Lyme Regis Seafront

Highlight • Viewpoint

Lyme Regis is an enchanting seaside town that features in the Domesday Book and is home to much history. Set against moody blue cliffs yielding fossilised evidence of life on earth millions of years ago, the town is very tranquil and picturesque at any time of year.

Seaton Wetlands

Highlight • Natural

Seaton Wetlands are an area of marshland and reedbeds beside the River Axe that are designated a nature reserve. Explore the five bird hides including the Island Hide and nearly 4 kilometres of level trails and boardwalks suitable for wheelchair, bikes and pushchairs. This is a dog-free reserve.

On my last visit here, I saw shelducks, nesting swans, a wading redshank, avocet and Canada geese. Check the whiteboards at the Discovery Hut and Lookout for what has been spotted recently when you visit.

The site is managed by Wild East Devon, and you can check out more at: eastdevon.gov.uk/wildeastdevon/wild-east-devon-nature-reserves/seaton-wetlands

Byes Toll House, Sidmouth

Highlight • Monument

Dating from early 19th C. in Greek Revival style, Sidmouth's original Toll House controlled the eastern approach to the town. The original toll gate now hangs alongside.

River Sid Ford

Highlight • Bridge

This pretty ford over the River Sid can be cycled across if you are careful on the slope, which can be slippery at times. There's a little bridge you can walk your bike over if you'd prefer.

The River Sid is claimed to be the shortest complete river in England, flowing for 6.5 miles (10.5 km) southwards from a source in Crowpits Covert.

Taste Ice Cream & Coffee, Sidmouth

Highlight • Cafe

The best ice-cream in town, or possibly on the East Devon coast... Taste is a must-visit when you're passing through Sidmouth! You'll find it a short walk off the main promenade down the old high street, handily opposite the public loos which also have a water refill point.

Good luck choosing between all the flavours!
