"A breeze through the bucolic East Devon countryside, the Donkey Sanctuary in Sidmouth rests in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Here, free of charge, you can meet some of the hundreds of donkeys that this charity rescues every year.
There are also indoor attractions to visit, like the Visitor Centre, and Understanding Donkeys Zone, which detail the international work done by the sanctuary and tells you everything you need to know about these equines.
At Dr Svendsen’s Hut you can hear about Dr Elisabeth Svendsen, who founded the Donkey Sanctuary in the 1970s.
There’s also a maze, grooming sessions, walking trails and a restaurant with views over the paddocks and out to sea."

"A quick drive or 15-minute train ride from Exeter Central station, the Topsham Museum is one of a row of 17th-century merchants’ houses by the Exe.
Thanks to its location at a sheltered spot at the head of the estuary, Topsham once had shipbuilding docks that assembled early-19th-century warships like HMS Terror and HMS Cyan, and there are exhibitions about this heritage.
The museum has a collection of much smaller vessels that used to travel on the Exe, while a number of rooms have been furnished in a period style.
An unexpected treat is the set of memorabilia for the film star Vivien Leigh, including a dress she wore as Scarlett O’Hara in Gone with the Wind."

"Both the mild climate and sandstone soils around Exeter are suited to winemaking, and at Pebblebed you can visit the winery and have a chat with the vintner.
Pebblebed grows Merlot, Rodo, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Seyval Blanc and Madeleine Angervine, and welcomes visitors to its vineyard just outside Topsham from May to September.
The label also runs a cellar in the village, just upstream from the quay, where you can sample wines from its range along with tapas made from local ingredients."
