South Devon

South Devon is popular for its stunning coastline, sandy beaches and rocky coves,  along with beautiful villages spread across the countryside. Visitors can explore ancient castles and historic towns, attend festivals, and take part in events throughout the year.

The county has become a hot spot for outdoor enthusiasts, with scenic walking and cycle routes, and fantastic watersport locations. Not to mention the fantastic food and drink, including fresh seafood, locally produced cider and beer, plus the traditional cream tea.

Coast and Country Cottages offer holiday accommodation across South Devon including the famous harbour towns of Salcombe and Dartmouth. Here we have put together area guides and blog articles to help you plan your next day out or holiday in South Devon.
