The south west of England is a rural peninsula with a beautiful coastline along both the Bristol Channel and the English Channel. The eight regions - Devon, Cornwall, Wiltshire, Cotswolds, Dorset, Somerset, Bristol and Isles of Scilly - each with their own unique character and attractions to explore.
On the end of the peninsula and swirling in myth and legend, the north coast has towering cliffs and surf, while the south is gentler with estuaries and traditional fishing villages. Discover the freshest of seafood, creamy ice-creams, maritime heritage, rural beauty and culinary delights.
Picturesque Devon with its two coastlines, two National Parks of vast moorlands and scenic rolling countryside in between. The city of Exeter is historically fascinating, pre-dating the arrival of the Romans in AD50, but also has mainstream shops and top class restaurants.
Jam-packed with castles, abbeys, palaces, museums, and a countryside of picturesque villages and characterful towns as well as vast expanses of open, unspoilt spaces. Most famous for the World Heritage city of Bath, the Glastonbury Festival, Cheddar cheese and cider.
This region has a strong connection to the past with the medieval city of Salisbury and the World Heritage sites of Stonehenge and Avebury. The charming rural market towns such as Bradford on Avon and Corsham have a variety of shops, award-winning restaurants and pubs.
Artists love St Ives how the bright light reflects on the golden beaches and green hills, there are numerous galleries and cafes and top notch eateries; Clovelly has a single cobbled high street that winds steeply down to the ancient harbour.
Uncrowded and unspoilt, the Isles lie just off the coast of Cornwall, either fly over or ferry over to experience the peace, tranquillity and scenery. There are lots of island walks, water sports, wildlife to meet, and artists and galleries.
Stroll through the Capability Brown landscape gardens of Longleat and Bowood House & Gardens; Stourhead has an 18th Century Palladian house with world-famous magical landscape gardens; at the Eden Project massive Biomes house the largest rainforest, stunning plants and exhibits; immerse yourself in the intriguing Lost Gardens of Heligan.
Coastal resorts of Salcombe, Brixham, Torquay on the south coast and surf beaches, Croyde, Woolacombe and Saunton Sands to the north to name a few; the dramatic coastlines with rock pools, smugglers’ caves give way to sweeping white beaches.
Healeys Cyder is a state-of-the-art cyder facility with an aerial walkway that allows you to see the workings, tour the museum and do some tastings, while the kids can pet the farm animals in the cobblestone courtyard; from grain to glass explore over 150 years of history at St Austell Brewery before sampling a selection of beers; try a smooth gin made from the oldest working distillery in England the Plymouth Gin Distillery.
Marvel at the standing stones at Stonehenge; view the Magna Carta in the Salisbury Cathedral; explore underground passages in Exeter; the ruins of Tintagel Castle full of mystery and said to be the birthplace to the legendary King Arthur; in Bath the natural hot spring spa water bubble up as they have done since the Romans and before.
