Want to escape the stresses of daily life? Whether its for a day trip, weekend or longer, South Devon is the place for you. Full of activities and attractions, it’s the perfect place for romantic getaways, sightseeing or keeping the kids entertained. This area of Devon offers a beautiful coastline and expansive countryside giving you unspoilt greenery, gorgeous beaches and picturesque villages.

Good morning Teignmouth by Nicolau Pestana

South Devon provides the perfect backdrop for your special day and there are plenty of wedding venues dotted around the region. Take a look at our Wedding page to choose the venue that suits you and your partner.

This area of Devon has some fantastic places to eat and the residents are very proud of their local produce from seafood to fruit and veg. One option is the BE Tempted restaurant at Beyond Escapes where you can experience local seafood and other local produce. Or if the view is just as important as the food, The Millbrook Inn situated in the village of South Pool, where you can enjoy the sight of thatched houses, a bubbling brook and a bridge made of stepping stones all from the terrace. For those of you who enjoy a tipple or two while on holiday, you’re in luck, South Devon is the home of the Salcombe Distilling Company, born out of a love of gin and inspired by the sea, visitors will be able to sample some of the local gin, as well as learn how it is made at one of their workshops. Maybe you’re looking for somewhere to host a corporate event or team building exercises for your staff, take a look at the wide range of activities and conference centres available here.

One great way to experience South Devon is to become one with nature, this region offers some of the best camping and caravan sites in the south west, but if roughing it isn’t your style, there are also a range of options without sacrificing the great outdoors, such as yurts and glamping.

The exciting accommodation options don’t end there though, South Devon has hundreds of places to choose from, including family-run B&Bs, rustic cottages, luxury boutique hotels, chalets and caravans.

Once you’ve found yourself somewhere to stay, you’re going to want to get exploring and this part of the region has plenty to offer.
If you have little ones to entertain, there is always Explore Devon on a Treasure Trail, which has 46 guided themed trails throughout the county or Woodlands Family Theme Park, which has the largest water-coasters in Devon and the biggest indoor play centre in the South West. If that’s a bit too intense and you’d like a more relaxing adventure, you can always take a trip on Dartmouth Steam Railways and River Boat. The steam train will take you around some of the little towns and villages, as well as the River Dart, where you may get the opportunity to spot a dolphin or seal or two. If you’re looking to combine both family friendly amusements with the natural world and spectacular wildlife, Becky Falls Woodland Park offers the best of both worlds. There are animal encounters, children’s crafts and walks around one of Devon’s most beautiful areas.

South Devon is a great destination for shoppers. Not only can you browse traditional market towns, Newton Abbot and Kingsbridge, you can also take a trip to Totnes, one of the oldest towns in England, which is full of local arts and produce. The fashion junkies need not miss out either as in addition to the quirky selection of offer, South Devon boasts superb high street shopping.
