Devon provides a beautiful holiday setting with opportunities for wine tasting, walking, and enjoying local seafood. The journey along the Exe estuary showcases diverse wildlife and scenic views. Exploring the area without a car enhances the experience, allowing for leisurely strolls through idyllic countryside paths. Starting from an old farmhouse, every excursion reveals charming landscapes and historical insights from famous figures like Agatha Christie. The visit includes sampling local wines and cheeses amidst a backdrop of nature, underscoring the region's rich agricultural heritage and natural beauty.
The area promises wine, walking, seafood and an eclectic history from prehistoric cave-dwellers to Agatha Christie.
