Thinking About Taking A Holiday In Cornwall &
Devon?
On the very south-western tip of England lies the beautiful
county of Cornwall. With a delightful mix of superb beaches (among the best in
Britain), outstanding scenery and charming towns, villages and cities, Cornwall
has something to offer every traveller.
Despite the wealth of attractions & scenic beauty on
offer, Cornwall has many affordable hotels, B&Bs & guesthouses to suit
the budgets of all holidaymakers.
Cornwall is also Britain’s premier surfing capital –
not surprising given that it enjoys the best weather anywhere in the country. It
also has some of the cleanest beaches and attracts visitors by the millions
every year.
Whether it’s lazing on lovely white beaches, ambling
along wonderful sub-tropical gardens or exploring quiet, picture-perfect fishing
villages you’re after, you’ll find it all when you visit Cornwall.
The famous King Arthur is also believed to have come from
Cornwall, in a small town called Tintagel. Cornish history is mystical, ancient
and highly fascinating. The many delightful towns and villages are often named
after the Christian missionaries that have influenced them.
Like your food and drink? Cornish pubs are known for
offering good hearty foods and your choice of flavoursome ales. And let’s not
forget the “Cornish pasty” – a tasty must-have meat pie that must be experienced when visiting Cornwall.
Holidays In Devon
Devon is famously known to offer the traveller a feast of splendid scenery, lovely beaches and pretty harbour towns. Popular destinations
within Devon include Plymouth, Torbay and Dartmoor National Park.
Devon is also a walkers paradise, and like neighbouring
Cornwall is one of the most popular holiday destinations within the United
Kingdom. And it’s very easy to see why – lush pastures break out into
spectacular coastlines, making Devon a Mecca for those hunting for a taste of
quaint old England.
While enjoying a holiday in Devon, be sure to experience
the wonderfully rugged coastline scenery. Devon is also blessed with some
stunning countryside – charming narrow little roads amble on for miles with
nothing but lush greenery and flora that offers a myriad of explosive colours
during the summertime. Driving through these single-lane roads is an experience
like no other – arrive in a Devon town that’s dotted with picture perfect
thatched
cottages and enjoy a cream tea and scone in one of the many tea-shops.
Devon offers the traveller a classic English village
experience – and there are many great hotels, B&Bs and many more types of
accommodation to cater to the needs of both the luxury traveller and budget
conscious back-packer.
Devon also offers some of the best year-round weather to be
found anywhere in the UK. Temperatures in January (when the rest of the country
is shivering) average a maximum of 9 degrees.
If you enjoy coasts & estuaries then a holiday in
Devon will delight you – the estuaries (such as the Teign) also attract many
species of migratory birds.
