The Parent’s "No-Stress" Checklist: Exmouth to Topsham

  • 🍦 The Best Ice Cream Stop: Keep the kids pedalling with a promise of The Galley or Topsham Quay for local Devon scoops.
  • 🚻 Emergency Toilet Stops:
    • Start: Exmouth Train Station (near our delivery point).
    • Mid-way: Lympstone Village (public toilets near the Swan Inn).
    • End: Topsham Quay (large public block).
  • 🚲 Safety First: The route to Topsham is 99% traffic-free, making it the safest "adventure" for little ones on their own bikes or in our Dog & Child Trailers.
  • 🧺 Picnic Spot: The grassy area at Bowling Green Marsh offers incredible bird watching and a quiet place to refuel before the final stretch into Topsham.
  • 🚂 The "I'm Tired" Backup: If the kids have run out of steam, you can hop on the Avocet Line train from Topsham back to Exmouth. (Note: Check bike space availability!)
