Sightseeing
Beautiful seaside village on the other side of the estuary from Teignmouth. Around 30mins from Shizen Lodge, worth visiting the local cafes or the ODE cafe at the main car park. There is a zoo nearby, and the tourist attractions of Teignmouth via the road bridge or passenger ferryboat

Arts & Culture
Totnes is an iconic "transition town", with a vibrant alternative scene, not a Starbucks to be had in sight, and great eco credentials. Enjoy the high street and market square area where you can get as much organic locally-sourced produce as you like, incense and crystals, or enjoy a potter around the streets to see an eclectic mix of ancient homes and ultra modern passive homes. Check out the local postings for music events, yoga classes and shamanic astrology. There's always something going on!
