmouth.com A trip to Dartmouth is a great day out. Catch the train from Starcross to Paignton, then take the steam train to Kingswear, and then a ferry across the River Dart to the town. You can then either come back the same way, or take a ferry up the river to Totnes and catch the mainline train back to Starcross.

Totnes https://www.visittotnes.co.uk A very unusual town and I quote ‘the locals pride themselves on being different’! They don't allow chain shops there so very individual. There is also a lovely vineyard and cheese producer there called Sharpham Estate, where there is one of the best examples of an ox bow lake.
