COCKINGTON COURT AND COUNTRY PARK


Only a mile from Torquay seafront, the Domesday Book village of Cockington has hardly changed through the centuries. Come and explore this special village, its historic manor house and the 460 acres of parkland, woodland and farmland around. It is completely free to enter and you can lose yourself here for a whole day! Open daily all year round.

Cockington Court is home to ten working craft studios. Click to visit Cockington Craft Centre

We currently have craft studios available to rent. For further details please contact Kate Foster in the Main Trust Office on 01803 606035

Cockington's Ark Play Area

Cockington’s Ark Play Area is open all year round and can be found at the rear of the court, behind the car park. The Ark is specifically designed to be used by disabled and able-bodied children. The play area has been a joint effort between Friends of Special Needs Children (FOSNeC) and Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust. It includes a wheelchair seesaw, a turning stone, sound boxes, a singing stone, a water feature with seesaw pump and fountain, as well as slides and ramps.

COCKINGTON COUNTRY PARK CELEBRATES 11 YEARS OF GREEN FLAG AWARDS

Cockington Country Park, one of Torbay's most spectacular, historic green spaces has been awarded a prestigious Green Flag for the 11th year running - one of only five parks across the UK.

This is the eleventh consecutive year Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust has received the Green Flag Award, a nationally recognised scheme for quality, which aims to raise the standards of our green spaces. Judges look for spaces which are welcoming, healthy and safe, clean and well-maintained, as well as areas which are sustainable and involve the local community. Winners vary from Victorian parks and town centre gardens to nature reserves, country parks and cemeteries.
