Take the Torquay Road out of Paignton heading towards Torquay. Continue until you reach the traffic lights at Manor Corner in Preston. You will see an electrical shop on your right on this crossroads called Newton Electric Light Company or NELC. (This shop is currently empty awaiting a new business owner). Turn left into Manor Road and then first right into Old Torquay Road. At the end of this road is a T-junction, turn left into Preston Down Road and then after about 200yds turn left into Langdon Road and almost immediately left into Butland Avenue.

Take the A3022 out of Torquay heading in the direction of Paignton, The road climbs away from Torquay sea front, and then dips downhill, (the site of where the old gasometer used to be is on your right).

Turn right here into Tarraway Road, and take the first left into Great Headland Road. At the T-junction turn right onto Headland Park Road, and then immediately left into Cockington Lane.

Take the A380 out of Exeter heading towards Torquay by way of Haldon Hill. Head towards the Penn Inn roundabout outside Newton Abbot. When you reach the Penn Inn roundabout at Newton Abbot, take the A380 heading for Torquay. At the next roundabout  (recognised by a flower display on its embankment “English Rivera”) turn right up the hill, which is Hamelin Way. Continue straight ahead at the first roundabout into Hellevoetsluis way.


Turn left at the second roundabout into Preston Down Road. Continue down this road. The road name changes as you pass along it, although you do not deviate from this road. As you near the bottom of the hill (tremendous views over the bay), look out for a signpost directing you to “Preston Shops” on the right. Turn right into a small easily missed lane called Cockington Lane, and then take the second right into Langdon Road. After about thirty yards, turn first left into Butland Avenue.

Alternative Route from Exeter and Newton Abbot:

This route avoids the busy stretch from the Penn Inn roundabout at Newton Abbot heading into Torquay. From Newton Abbot town centre, follow signs for Torquay and head towards the Penn Inn roundabout outside Newton Abbot. About fifty yards before you reach the roundabout, turn right into Keyberry Road (signposted Decoy country Park). Pass under the Railway Bridge and onto the mini roundabout. Carry straight on (second exit of mini roundabout). You will pass Decoy Industrial estate on the right, and then over a hump back bridge. At the T-junction turn to the right. Continue until you reach the Village sign “Kingskerswell”. At this point the road forks. Take the left fork, which will lead you straight into a narrow chicane. Take care!


Drive through the village, and up the hill, passing over the crossroads (Huxnor Cross) following the signpost to Marldon and Paignton. This road is Moles Lane. The road winds its way through the countryside and is very narrow in parts. Be careful of oncoming vehicles. The road will bridge the dual carriageway and end in a T-junction. Turn right here and continue about three hundred yards to the roundabout. Turn left here into Hellevoetsluis way (A380), following the signs for Paignton and Brixham.
