New Picnic Benches – Badock Gardens

Holsworthy Town Council are  pleased to announce the addition of new wooden picnic benches at Badock Gardens – providing the perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful picnic, quiet reflection, or a seat during one of our theatre performances.

We would like to thank The Olde Market Inn for providing these benches and helping us improve this much-loved community area.

Our Town Ranger has sanded and resealed the benches and are now ready for use.

They are the perfect addition to this peaceful garden, offering residents and visitors a place to relax and appreciate the surroundings.

We hope everyone will take the opportunity to enjoy the new seating and the unique atmosphere of Badock Gardens.

Holsworthy Peloton’s Annual Charity Bike Ride

On Sunday 17th August 2025, Holsworthy’s Mayor, Councillor Jon Hutchings, had an early morning start as he was invited to officially set off the riders for the Holsworthy Peloton’s Annual Charity Bike Ride.

Before the event began, the Mayor spoke with a number of participants and welcomed visiting peloton groups from across Devon and Cornwall, including Newquay, Saltash and Ilfracombe.

At 9am, cyclists departed in small groups to take on routes of 25, 42 or 65 miles!

The event was held in support of two local charities: The Holsworthy Area Sports Pavilion and Holsworthy Food Bank.

Holsworthy Town Council would like to congratulate the Holsworthy Peloton for organising such a successful event and thank all the riders who took part to support these important community causes.
