    Try in Thurlestone. Family is from there and while it is near to Salcombe it's far enough away you won't be with all the yuppies. The Thurlestone hotel is more aimed at golfers so may be quieter at...

    Ahh good to know. It's one of those watches that I'd buy and then it would sit in the box where I can look at it with a hint of nostalgia about when I was young and had so little to worry about.
