Kingsbridge and Dartmouth are places to be in if you are looking for traditional food, and you can be sure about remembering their taste for the rest of your lives.
Entertainment: Devon is place where the entertainment is not just about lavish and expensive games played under harsh neon lights, nor does it has anything to do with the loud music and rowdy crowds of nightclubs.

You can lie down for hours on the pristine sandy beaches with not a care in the world, or on the other hand, if you want some serious exercise, then take a walk round the Coast Path.
