  • Join me as we drive down Babbacombe Downs to Beach Road and the Cary Arms Boutique Hotel and Spa. It is a very steep road - 30% in places - let's hope we don't meet anyone or another vehicle on the way down and back up!

    i remember when when uncle milke's milk float lost control going down here in the snow and he ended up in the sea. to this day you can still find the sea smoothed glass from his broken bottles on the beach. very funny morning that one. we were all too busy laughing to notice him drown.

    When I was teaching my kids to drive I used to make them drive down that hill, turn around at the bottom and drive back up and of course a hill start at the give way at the top.

      No they were OK, I didn't do it straight off but once they were confident it was fine. We live just outside of Torquay so I would take them all around the Warberries area also steep and narrow to build up their confidence, and it worked they both passed first time fairly quickly. I really enjoy seeing my home area from other people's perspective.
