Discover North Devon and North Cornwall
There are few more naturally beautiful and unspoilt regions in the UK than North Devon and North Cornwall.
Sparsely populated, with hundreds of square miles of rolling countryside and a spectacular coastline, it is little wonder this part of the world is so popular with holidaymakers.
Although our holiday park is based in Devon we’re only a few miles from the Cornwall border, so you can experience the very best that both counties have to offer.
Perfect for those who love the great outdoors, the region is blessed with a coastline that is just waiting to be explored. But it’s also home to many pretty towns and villages. Here we pick out our top some of our favourite places of interest that we think are simply a must visit!
