The
landscape of Cockington has been shaped by its inhabitants
for the last thousand years. Our task now is to protect
its special qualities – like the orchards that
once filled the valleys with blossom and the autumn
days with the bustle of cider-making.
We are working to restore Cockington’s traditional character, with the
help of research funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and with the help of the
local community. A booklet titled “Caring for Cockington” sets standards
for maintaining the village and estate and this is available from us, please
contact the main office.
Lanscombe
House Hotel and Tearooms is in the village.
Cockington is home to Torbay's only Woodland Burial Site - part of Conqueror Wood, an 18 acre woodland planted in 2005 to celebrate the Battle of Trafalgar 200 celebrations.
