When my mother was searching for a guest house to buy in 1964, we looked at one set right into the hillside, overlooking the railway line, in Dawlish. There was the most incredibly steep stairway from the top of the house to the front door, and we didn't buy it on the basis that one trip and we'd bowl straight out under the wheels of the 4.15 from Torquay! I love the red soil around there, and the wonderful rocky outcrops. Very dramatic when the sea and sky are intensely blue.
