Teignmouth is a coastal town in the English Riviera and South Devon region of Devon . It is on the north bank of the estuary mouth of the River Teign in an area of the South Devon coast that is famed for its red sandstone cliffs. It had a population of approx 15,000 in 2021.
In 1690, it was the last place in England to be invaded by a foreign power, when a contingent of the French fleet anchored of Torbay attacked the town. The town grew from a fishing port associated with the Newfoundland cod industry to a fashionable resort of some note in Georgian times, with further expansion after the opening of the South Devon Railway in 1846.
Its port still operates, and the town remains a popular seaside holiday location.
Don't call it "TAYN-mouth". It's "TIN-muth".

Teignmouth station is served by Crosscountry and Great Western Railway trains. The journey from Exeter is famous for its beauty as it hugs the red sandstone cliffs with great views out to open sea. It is worth getting the train to Exeter just for the journey.
Teignmouth is 15 mi (24 km) from 50.734444 -3.413889 2 Exeter Airport ( EXT IATA ) which has scheduled flights to many destinations in the UK and Europe.
Most of Teignmouth can easily be reached by foot. Taxis can be found near the train station. Buses leave from the centre of town for Exeter, Torquay and Newton Abbot.
The beach and promenade stretch the entire length of the town and there is a Victorian pier and promenade.
There is a children's play area and mini golf on the grass area by the beach front called 'The Den'.
The South West Coast Path , which passes through the town, is a great way to see the coast in this part of Devon.
Every summer Teignmouth hosts a folk festival, jazz festival and carnival.

Teignmouth is a pleasant seaside town nestling below the Haldon Hills . It lies along a stretch of red sandstone coast on the attractive estuary of the River Teign , beneath the shadow of Dartmoor . There are panoramic views from the high ground around the town. Teignmouth claims record-breaking hours of sunshine and its geographical position ensures mild weather conditions for much of the time. The town is in a convenient position for Dartmoor National Park, and within easy reach of both Exeter and Plymouth .
Teignmouth had suffered a devastating invasion by the French in 1690 and the town reinvented itself in the 8th and 19th centuries. When the railway opened up the coast in the 1840s, Teignmouth became the second most popular health resort in Devon. The previous trades of salt production and fishing gave way to the demands of tourism. The 19th century saw an influx of new business and consequently a number of new buildings. Boat building was a major local industry and most commodities were brought in under sail. As local business increased so did waterway traffic. Clay and granite quarried nearby were important exports. The Quay is constructed from this granite.
There were a number of air raids during the Second World War, resulting in today’s interesting mix of architectural styles. Large Victorian buildings dominate the seafront whilst Georgian cottages line the narrow streets behind. The Assembly Rooms , later to become the local cinema, were built in 1826 and a wooden toll bridge was constructed to cross the Teign at around the same time. The latter structure was replaced by a more substantial bridge in 1931. The bridge and old toll house are listed buildings. A diminutive Orangery from 1842 can be found in Bitton Park . John Keats wrote part of Endymion whilst living in what is now known as Keats House in 1818. These attractive 19th century houses were the homes of such people as marine artist Thomas Luny and Charles Babbage , father of the computer. There are several fine Regency houses in the residential part of the town.
Teignmouth Museum is located on French Street and has some interesting exhibitions of local history. It also has a collection of artefacts retrieved from the wreck of one of the ships of the Spanish Armada. St James’ Church has an interesting octagonal tower constructed in 1820.
Today the small resort boasts a growing colony of artists. It also hosts live theatre, an annual jazz festival, a regatta and a carnival. There are lots of cycling and walking opportunities in the area in addition to many water sports. Only a few miles to the north east is the pretty resort of Dawlish , where the railway line hugs the coast offering fantastic views of the rocky shore.
On the opposite bank of the Teign is Shaldon . This small town offers lovely views of the river and some impressive Regency buildings. To the north of the town is the Shaldon Wildlife Trust , a breeding centre for rare species of small animals, reptiles and birds.

Teignmouth is a town in Teignbridge situated on the north bank of the estuary mouth of the River Teign about 14 miles south of Exeter.
The town grew from a fishing port associated with the Newfoundland cod industry to a fashionable resort of some note in Georgian times, with further expansion after the opening of the South Devon Railway in 1846. Today, its port still operates and the town is a popular seaside holiday location.
Teignmouth Pier has amusement arcade and rides. The beach wraps around the spit at the head of the river Teign providing a river beach, commonly known as the Back Beach, on the estuary side which overlooks the harbour with its moorings for many pleasure craft, and has views up the estuary to Dartmoor.
An 18-mile (29 km) long waymarked route known as the Templer Way has been created between Haytor on Dartmoor and Shaldon. It closely follows the route of George Templer's granite tramway, his father James's Stover Canal and finally the estuary to Teignmouth.
Teignmouth Carnival is held during the last week of July with the procession on the last Thursday, and since 1999 the town has hosted a summer folk festival.

Teignmouth – the gem of south devon.
There are plenty of things to do in Teignmouth Devon. Teignmouth is one of Devon’s oldest seaside resorts, and Woodlands is only a five to ten minute walk away from the town centre. Teignmouth has a stunning coastline, fantastic views and large areas of sandy beach where dogs are allowed all year round. But apart from the beach there are a lot of things to do, even when the sun doesn’t shine.
Tourist attractions in Teignmouth include amusements on the pier , crazy golf and tennis courts . The town museum is award winning, and the harbour area and back beach has a charm of its own.
Teignmouth high street is not full of chains but has some great independent shops, pubs and restaurants catering for all tastes and budgets, and we would be very happy to recommend some of our favourite haunts. We are also lucky to have the Teignmouth Pavilion Theatre which hosts live performances and comedy as well as a cinema.
We have a selection of maps and guidebooks to help you choose from the wide variety of activities that take place in all seasons and weathers.
The nearest village to Teignmouth is Shaldon, just over the River Teign. Shaldon and Teignmouth have the oldest working passenger ferry in the UK that can take you there. Shaldon is a very picturesque village which has a zoo , more drinking establishments, footpaths, cafes and another couple of wonderful sandy beach, one accessed by a smugglers tunnel through the cliffs.
Teignmouth Devon is developing a big reputation as a resort for cultural events. Music events are the main theme, with a classical music festival in March and a folk festival in June.
There is also a wider and growing thriving arts scene here. In the last week of July Teignmouth Carnival offers a week of mainly free family fun, and, after the Shaldon Water Carnival , Regatta week takes over for Teignmouth in the first week of August, and then finally the Shaldon Regatta over the late August Bank Holiday week.
There’s also an airshow in Teignmouth in the Summer. There are lots of activities to do in Teignmouth whatever the weather. For details of these south west events please see the very informative website visitsouthdevon.co.uk , or the Teignmouth Oracle Facebook page.
Not surprisingly Teignmouth is also a big centre for watersports. We can offer weekend packages for deep sea fishing, or learning to dive at Teignmouth’s well-regarded dive school . The water sports centre on the back river beach offers short or long courses in sailing, canoes, windsurfing, powerboats etc. Finally, the sea safari offers short and long tours around the beautiful coastline where sitings of dolphins and seals are common.
Just across the mouth of the river Teign is the beautiful Devon fishing village of Shaldon. You can reach it by crossing the river on the oldest passenger ferry in the country or by walking across the historic Shaldon bridge .
Shaldon is an unspoilt village with a thriving community atmosphere, right on the seafront with it’s own two sandy beaches. Shaldon beach is in the village and ideal for swimming, sailing, rowing, paddling, paddle boarding, canoeing and kayaking. At high tide, large container ships enter the narrow estuary mouth to dock in Teignmouth – they are quite a sight! Ness Cove beach is accessed through a Victorian ‘smugglers’ tunnel’.
Shaldon isn’t as commercial as many of the more famous south Devon towns and villages, but it has a range of excellent food establishments and is perfect for a relaxing holiday to experience Devon village life firsthand.
Teignmouth is incredibly well connected; we are only ten minutes from the M5 and on the main railway line from London, so ideally situated for exploring Devon and other parts of the southwest.
From here it is easy to explore Dartmoor as well as take a trip along the cost by car, train or even open top bus in the summer, to other well-known seaside resorts like Torquay, Paignton, Brixham and Exmouth. There’s much to explore in our historic towns here, such as Dartmouth and Totnes, and the cathedral city of Exeter with its great shopping, river walks, cultural events and historic buildings, is only a short train ride away.
Teignmouth also offers itself as a useful base for exploring much of the south west and the steam railway . There are many National Trust houses and gardens nearby, such as Greenway , Agatha Christie’s house on the River Dart, Killerton House and Compton Castle and if you like steam trains you can take one that goes between Buckfastleigh along the river Dart to Totnes. Haytor , the start of the Templer Way walk to Teignmouth can be seen from the estuary side beach.
For rainy days there are cinemas in Newton Abbot, Exeter and Torquay. Within a few miles of Teignmouth are the cycle trails and cycle hire at Haldon Forest and along the Exe Estuary, centres for horse riding and pony trekking, golf courses at Teignmouth and Dawlish Warren.

Teignmouth Town Beach has that classic British summer holiday feel with a long sandy beach, Victorian pier, promenade and pastel-coloured buildings.
Local watersports are also on offer at the beach if you want to try kayaking, coasteering or paddleboarding during the warmer months.
The beach features a classic Victorian Pier where you can find traditional seaside amusements and ice cream and coffee shops.
Walking past the pier invokes a sense of seaside holiday nostalgia for anyone whose family holidays were to the British seaside.
Whilst there is still a lot of renovation work to be done on the 152-year-old Teignmouth Grand Pier it’s still a great place to indulge in seaside holiday reminiscing and a 99 with a flake.
The Teignmouth beachfront also features a long promenade, perfect for a slow arm in arm stroll for soaking up some seaside vibes.
If you have brought the family with you, you will also find a play park, crazy golf, skate park and ice cream huts to keep the kids entertained.
If you have a stroll along the promenade when the winds up, you can also watch the waves crash dramatically against the wall.
If you are in the Teignmouth area I would recommend catching the ferry to the pretty village of Shaldon.
There is a daily passenger ferry from Teignmouth to Shaldon, [and by ferry, they mean adorable fishing boat, operated by a weathered Devonshire sailor], that runs between the two towns.
The skies were unseasonable blue for February, the sea was choppy and the wind was whipping around our faces, as we made the short crossing.
It certainly was a bracing day to be at sea, as the small boat navigated over choppy waters.
My favourite part of the experience was the negotiation of the return journey, “What time do you go back to Teignmouth?’ Luke innocently enquired.
This was met with a look of total bafflement, “When the sign is out of course” said the captain, gesturing to a sandwich board sign,
“If the sign is out, then the boat is running.” Obviously, we were unfamiliar with the Devonshire method of ferry schedules.
If you are looking to inject a little culture into your seaside holiday, then make sure to visit Pavilions Teignmouth .
This contemporary performing arts centre has a range of theatre shows, comedy nights, dance shows and films.
They also have a rather lovely cafe bar that serves great food with beautiful seaside views.
This independent cafe serves a cracking range of home-cooked and reasonably priced breakfasts that will help you start the day right.
The Oystercatcher is an inviting and friendly cafe that places great emphasis on great service, local produce and delicious food.
Choose from a range of top-notch breakfasts including their famous ‘Fisherman’s breakfast’, Steak & Eggs, Vegan breakfast, Eggs Espagnol and Eggs Florentine.
Your inner child demands that you visit Smuggler’s Tunnel, a historic passageway in Shaldon that leads you to the hidden Ness Cove.
Get the ferry from Teignmouth to Shaldon and explore this little piece of local history and legend.
Ness Cove is a unique beach only accessible by foot. Walkthrough a long, bricked tunnel that runs through the headland and comes out at the pretty sheltered cove.
There are several theories about how the Ness Cove tunnel came to be including a smugglers tunnel and a secret tunnel built by a local family.
Many locals also their own particular take on what the tunnel was used for.
It’s a well-lit tunnel and it only takes a few minutes to walk through.
The real challenge is trying to stop one’s husbands from shouting a series of rude words in the tunnel ‘to hear them echo’. Thank god he is cute.
It’s definitely worth making your way over to Shaldon to traverse the tunnel and admire Ness Cove.
Ness Cove is a lovely place for a little afternoon walk and is incredibly photogenic. Remember to bring your cameras, especially if its a glorious day.
Have a bracing walk along the South Devon Railway Sea Wall, Britain’s most photographed stretch of railway line.
The start of this walk is near Teignmouth railway station , and there is also a station at Dawlish Warren midway along the walk.
Walking from Teignmouth to Dawlish offers ramblers spectacular seaside and country views
Part of this walk goes underneath the railway and is impassable at high tide.
So, unless you fancy getting your feet wet, so be sure to check the tide times before you set off.
We started in Teignmouth and followed the path all the way to the town of Dawlish.
We had perfect winter weather that day, with bright blue skies but with a frosty chill in the air.
The walk is also next to the railway line, so every few minutes a train will rush by, prompting Luke to excitedly shout “Choo-choo” at every train.
This got rather trying after the 15th train, so I had to distract him with discussions of what pub we would visit in Dawlish.
Once you reach Dawlish, make sure to walk up the cliffs for the most stunning views of Dawlish and the coastal railway line
If you are into travel photography , you can take beautiful photographs of the town, the sea and railway line from above, especially if the weather is being particularly kind to you that day.
At first glance, the Ship Inn might appear to be just your average British boozer. Slightly dated, in need of a lick of paint and a little bit of love.
However, what makes the Ship Inn special is the stunning views up the Teign Estuary. They have a fantastic garden bar that is smack bang on the beachfront.
It’s frankly the best spot in Teignmouth for watching the sunset with a cheeky glass of wine.
On sunny days customers sit on tables, walls, the beach, anywhere really. It’s such a lively atmosphere when the weather is pleasant and is definitely worth a visit.
Dawlish is a traditional seaside town, with a sandy beach right on its doorstep. The town features amusement arcades, lawns, scenic walks and fabulous cafes.
You can walk from Teignmouth to Dawlish along the South West Coast Path, get the train, or drive over. Dawlish is only 3 miles away from Teignmouth.
The pretty town is probably best known for its iconic lawn and brook, which is home to the famous black swans.
The lawns are a perfect place for a picnic or for a spot of people watching in the centre of town. You can also get some fantastic snaps when the sun is out.
Some of the best things to do in Dawlish include:
There are lots of lovely cafes in Dawlish serving a range of cream teas, homemade cakes and delicious coffees.
Make sure to have coffee at the lovely Strand Cafe in the centre of town if you are looking for a decent coffee and cake stop.
We managed to bag the window seat so we could have a morning of coffee drinking and relax in this quaint little town.
Venture outside of Teignmouth to enjoy a range of watersports in South Devon.
Head to Exminster, [around 25 minutes away from Teignmouth], to discover a range of watersports including kayaking, canoeing and stand up paddling.
I would definitely recommend going paddleboarding along the Exeter canal on a sunny day.
Arrive at the pub in style on a giant paddleboard and take in those countryside views as you glide down the Exeter canal.
Local outdoor company Exe Adventures took us for a picturesque paddle to the Double Locks Pub for a cheeky little Devonshire cider.
“Do you have a change of clothes?” nervously asked our guide, Sam, surveying my jeans and cashmere scarf.
“No, but don’t worry, I’m not planning on falling in” came my overconfident, breezy reply.
This was to primarily disguise the fact I am far too disorganised to pack towels and changes of clothes.
Luckily, I have done a fair bit of paddle boarding, so I managed to stay upright during our paddle to the pub and back.
Darling husband has only been once before so he took a fair amount of coaxing to get him to stand up, as well as the promise of a Guinness when we reached the pub.
The Double Locks is a lovely little waterside pub, populated by weathered Devonshire men with dogs by the fire, exactly how I imagine a Devonshire pub to be.
We had a swift pint before embarking on our gentle paddle back. We had a marvellous afternoon with Exe Adventures and we are still very smug about staying dry.
Hop across the water to Shaldon to have a sustainable lunch with a view at Cafe Ode in Ness Cove.
This friendly and sustainably-minded cafe has a constantly changing menu, with dishes served up in nifty bio packaging.
The Fish was extremely flaky with a perfect, crispy batter. There is surely nothing worse than a soggy fish and chips to ruin a lunchtime outing?
Their clam chowder was also full of delicious sea flavours, I often find that clam chowder either too salty or too bland, but the Cafe Ode Chowder was well seasoned.
One of the best features of Cafe Ode is the gorgeous sea view that can be admired from its many seating areas.
We chose to warm ourselves by the open fire and gaze out to sea from the large windows.
It’s also the little touches that make Cafe Ode a special place to visit. From the chalkboard menus, commitment to sustainability, mini microbrewery, to the dress-up box for kids to play with.
It’s a unique spot by the sea and well worth visiting foodie fans.
South Devon has a plethora of cosy pubs to snuggle up in and hearty dishes to try.
The Anchor Inn is located in Cockwood, a short drive from Teignmouth and is the perfect place for a romantic meal in Dawlish.
There are all the elements of a proper, seaside pub here with low wooden beams, seaside paraphernalia, roaring fire and a selection of fine ales.
We had delicious homemade steak and ale pie and slow-roasted belly pork for our mains and dear lord were they filling.
Portion sizes here are huge, you certainly won’t go away feeling hungry. Despite declaring myself ‘absolutely full’, the rather charming waiter upsold me on Affogato as dessert.
Italian desserts are my weakness and I was powerless to say no. I’m glad I decided to order though, with crunch biscotti, smooth espresso as well as a cheeky shot of Kahlúa. Perfection.
One of the most scenic railway journeys in Britain is The South Devon Railway Line, the ‘Riviera Line’.
This line runs along the coast from Exeter to Newton Abbot and gives passengers incredible views along the Exe Estuary and out to sea.
The train journey time between Exeter St David’s and Newton Abbot is around 31 minutes.
The line runs right along the coast next to the iconic red-brown cliffs and through series of tunnels, literally a few metres from the shoreline.
If you are looking for a short scenic journey, you could just take the train from Teignmouth to Dawlish Warren and then spend the day exploring the Dawlish area.
The best value train ticket for this journey is an Off-Peak Day Return. This is perfect if you leave after peak times in the morning and return on the same day.
This type of train ticket is perfect for exploring the Riviera line in one day.
You can hop on and off at the various Devonshire stations along the way, as long as you keep going in the same direction of travel.
Ticket prices start around £8.20 for the Exeter-Paignton Riviera Line and you can also buy them on the day at the station.
Check train times and prices on the National Rail website for further information.
Teignmouth has a brilliant range of accommodation if you’re looking for somewhere to stay for the weekend?
Choose from local hotels, traditional B&B’s, caravans, camping sites and self-catering holiday cottages.
You can find a hotel to suit your budget and length of time by using travel resources such as Booking.com to find the best hotel deals in the area.
Some of the best places to stay in Teignmouth and the surrounding area include:
We stayed in Cofton’s Estuary View Hot Tub Cottage with Cofton Holidays in nearby Dawlish.
Cofton Holidays is an award-winning and family-run holiday park set in the Devonshire countryside.
You can choose from a selection of accommodation options including holiday homes, cottages, or apartments.
Our cottage was located within the picturesque Eastdon Estate and had lovely views of the surrounding farmland.
We were about 2 miles away from the main holiday park, so it was perfect for a romantic escape.
Set amongst pretty Devon farmland, with its own private hot tub, our cottage was seriously luxurious.
In our cottage, there were 2 lovely bedrooms, a bathroom, fully-fitted kitchen with an open plan lounge and diner to unwind in.
The entire living space has a design that I can only describe as ‘Pinterest goals’.
There’s Egyptian cotton bed linen, dressing gowns, all manner of upscale kitchenware.
The cottage also had a private patio area with hot tub, BBQ and table and chairs.
There is even a bird table outside, complete with adorable and curious wildlife to watch.
Obviously, the main attraction for us was the private hot tub at our cottage.
We would frankly live in a hot tub if we thought we could get away with it.
There is nothing more lovely than enjoying an afternoon wine in a relaxing, bubbling hot tub, after all, it’s Ireland somewhere right?
Our cottage stay also included complimentary passes to the heated indoor pool, gym, steam room and sauna on the main holiday park.
There is also a cafe, restaurants, gaming areas as well as coarse fishing and fitness classes on-site.
It definitely reminds me of the traditional family holiday parks I used to visit as a child, so my time there was very much a giant nostalgia fest.
I would definitely recommend a stay here if you are looking for a classic British holiday experience, with a touch of luxury.
It’s easy to write off Teignmouth as just another faded British seaside town, with its best days long behind it.
If you actually take the time to properly explore this coastal spot in Devon, there is much to be discovered.
The architecture here includes highly Instagrammable, historic Georgian buildings, dotted with pretty palm trees.
You can also walk along the gorgeous coastline with a bag of chips and listen to the sound of the ocean as a wonderful way to pass a few hours.
There is a mix of retro fun as well as modern attractions in Teignmouth. You can stroll along the historic Grand Pier and drop some coins into the arcade games, or have an artsy afternoon at the Lenkiewicz Art Gallery.
There are also many coffee shops, restaurants and sea view pubs to enjoy a cheeky glass of wine from.
I would really recommend a visit to this underrated part of South Devon for your next UK holiday.
