The traditional seaside town of Dawlish is dominated by stunning cliffs and rows of colourful houses.  It is a great family holiday destination with a large sandy beach - Dawlish town beach - perfect for swimming, building sandcastles or rock pooling at low tide.  The steam trains regularly go past right along the coast, giving Dawlish a real vintage appeal. Further along the coast there is the magnificent Dawlish Warren beach with its award-winning clean bathing water and one and a half miles of sand and dunes.  There is loads to do here from go-karting and mini golf to a variety of water sports.   Away from the seaside, visit Dawlish countryside park, a gorgeous 65-acre open space, great for dog walking (outside the deer park) and a day out with a picnic, or Dawlish Warren Nature reserve which attracts thousands of birds and is home to over 600 varieties of flowering plants. A seaside destination not to be missed!

Nestled in the southwest of England, Devon is a beautiful coastal and rural county, full of nature and landscapes for you to experience.  With 2 beautiful coastlines, Devon is a great place to take the family for a UK beach holiday, why not try out surfing, kayaking or coasteering?  Head inland to the endless moors of Devon, and visit Exmoor or Dartmoor. Meet wild ponies or try pony trekking through the moors. If you live history why not try one of the steam railways across the moors? All great holiday activities.  If you are looking for a city escape, Devon is home to both Plymouth and Exeter, which make great weekend city breaks.  So why not give Devon a go?
