Fleet Mill Lane

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Unsurfaced lane with deep ruts in places and fist sized rocks. Struggled for grip on a Gravel Bike in the rain but would be fine on a MTB

Totnes Town Centre

Highlight • Settlement

Totnes is a small market town in South Devon, next to the River Dart. Here you can explore the narrow, bustling streets with lots of independent shops and cafés.

Tip by

12.8 km

The Curator Cafe is a great artisan coffee shop in Totnes. They roast and sell coffee beans (or ground) as well as great mugs of coffee, cake, and light meals. Some outside seating and plenty of inside seating. Very friendly.

Cycle path along the River Dart to Totnes

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Very good quality riding along a gravel/tarmac path. Quite a few chicane gates that aren’t particularly wide for mountain bikes or novice riders

Tuckenhay Waterfront on Bow Creek

Highlight • Viewpoint

Tuckenhay is a small hamlet of waterfront houses on Bow Creek. While small, there is still enough room for two pubs in Tuckenhay.

Its history is in papermaking but now you are more likely to see passing kayaks and paddleboards on the tidal creek.

Particularly beautiful in the Autumn when the riverbank is swathed in red and gold.

Greenway House (Agatha Christie's Holiday Home)

Highlight • Historical Site

Greenway has been a crossing point of the Dart for hundreds of years. There was a 16th century Tudor Mansion here called Greenway Court. In 1700 the then owners moved to nearby Crompton Castle and sold Greenway. It passed through several generations until it was re-built in the current Georgian style in the late 1700's. In the early 1800's the Elton family developed the garden and added two wings to the house and paid for a new road and ferry to Dittisham. Over the next few years, the house and estate were further expanded and improved. Then in 1938 some of the estate was sold off and the house with 36 acres of garden and surrounding land was bought by Agatha Christie. They lived there until their deaths in 1976 and 1978. Their daughter lived there until 2004 but the National Trust acquired the house and collections in 2000.
Today you can visit the house and gardens much as they were in Agatha Christies time. It's a beautiful place with a long stretch of river frontage.
National Trust members are free but non-NT members must pay to visit the house and gardens.
