Berry Head National Nature Reserve guards the southern half of Torbay. One of the Gateways to the English Riviera Global Geopark, it is an internationally-acclaimed heritage site, home to a fascinating variety of wildlife and history, with recently restored Napoleonic-War fortifications. Enjoy the stunning views and superb local food at our new Guardhouse Cafe, visit our brand-new Visitor Centre or one of our events, and walk the ramparts as the soldiers did 200 years ago.
