DEVON
The Jurassic Coast
What we love most about Devon
With hidden white-sand beaches, bright azure-blue waves, and farm-to-table haute cuisine, it’s no wonder Devon has earned its nickname as the English Riviera. History is sewn into the roots of this coastal region, and upon visiting you’ll unearth everything from salacious literary exploits to fishing town mysteries.
Travel itinerary
Day 1
Three-night staying in a superb country house hotel set within a 28-acre estate in Devon, with panoramic views of the beautiful Exe estuary. You’ll have the afternoon to relax, or take time time to explore Lympstone Village. In the evening, savour the eight-course tasting menu paired with wines!
Day 2
Meet with your guide after breakfast. Travel south into the beautiful East Devon countryside, an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and part of the historic Jurassic Coastline, England’s first natural World Heritage Site. Visit a small family-run boutique vineyard producing award-winning world-class wines.
The day unfolds visiting another family estate with explanations of the vine varieties and challenges of growing grapes in Devon, ending with a tasting of some of the best sparkling wine that England has to offer. Unwind with a fabulous lunch, tasting local specialties and, of course, more wines from the region!
Day 3
Wake up with spectacular views over the Estuary. Take a private river cruise up the River Dart for a guided wine tasting with a light lunch. Following this there will be an opportunity to take a walk around the picturesque and historical town of Dartmouth. Explore the cobbled quays, the harbour, or explore the fascinating architecture, from grade-listed buildings to contemporary dwellings. Visit the Parish Church or stroll along one of the many footpaths that criss-cross the village.
Day 4
After breakfast why not enjoy a leisurely walk among the grounds. The Lady’s Walk is a circular route developed in 1760 which extends around the boundary of the estate.
