About Newton Abbot - Devon
One of the major attractions of Newton Abbot is its location. Not only is it placed at the neck of a beautiful estuary it is only 15mins drive to the moors or the local beaches. Dartmoor National Park is a place of outstanding beauty with extensive panoramic views. Areas of interest include Becky falls, the quarry of Haytor, Dartmeet and Widecoombe in the Moor which is a must for any visitor to the region. The moorland towns of Bovey Tracey, Ashburton and Buckfastleigh all have their own unique character and quaintness.
The seaside village of Shaldon and its neighbouring town Teignmouth have good beaches which sit either side of the mouth of the river Teign. Teignmouth has a promenade with a pier, swimming pool and an adventure park for the children. So Newton Abbot is the place to visit if you want to have access to the wilderness of the moors or the rugged coastline with its many coves and beaches. There is lots to do and explore including scenic coastal paths which will ensure you see south Devon at its best.
Newton Abbot is on the main Inter-city train route, so one telephone call to THE NEWTON ABBOT TAXI COMPANY, on 01626 818434, you can access all that the area has to offer whether for a day, a night out or for longer, this company is the premier one to use, when moving around Newton Abbot or the surrounding area.
