Shopping
in South Devon
PLYMOUTH
The largest shopping centre in the Devon &
Cornwall Plymouth has a large pedestrianised area
in which its Department Stores and Shops are located.
Within this area are many restaurants and close
by are the Theatre Royal and Pavilions Entertainment
Areas. Of particular note are the small shops in
the historic Barbican area where the National Marine
Aquarium is based. Movement between the areas can
be by foot with well-developed route ways linking
the various parts of the city or by the Tourist
Open Bus that visits all the major attractions regularly
all the year round. Parking is well signposted and
the city has a number of Park & Ride Schemes
in operation. Open all year.
TOTNES
Principally a small market town with many niche
craft & art shops and small restaurants. Its
prime position in central south Devon has helped
it develop as a centre for antique trading. Open
all year.
SALCOMBE
An excellent coastal location the development of
Salcombe has a maritime retail focus. Not cheap
but certainly a wide range of shopping for those
with leisure in mind! Parking is best achieved through
the Park & Ride particularly in summer!
DARTMOUTH
Similar
to Salcombe but far larger and open all year. Wider
range of shops and restaurants but again use the
Park & Ride in the summer!
