The three most southwesterly counties of England - Somerset, Devon and Cornwall - incorporate some of the most varied landscape in the country. Along the 600 miles of coastline are long sandy beaches, rocky coves and gentle bays, while inland there's quintessential English countryside to explore, not to mention the rugged, dramatic scenery of Exmoor and Dartmoor and some picturesque villages. This region also encompasses Bristol's vibrant music/nightlife scene, Bath's exquisite architecture and the best of Britain's summer festivals. This guide moves beyond cliche to draw out the best of the region.
