Cockington Court Craft Centre is operated by Torbay Development Agency as a visitor attraction and innovation centre to support small creative businesses in the Bay.

Cockington Court has undergone extensive renovation at a cost of £2.85m, part funded by the European Development Fund, Torbay Council and CABE, transforming the former aristocratic home into office space, craft studios and function rooms, in 460 acres of country park, managed by Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust.
