Summer breaks
Sun, sea, sand... There is so much more to Devon than that but we can all agree it is one of the best places to be in the Summer. Whether you're looking for a traditional British seaside holiday, a rural retreat or a family holiday full of adventure you'll find the perfect break here in Devon.
Something new with every season
With Devon’s incredibly diverse landscape, every change in season brings something new and interesting to see and do. The countryside, National Parks of Exmoor and Dartmoor and the woodland and open country change with each passing month, allowing you to indulge in those amazing warm colours of autumn, spy the seasonal birds and enjoy the changing plants. Not only that, but being located in the south west, Devon has a milder microclimate than most of the UK, so even in the autumn you can guarantee that the weather will be warmer than other areas of the country.
A fresh new flavour
We all love fish and chips on the beach and a Devonshire cream tea in the sunshine. Honestly, nothing beats Devon’s fresh, seasonal food and drink and the summer months mean a whole new set of exciting dishes to try. From simple light dishes in the region’s pubs and restaurants to exciting new ice cream flavours to sample at the seafront, there is always something new to try, whatever the season.
