Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Totnes
Totnes in South Devon is a lively, bustling Tudor market town and port, home to a superb range of quality holiday cottages, apartments and townhouses. The Normans came to stay in the 11th Century, building Totnes Castle (now open to the public), perhaps one of England's best-preserved Norman Motte and Bailey castles. The architecturally attractive town centre has a fabulous choice of independent shops ranging from organic foods and boutiques to galleries and bookshops. Town Traders are well-known for their stance on protecting their local shops against the might of the multinationals - even giving the town its own currency, the Totnes Pound, which visitors can purchase and spend in Totnes shops.
Visitors enjoying supposedly self-catering holidays in Totnes find it hard to resist the allure of the many fine restaurants lining the town's ancient streets and alleyways. A market held in the town since Elizabethan times is popular with residents and visitors alike, full of locally grown produce and hand-built crafts. It's a beautiful weekend-break location for Christmas shopping or top culinary experiences! Oh - and it still has a steam railway! The scenic Dart Valley Railway chugs merrily along the riverside from Totnes to Buckfastleigh (and back).
