The West Country / Devon region

Devon has long been a favourite destination for British holidaymakers, with perfect beaches and great walking. Dartmoor and Exmoor are remote and unspoilt, with ancient remains scattered across the moor land. Devon is also home of the ‘British Riviera’ – Torquay, Paignton and Brixham offer traditional seaside breaks complete with tearooms, arcades and the local speciality of clotted cream and scones.

Beautiful South Hams, the English Riviera. Unspoilt beaches, dramatic coastal walks.
