Golden Autumn Time in Dartmouth

Perfect weekend breaks or UK getaways. And the warmest Autumn welcome in beautiful South Devon.

Autumn in Dartmouth is always a beautiful time. Sail or cruise up the River Dart or take the Steam railway to see the vivid colours in the treescapes as nature takes its course.  Wander down the pretty cobbled lanes where the independent shops and cafes cast dramatic shadows in the late afternoons.

It’s still warm enough to people watch on the quayside and ramble along the South West Coast Path or step back in time to visit Dartmouth Castle or Dartmouth’s rich Royal Naval heritage at the Britannia Royal Naval College.

When hunger strikes, there’s all kind of delights to sample at the annual Food Festival. If your appetite is more artistic, why not plan your South Devon holiday, getaway or UK break for Dartmouth Galleries week in late October?

And not forgetting your four legged friends, Dartmouth is one of the UK’s dog friendliest destinations.
