- A very brief minute look around the villages of Babbacombe and St Mary Church and the church's sad history and then I take you on a very picturesque walk from Babbacombe to Torquay.
I do not have sufficient words to describe just how beautiful this walk is! If you can do it for yourself, do it! If you can not do it yourself, I hope that you can enjoy it virtually through this video.

What a truly beautiful area to walk, beautiful 😊
It really is truly beautiful!!
Thank you Donna for a beautiful video. I have lived in the Torquay area for all of my life so it was fascinating to see your take on so many familiar things but also some which I have never seen before which just goes to prove how a local can take so much for granted !!
Thank you! That’s great to hear! That was such a lovely walk! Such stunning scenery! That’s brilliant that you found out about some new things too! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Louise, Brilliant video, lived down there for 3 years till Feb this year. Musted have done the same walk as your video at least 50 times. As you said it's a beautiful walk..........a tad hilly at times🤗🤗🤗
Keep up the good work with your videos.👍👌🤗🎉
Thanks so much Steve!!
What a lovely walk to do so many times! It must have been lovely to see it through the different seasons too!
Fantastic views in the sunshine. Don't think I went to babacombe when I worked in Torquay but it looks really lovely. 😊
Thanks Caroline! Yes, Babbacombe is really lovely. Hope you get the chance to be visit there sometime.
What a great video and I loved the filming and views. Thank you Louise 😊🧡☀️🏖
Thank you Cathy! It’s my pleasure!
Thank you Cathy! It’s my pleasure!
This was beautiful! Loved the moment in the forest with all the birds singing, it really was magical!
Thank you Donna!! It’s was really magical. This walk had it all!! Nature is so delightful!
Thanks for showing London bridge! I had not heard of that before, and it reminds me of Durdle Door. Which for the record I haven't seen yet either 😂
Oh Durdle Door is lovely! I visited it last year for my channel for the first time. It’s stunning! Yes, London Bridge reminds me of it too 🤗
Crikey! That was some walk Louise! I have done it in bits - and I know just how steep those ups and downs to the beaches and coves are, particularly Babbacombe Beach. But, oh so beautiful! Well worth the effort. You had a great weather. I learnt two things from your video - I did not know about the terrible tragedy that happened in St. Marychurch - or that that arch was called 'London Bridge'! Fascinating and beautiful video. Awesome! 😊 PS I loved the piano piece of music that you used - gorgeous.
Thank you Paul! Yes, it’s a good distance and gradient walk and definitely worth while for the views. The weather was just the best! ☀️☀️☀️☀️ Such a sad tragedy in St Marychurch and very movingly marked at the commemorative knitted exhibits I came across.
The first time that I saw that natural arch I wanted to know how to get there from Torquay. I did not realise how close it was. I believe you can do sunset boat trips out there from Paignton which I would love to do one day.
Shame to many steps for me
@@caroledane1654 Sorry to hear that.
Never done the walk to torquay. Great views.
Yes, really lovely views! ☀️Thanks for watching and commenting 🤗
That was a beautiful walk, with wonderful views. You certainly deserved your snacks that day.
Thanks Faith 🤗
Meadfoot beach, the Osborne hotel terrace for a drink and daddy hole is my favourite on this walk👍 when next in area if you want a challenging walk go from berryhead to kingswear a good 10 miler but stunning with plenty of things to see!
That sounds perfect! Thank you for the walk suggestion! I will keep that in mind. It sounds really lovely!
@@SouthWestSundays you will love it Berry head is a brilliant place to start, the scenery stunning and you will pass the Battery gardens near Kingswear from the Second World War, the day mark tower and the back entrance to coleton fishacre, if quiet you can sneak in for free, even a nudist beach😂, also the lovely man sands on the first part of walk . Finally some beautiful houses and the lovely Kingswear to finish for a much needed drink at the steam packet and then either back to Paignton/Brixham on bus or straight on the steam train or perhaps if any energy left over to Dartmouth on the ferry. Just be mindful it’s a very challenging walk👍
I need to visit This part of the south west again. Love that you called out Babbacome Model Village - it really is gorgeous, especially at night (best to time entry on illumination nights (basically Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout July and August so you can go around once in daylight and then again once the sun goes down.
The walk to Torquay looked very picturesque and loved the little diversions you took, really interesting to see the London Bridge 😁
Thanks Jesse! It’s such a lovely area to visit! I would love to see it at night when it’s illuminated. I went there donkeys years ago with my grandparents and there must be so many more models there now. It was amazing way back then, I recall. I think a a revisit is definitely called for.
I hope you get the opportunity to visit too!
What a beautiful day for a walk along the coastline. We've spent the last few weeks moving house, so going down to Torbay for a change of routine and bit of a rest.
Oh nice!! I hope you have a lovely time resting and relaxing there. Definitely a good idea after the strains of moving house!
Personally I've never done the northern
part of Torbay 🌴 but that'll have to change
Well done Louise and enjoy your well earned commission from the English Riviera tourist
board 😁
Thank you Stephen! I hope you get to explore it for yourself. Haha! Comission from the English Riviera tourist board would be nice. It’s such a lovely area to share on social media.
Such a beautiful walk and video Louise. Thoroughly enjoyed you showing us around. 😍
Thank you Amanda!
I absolutely love being able to showcase the South West like this. The more time I spend making these videos, the more I adore the South West! It’s nature really makes these videos!
@@SouthWestSundays you are very blessed to live in the south west of the UK. 😀
So many ghosts in the trees. Be careful!
Were you being very diplomatic and putting jam first on half your scone and cream first on the other half?😂
🤣 Yep 🤣
@@SouthWestSundays been there, done that! Lol
Babbacombe to torquay walk ... babbacombe IS IN TORQUAY
Wow what a revelation. The next time I get on the bus at Babbacombe to go down into Torquay, I will have to really choose my words carefully when telling the bus driver where I want to go.
