About Cockington Court ...
Just a mile from Torquay seafront, historic Cockington Court is nestled within 460 acres of country park and is home to a growing number of skilled craftspeople.
You can watch them as they work and perhaps indulge in a spot of retail therapy in their studios and galleries.More about studios...
Relax afterwards in the Tea Rooms while the kids play in the park, then ride in a horse drawn carriage though the estate back to the idyllic Cockington Village with its picture-postcard cottages and award-winning gardens.
A great day out for all the family!
