An award-winning Christmas experience in Devon – The Christmas Train of
lights by the Dartmouth Steam Railways is a must see in the festive
calendar. The festive illuminated journey starts in Paignton, where the
vintage carriages await you - decorated with thousands of lights, both
inside and out. We take a step back in time with a visit to Torre Abbey. The
Abbey9s collection includes a wealth of incredible works of art, ranging
from the 18th century to the present day. There are lovely gardens to
explore including the walled garden behind the main house. We enjoy a
guided tour of the Potent Plants Garden. Inspired by Torquay9s most
famous former resident, the Queen of Crime Agatha Christie, who had over
half her characters poisoned, we discover just how much she knew about
plant pharmacy, and how looks can be deceptive!
