Activities

There are so many things to do in South Devon all through the year. Swimming, surfing, golfing, fishing and so much more – there is something for everyone and you really will be spoilt for choice. There are also plenty of things to keep the kids amused! 

Swimming

The Private Leisure Club contains a beautiful indoor pool and jacuzzi for guests. You can find out more about the leisure club here.

Or you can brave it and have a swim in the sea. To give you some peace of mind, there are lifeguards present at Bigbury on Sea beach during May to September. The beach has excellent water quality so you can be sure the whole family is safe to enjoy the sea.

Bigbury Golf Club

There is a turn up and play 'circus' each Friday organised by members but open to visitors, based on a round played to Stableford rules. Pay your green fee in the Pro Shop, then meet in the Clubhouse lounge no later than 9.30am to pay your Circus entry fee.

Fishing

Bantham, Bigbury, Mothecombe and Challaborough are all popular fishing spots very close by and there’s a huge variety of fish to be had. The breakwater at Brixham is great for mackerel and bass. To make the most of these idyllic locations, head out at sunrise or sunset to dodge the seasonal crowds and guarantee yourself a parking spot!
