Jacob's Ladder is one of Sidmouth's two large beaches. An expanse of sand and shingle, the beach gets its name from the series of wooden steps that lead down from Connaught Gardens. Whilst the beach can be accessed via the steps it is also possible to walk around from the town's main beach via a level path. At the top of the step system there is a cafe leading to the gardens, this can be a good place to visit after a coastal run

Plenty of eateries/drinks to be had along the esplanade

This is rideable on most bikes that don't have lightweight tyres. I've cycled it on my touring/gravel bike and my Brompton without issues.

Passable on a road bike. better off with a Gravel Bike or BMX

At the heart of village of Whimple is a village square and a Norman Church, St Mary's. Although fairly small, there are two pubs, a village shop and a post office. The tradition of Wassailing is enjoyed in Whimple on 17th January and it attracts many spectators. Wassailing is a pagan practice of visiting orchards on the old twelfth night to sing songs and make a lot of noise to the fruit trees to ward off bad spirits and to please the spirits of the fruit trees.

Broadclyst is situated in the Killerton Estate, owned by the National Trust. Yellow cottages line the main road which marks them out as being part of the estate. Here you will find a number of thatched cottages and even a thatched bus shelter. In 1870, a huge fire swept through the village which left 250 people homeless. Houses rebuilt after the fire are known as 'New Buildings' with around 30 original medieval properties which survived the fire.

Jacob's Ladder is the beach at the western end of Sidmouth and gets its name from the steep wooden staircase that lead down to the sand. At the top of the staircase is Connaught Gardens, a public park since 1924.

Cliffs flank either side of Sidmouth Esplanade which has been the scene of promenading since the 18th century. Until then, Sidmouth was a quiet fishing village but the fashionable appetite for fresh sea air brought people flocking to take in its restorative climate. Notable visitors include Jane Austen. The York Hotel, at the east end of the Esplanade was Sidmouth's first purpose built hotel and regency buildings can be seen all along the sea front.

Eat in or take-away. Adjoining the excellent Halberton Court Farm Shop.

Visit the old Fox's factory (check opening dates) on Steam up days when you can see the whole process from carding to the finished cloth and grab a coffee as well.
