Torquay

It was a bright, sunny January day and the Devon countryside looked glorious.  We parked on the seafront at Torquay opposite Abbey Sands and walked along the South West Coast Path around the harbour and on to Meadfoot Beach.  There were pavements around the harbour, but just past Living Coasts  we went down a concrete footpath at the side of the Imperial Hotel.  

At the end of this path there were steps up to a path through a wood that followed the coast.  This path was rough and muddy in places but the views were spectacular.  

London Bridge

At the end of the path there were steps up to Daddyhole Plain.We stopped here for lunch, with a wonderful view

The signpost told us we were following the Rock End Walk and we continued  through the Meadfoot Beach car park and down the road back to Torquay Harbour.  This was a much quicker and easier walk although a small portion did not have a pavement.  It was downhill all the way, so would not have been so easy if we had done the walk the other way around.

Before returning to our car we walked on to Corbyn Head and looked out to Livermead Sands.
