Clotted cream and wild ponies define this land between two seas.

Devon, known for its diverse landscapes, features both rugged coastlines and rolling hills. The region is famed for its cream teas, with clotted cream and scones at the heart of local cuisine. Exeter, the county town, boasts a rich history dating back to Roman times, while towns like Totnes and Dartmouth offer vibrant markets and historic architecture. Devon is home to Dartmoor National Park, where ancient stone circles and wild ponies can be found, providing ample hiking opportunities. The area also has a unique maritime heritage, with fishing villages like Clovelly and Lynton showcasing traditional coastal life. This region is the only one in the UK with two coastlines, making it a remarkable destination for nature enthusiasts.
