Enjoying the best spot at Paignton Air Show

Enjoying the best spot at Paignton Air Show

Every year, over 200,000 people descend on Paignton during the three-day air show festival. If you’ve braved it yourself, you’ll know how packed the crowds are.

But this year, our new residents and staff team in Paignton were blessed with probably the best spot to watch. Our new Cove House sits above Fairy Cove in Paignton with an 180-degree view of the harbour.

Sitting in their deck chairs above the harbour, the group were treated to the Red Arrows, fireworks and a delicious BBQ.

“It was wonderful to see our new residents and team come together to enjoy such a special event in such an incredible location,” says Lydia, YMCA Exeter’s Torbay Housing Manager and Warden. “Moments like these really highlight the sense of community we’re building at Cove House, and it’s brilliant to be able to share experiences like the air show from what has to be one of the best views in Paignton.”

We’ll all be wanting to join them next year!!
