Frequently asked questions about short term rentals in Devon

  • What attractions should one visit during a week-long stay in Devon?

    A week in Devon allows for a good overview. Start with the iconic Dartmoor National Park, exploring its rugged landscapes, ancient tors like Haytor, and charming villages like Widecombe-in-the-Moor. Spend a day exploring Plymouth, visiting the historic Barbican and the Mayflower Steps. Coastal highlights should include a visit to the dramatic cliffs of the Jurassic Coast at Lyme Regis (though technically in Dorset, it's very close) and a stroll along the sandy beaches of Exmouth or Woolacombe. Consider visiting a stately home like Powderham Castle or Saltram House for a taste of Devon's history.
  • What are the best short term rentals in Devon?

  • What attractions should one visit when spending a month in Devon?

    A month gives ample time for a deeper exploration. In addition to the week-long itinerary, explore the North Devon coastline, visiting charming towns like Clovelly and surfing hotspots like Saunton Sands. Take a boat trip to Lundy Island for its unique wildlife and dramatic scenery. Delve deeper into Dartmoor, perhaps hiking a longer section of the Two Moors Way, and explore the less-visited parts of Exmoor National Park. Consider visiting smaller towns and villages like Totnes, known for its independent shops and alternative vibe, and Dartmouth, a historic port town. Allow time for leisurely walks and exploring the diverse landscapes.
  • What are the best short term rentals with a pool in Devon?

  • Can visitors to Devon witness any unique natural cycles, such as cherry blossom season or autumn colours?

    Absolutely! Devon's varied landscape means different areas experience these cycles at slightly different times. Cherry blossom season typically peaks in late March to early April, though this varies by location and microclimate. Autumn colours are spectacular, usually peaking from late October to mid-November, with Dartmoor and Exmoor offering particularly stunning displays. The South Hams area also provides beautiful displays.
  • What are the best short term rentals with a jacuzzi in Devon?

  • What are the most meaningful ways to engage with locals and discover the culture in Devon?

    Visiting local farmers' markets, such as those in Totnes or Tavistock, offers a chance to interact with producers and learn about local food. Exploring smaller villages and pubs allows for more informal interactions with residents. Attending local events, such as village fetes or agricultural shows (check local listings), provides opportunities to engage with the community. Many towns and villages have historical societies or museums that offer insights into local life and traditions.

  • What are some secret spots or hidden treasures to visit in Devon?

    The secluded beaches tucked away along the North Devon coast are true hidden gems. Explore the less-visited parts of Dartmoor, discovering ancient settlements and forgotten pathways. The South West Coast Path offers numerous secluded coves and viewpoints away from the main tourist trails. Seek out smaller, less-known gardens and National Trust properties for a quieter experience. Many charming villages off the beaten track offer a peaceful escape.
  • What should not be left out of your suitcase if you are going to Devon?

    Pack for all types of weather. Devon's climate can be unpredictable, so layers are essential. Include waterproof and windproof outerwear, sturdy walking shoes, and comfortable clothing suitable for both warm and cool days. Don't forget sunscreen and insect repellent, especially during the summer months.

    Devon hosts numerous local events, but some notable recurring events include the Dartmouth Royal Regatta (a sailing event), the Sidmouth FolkWeek (a large folk music festival), and various agricultural shows across the county.
