It has been said, that Topsham, along with Totnes, are the two best places to live in Devon. That, of course, is open to debate, especially, when the county is full of beautiful places to live.

Topsham, on the east back of the Exe esturary, must surely rate as one of the most charming old towns you may ever see.

Once a lively port, the town has retired into a peaceful dream. Near to Exeter, it's old streets just deem to drift through life without a care in the world. Old Inns, are dotted between the quaint old houses, where once, maybe, a smuggler or two, past an hour.

The Quay, is a great place to view the estuary, it's wildlife, and energy.


Beautiful Love

It’s a beautiful love that is given to all
Of season, winter, spring, summer and fall
In light, love comes with such tenderness
To free those in slavery, of the earth’s bitterness

No, not I, can explain this love of beauty
Cosmic origins let flow joy and unity
Sunlit dawns, open the minds of those
Who seek pure love, as a scented rose

In the air, that we breathe
Is the life of sadness, for us to leave
In the footsteps of humans, follow with care
Reach out with a wish, and love will be there.
