It is the first time the tourism organisation, Devon's Top Attractions, has handed out the prize.
It was introduced to encourage all 30 members to aim for the highest possible standards in their toilet facilities.
The loos at all the attractions were included in the regular inspections and 'mystery shopper' visits, and graded on their cleanliness, décor, hygiene, maintenance, signage and air quality.
