Albeit late but here comes 'Summer'

A break in the rain clouds and blue skies! Great news for those anglers taking Fishing Holidays in Devon!

Listed below are just a few of the things you could do here in South Devon with 30 minutes travelling time from Newbarn Farm - probably the best Self-Catering Cottages with Fishing in the area!


For those who enjoy mystery, murder, chills and thrills - you'll love the production of 'And Then There Were None' at the Princess Theatre in Torquay, with performances showing from 15th September through until 20th September. It will have you gripped in your seats and curling your toes with fear! Keeping on the Agatha Christie trail why not enjoy a cruise from the quay at Torquay to Greenway (nr Brixham - a famously unspoilt Devon Fishing Holiday harbour town), followed by a guided tour of the famous writer's garden, with tea to follow.

For those wishing to get back to nature and enjoy some simple food preparation why not make the most of a FREE experience at Follaton Arboretum in Totnes - meet there Sunday 21st September, for a morning of harvesting Autumn Berries, followed by plenty of earthsome cooking in the afternoon. Learn new skills by making autumn produce for Trees for Health and sample some delicious deserts!
For more food try out The Abbfest - the Abbotskerswell Beer and Food Festival taking place from Sunday 21st - Tuesday 23rd September. In addition to being able to sample over 100 beers and ciders - all produced in Devon, 50 local food producers will be displaying their produce on the 22nd and 23rd - with plenty of traditional fayre. There will be free food tasting and cookery demonstrations by some of the best local Chefs, including John Burton Race.

And for a little adventure, take the minibus safari with the ranger into the depths of Haldon Forest, then walk over rough terrain in places - to see and hear the rut of the rare Black Fallow Deer, seen in the picture here. This will be followed by a well deserved full breakfast at a local establishment (vegetarian option available). £15 per person, an early start at 6.30am on the morning of Saturday 11th October.

And for a spot of fishing Newbarn Farm offers probably some of the best coarse fishing in South Devon, six fishing lakes and ponds to choose from. Just a gentle stroll from your four star luxury self-catering cottage & fishing, or for those laden down with plenty of fishing gear you could just pack in the car and drive to one of of water side car parks - what more could you ask for? A great Devon Fishing Holiday.
