On the coast of Torbay, Devon, lies the pretty seaside town of Paignton. An underrated gem of the English Riviera, Paignton is the home of the popular Paignton Zoo & Animal Park - with over 2,000 animals across 80 acres, it's a guaranteed great day out.
Another must-see attraction is the Paignton to Dartmouth Steam Railway, where a steam train with Harry Potter-esque charm takes you on a slow journey along beautiful 7 miles of South Devon coast. Stay in of our last-minute cottages in Paignton and Devon to experience the allure of this seaside town in all its glory.
