Regions at a Glance
Torquay & South Devon
Torbay's Seaside
Billing itself as the English Riviera, the Torbay area is one of the region's holiday hotspots,
and it's tailor-made for an old-fashioned bucket-and-spade break by the sea.
Stately Homes
Some of Devon's loveliest country houses are hidden away in the south Devon countryside:
the Modernist-era High Cross House, the Regency pomp of Coleton Fishacre and Agatha
Christie's Dartmouth hideaway, Greenway.
South Hams
The South Hams is the quintessential Devon landscape, encompassing fields, woods,
rivers, harbours and sleepy hamlets. Dartmouth and Salcombe are both riverside beauties,
while Totnes has an alternative edge.
