Devon Coastlines & Longleat Safari - England
Coach Tours - 5 Days

Tour Highlights
• Longleat House, Gardens and Safari Park • South Devon Coastlines • Seaton • Sidmouth

In the heart of the Dorset countryside, the small town of Sherborne has lots of charm and history, with its mellow stone architecture and interesting speciality shops.You can discover an abbey, which dates from Saxon times, a ruined castle that was once the home of Sir Walter Raleigh, and a famous boy’s public school, founded in 1550. It’s a wonderful touring base too, allowing us to combine the very best of the Devon coastline plus a great day out at Longleat House and Safari Park.

Devon Coastlines & Longleat Safari - Your Excursions
FULL DAY
DAY: A relatively short journey takes us into Wiltshire for a special visit to Longleat, where a Day Passport Ticket is included, enabling you to take in all the attractions. Longleat House, the 16th century stately home has sumptuously furnished rooms, with some magnificent tapestries, whilst the extensive grounds were landscaped by ‘Capability’ Brown in the 18th century. But there is much more to enjoy, including a renowned safari park, mazes, Butterfly Garden, a narrow gauge railway plus gift and craft shops. There will be plenty of time to explore at your leisure before returning to Sherborne.
FULL DAY
Our second full day tour takes us to the South Devon coast, where a succession of small resorts are set between cliffs and wooded hills. Our first stop is at Seaton, where there’s an opportunity to ride on the restored tramway, following the River Axe, if you wish. From here we drive along the coast to Sidmouth, a genteel resort set between distinctive red cliffs, which has an air of Victorian prosperity.
