Autumn Breaks

Like swallows swooping over the fields, the many summer visitors to the English Riviera set off home when the evenings start to draw in. The beaches take on a new wild beauty, the leaves change into their glorious jewel-like colours, and our cosy pubs and restaurants offer snug shelter from the autumn weather. Walkers, foodies, young families and anyone who loves a bargain break know that the English Riviera is open all year round, letting you experience the changing seasons in all their glory and at great value prices.

Milder microclimate on the English Riviera

The shelter provided by towering Dartmoor to the northwest means that this part of South Devon benefits from a milder microclimate. That’s why we can grow the palm trees that the English Riviera is so well known for! As well as being great for tender plants, it also makes it uniquely appealing to us humans all year round as generally you can expect better weather on the English Riviera

Changing seasons reveal a new beauty

During the autumn, Torquay, Brixham, Babbacombe and Paignton all take on a different personality. With a gentle onshore breeze that helps to keep the temperatures warm, these traditional Devon seaside towns embrace the changing colours of Autumn. Whether you’re here for a weekend break away or a longer half-term holiday, the English Riviera doesn’t slow down just because there’s an ‘r’ in the month!

Autumn accommodation

From luxury 5-star hotels with views of the super yachts in the bright autumn sunshine to cosy self-catering cottages complete with a real wood-burning stove, you’ll find accommodation on the English Riviera to suit every taste and budget. Book a romantic retreat in the heart of quaint Cockington village and make the most of the long countryside walks on your doorstep. Nothing beats a long walk through autumn leaves of gold and red and then snuggling up together in front of an open fire with a bottle of locally produced fine wine.

Things To Do in Autumn

And there are lots of things for families to do at this time of year - you can have many Autumn Adventures. On fine autumn days the kids will still love the beach – and the sea temperature is at its warmest too. The free Geoplay playground on Paignton’s seafront is open whatever the weather, where little ones can run, bounce, slide, swing and climb to their heart’s content. Or take them for a fish and chip supper in one of our many local seafood cafes and restaurants.

Even if the weather does turn cooler in the autumn, there’s one thing that’s always warm in South Devon and that’s the welcome.
