3 days in Paignton: an accessible itinerary

This three-day plan is built for wheelchair users and anyone with limited mobility: every attraction and every stay listed states disabled access. Day one pairs Crealy Adventure Park, where dogs are welcome, with lunch at The Deli, which holds a 5/5 food hygiene rating and is just 1.9 miles away. Days two and three turn to museums and heritage, from Plym Valley Railway and The Box to Cotehele Quay Discovery Centre and Tavistock Museum. Five of the six hops between stops are under 9 miles, but be ready for one longer 40.8-mile drive at the start of day two.

For a base, Paignton Court Hotel sits 0.1 miles from Paignton station and 0.2 miles from Paignton Sands, rated Good for bathing water by the Environment Agency. Ross Park is 4.6 miles from Hollicombe, rated Excellent. The level of detail on access varies from place to place, so check parking, accessible toilets and lifts directly with each one before you book.
