Cockington Court, Country Park, Village

We take the 22 bus (again) through Torquay to Livermore Sands and walk up to Cockington, a village close to Torquay, via some lovely water meadows.

From the village, we follow a circular walk that includes part of the John Musgrave Cultural Trail, around to Cockington Court and Country Garden. The Manor House was owned by the influential Cary and Mallock families before passing to Torbay Council; the Country Park was created in 1991. There are interesting craft studios and gardens here, as well as the local village church (Norman).

We walk through the Country Park to reach Cockington Village itself; it is like stepping back in time, as it is very beautiful with many lovely cottages.Leggi altro
