Overview

This walk is in the region of 12 miles and will start and end at Thurlestone. We will do the inland section of the walk first, crossing open fields and tracks and through the villages of South Huish and Galmpton, then onto Bolberry Down. From there, we will take the Coastal Path all the way along to Bantham, passing the likes of Hope Cove and South Milton Sands along the way. This is a very scenic section of the Coast Path with some lovely beaches to stop for a paddle or swim if the weather is kind to us.
