Adjacent to the house, A walkers paradise, Cockington is a beautiful village on the outskirts of Torquay. Centre of the village is Cockington Court, owned by the Cary family between 1375/1654 and the Mallock family between 1654/1932, now managed by Torbay Development Agency. The manor house offers a craft centre, the country park a cricket field, walled rose garden and Norman church. The village is home to the Drum Inn, its design attributed to Edwin Lutyens. A water meadow pathway leads from the village to Torquay sea-front (a mile or so distant). For local shopping, a short car journey will take you to Old Mill Road and Walnut Road, where can be found a range of local amenities. The centres of Torquay and Paignton both provide a diverse range of opportunity of shopping, dining and leisure pursuits.
