Set in the midst of the Devonshire countryside, this historical market town is alive with culture and has a wealth of attractions. The town itself was significant in the English Civil War, and “Torrington 1646” is a fascinating museum, full of artefacts and where you can dress up in clothing of this period, and even try on a suit of armour!
There is a popular pannier market in The Square, where you can browse locally produced foods and crafts, and a Theatre if you fancy catching a show or recital. A museum in the Town Hall is also a fascinating insight into the town’s history.
Full of stunning cottage gardens, woodland trails and a lovely tearoom or restaurant to rest those tired feet, it is the most perfect locale to enjoy a relaxing day.
This is just some of the large selection of attractions that Great Torrington has to offer, and what makes this a truly alluring place to visit and stay.
