From the M5 Motorway or the A30 join the A38 southbound in the direction of Plymouth. Take the left lane at a major road division for Torquay on the A380 signposted overhead. 

Travel up the very long steep hill. DO NOT take the B3192 sign-posted Teignmouth and Shaldon but carry on for approximately 5 miles and take a left turn onto the A381, also sign-posted to Teignmouth & Shaldon. 

Follow this picturesque route and when coming down the hill into Teignmouth, take the right hand slip lane at the traffic lights and turn right, going over Shaldon Bridge and follow the signs for Torquay on the A379. Continue on this road keeping the coast on your left. There is a large lay-by on this road, well worth a short stop to admire the view! 

After approximately 4 miles you will approach a small roundabout, continue straight on, keeping the golf course on your left. Go up the hill and across the next small roundabout into St Marychurch. Follow the road round to the left and go straight over at the traffic lights. Take the third turning on the right into York Road and The Babbacombe Palms is immediately on your right.
