DEVON & CORNWALL’S BEST starts with essential TRIP-PLANNING information and an overview of key DESTINATIONS to provide perfect orientation.

A hand-crafted ITINERARIES section then offers first-timers three different, easy-to-follow routes to explore the region. Do one or two of them, or link them all up for a brilliant two-week trip.

Or, if you have particular INTERESTS or ACTIVITIES in mind, then you might just dive straight in to the this section of the app. It’s designed to give you the low-down on various themes, so if you’re travelling with KIDS; want an overview of WATER SPORTS; or want to tour landscaped GARDENS or HISTORIC HOMES – you'll find dedicated sections point you in the right direction. Other categories include BEACHES, CYCLING, HISTORY and WALKING.

Finally the app details many good RESTAURANTS, CAFES & PUBS near many key sights as well as a few places that are attractions in themselves. There’s also a little on SHOPS & SHOPPING to help hunt souvenirs and round off that perfect trip.
