Babbacombe Beach Road in South Devon down to the Cary Arms - 30% and you can drive down it!!

Join me as we drive down Babbacombe Downs to Beach Road and the Cary Arms Boutique Hotel and Spa. It is a very steep road - 30% in places - let's hope we don't meet anyone or another vehicle on the way down and back up!

Found this pub by mistake in December and had a pint and thought what a lovely place but said i wouldnt go in the summer or if i did would get a taxi !!

[@alistairgleave]

That's a top recommendation

i remember when when uncle milke's milk float lost control going down here in the snow and he ended up in the sea. to this day you can still find the sea smoothed glass from his broken bottles on the beach. very funny morning that one. we were all too busy laughing to notice him drown.

[@alistairgleave]

Not sure what to say about that, I hope he didnt drown....

[@Bingpot_Cowabunga]

@@alistairgleave he did. At low tide you can see his headstone.

[@rayflynn162]

Nicely done, but you should've stayed at the pub, I didn't want to go back up 😭🍺

[@alistairgleave]

Ha ha, I think I'll save that for a future video 😹

When I was teaching my kids to drive I used to make them drive down that hill, turn around at the bottom and drive back up and of course a hill start at the give way at the top.

[@alistairgleave]

What a cracking driving lesson, bet they didn't thank you for that at the time....

No they were OK, I didn't do it straight off but once they were confident it was fine. We live just outside of Torquay so I would take them all around the Warberries area also steep and narrow to build up their confidence, and it worked they both passed first time fairly quickly. I really enjoy seeing my home area from other people's perspective.

Are there any changing rooms at babbacome beach.

[@alistairgleave]

Nope, there is just a toilet block
