Location
   

The South West of England stretches from Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds down to Dorset and westwards as far as Lands End in Cornwall. It includes the wide open spaces of Dartmoor and Exmoor, picturesque villages with thatched cottages nestling in amongst rolling hills, and a magnificent and varied coastline dotted with fishing villages, seaside resorts, and 600 miles of coastal footpath.

The mild climate, stunning scenery, fascinating history and heritage, and relaxed lifestyle all add to make the South West of England such a popular holiday destination

 

 
   
   
With the wild remoteness of high Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor, the wooded valleys of Exmoor, the lush countryside to be found in all four counties and 500 miles of coastline varying from high cliffs to the finest sandy beaches, it is not surprising that this region has many of the most popular holiday destination areas of Britain.
