Enjoy a Summer Break in Self-catering Apartments at Paignton

20 July 2015 | 1 comments

If you like to be beside the seaside, maybe a Summer Break in Self-catering Apartments at Paignton is the order of the day. Paignton is a thriving holiday resort and is one of the several coastal towns, together with Torquay, Babbacombe and Brixham that make up the English Riviera. There are 22 miles of coastline, coves, cliffs and beaches with a warm, sometimes Mediterranean-like climate.

Renowned for its exotic palm trees and award winning beaches the English Riviera has more attractions than any other UK seaside resort and is also known as a Global Geopark. The Bedford Holiday Apartments are located here and they offer a relaxing summer break in first class, self-catering holiday accommodation.

Paignton Sea front

The seafront of Paignton offers a varied choice of attractions to keep you and the family busy. Choose from the water park at Quaywest where you can get wet and wild with all the family, enjoy the thrilling tube slides, free-fall slide and submarine play-zone.

Perhaps you prefer a quieter, more traditional activity in which case you can play crazy golf on the Paignton Green course. During the summer, the Green hosts many fairs, festivals and other activities. In addition, there are many annual exhibitions which take place on the Green.

Paignton’s Geoplay Park is based on the English Riviera’s geological history and offers an amazing play area for children and toddlers of all ages. The Park also offers free entry for all visitors.

Take a boat trip to experience the English Riviera from one of its best vantage points, out at sea. Book an evening cruise, a fishing excursion, a sight-seeing trip or take a ride across the bay on a ferry, with regular services from Paignton to Brixham and Torquay.

Paignton Activities

There is no shortage of things to do away from the sea-shore and visitors will find themselves spoilt for choice. Visit the many animal species at Paignton Zoo or for the train buffs, take a seven mile ride on the steam train in Great Western tradition, along the Paignton and Dartmouth Steam Railway.

Indulge in some history at Kirkham House, which is over 500 years old or visit the home of Isaac Singer (sewing machine manufacturer) at nearby Oldway Mansion.

Wrap up your day with a leisurely stroll along the seafront and soak up the atmosphere with the beachfront illuminations.

Paignton is the ideal seaside resort, with all ingredients you need for an amazing, memorable, family holiday. At Bedford Holiday Apartments we offer you excellent self-catering holiday accommodation on the English Riviera.
