TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Visiting Plymouth: Royal William Yard is worth saving for later in the day. The old naval buildings and waterfront restaurants really come into their own if you do. If you want something less obvious, follow the South West Coast Path east from the Hoe towards Jennycliff for quieter views back across Plymouth Sound. It gives you a much better sense of how strongly the city is shaped by the sea."
