Devon is widely known for its cultivated farmland, rolling hills, and clotted cream and scone teas (just make sure to apply your cream before the strawberry jam!) If copious cake consumption isn’t your thing, then don’t worry because there’s an awful lot to do in Devon besides.
The Royal Albert Museum and Gallery, or RAMM, is a large, nationally renowned museum celebrating Devon’s local history and art along with a wider curated selection of arts and artifacts from around the globe. With a heritage dating all the way back to 1813, the RAMM is Exeter’s biggest tourist attraction....
If the draw of history is appealing to you, why not also have a look at the South Devon Railway, originally built in 1872 and now running steam trains and heritage stock over a seven mile route along a former branch line. The route stops for visits at several local attractions like Dartmoor Otters Sanctuary and Butterfly Farm and the Totnes Rare Breeds farm on its travels. Brixham in Devon is also home to a full-size and fully explorable replica of Sir Francis Drake’s ship, the Golden Hind, the first English vessel to circumnavigate the globe.
And if you prefer your adventures to be a little more active, why not pay a visit to Haldon Forest Park in Exeter. Haldon is a Forestry Commission managed park featuring everything from quiet walking paths to exhilarating cycling trails, all set within the beautiful Haldon Hills.
