Devon Coast Cottages
Book one of our Devon coast cottages and expect a holiday to
remember, whether you're planning a family getaway in summer or
a quiet escape for two off-season. Unique in that it's a county
with two contrasting coastlines, the south is home to a bigger
range of resorts (Salcombe, Torquay, Dartmouth, Exmouth, etc spring to mind) while the
north is a little more rugged and off-the-beaten-track.
North or South Devon Coast?
Scenically, both north and south come up trumps and many
stretches of both coastlines are protected by the National Trust or
are designated AONBs. A wonderful way to soak up the natural sights
is to stride out along the coastal path and many people who book
our coastal cottages in Devon are walking enthusiasts. Those of you
travelling with little ones, meanwhile, usually laden with buckets
and nets, need look no further than the south coast's crabbing
hotspots - Dawlish, Wembury,
Dittisham, to name a few. Sailing and snorkelling are popular too,
or head inland for outdoor adventures amid the amazing wilderness
of Dartmoor
National Park.
Along Devon's north coast expect wonderful wildlife - see
puffins on Lundy Island and wild ponies at Exmoor. Atlantic waves
mean sweeping rollers great for surfing and other thrilling water
sports (try Croyde or Woolacombe). You'll also find cliff-top
golf courses, secluded fishing spots and cycling along the Tarka
Trail.
And wherever your holiday rental on the Devon coast may be,
you're never far from small, sleepy villages serving up
scrumptious cream teas, historic market towns for shopping, arts
and culture, not to mention countless other attractions from
historic houses and gardens to award-winning theme parks.
