Devon Tours & Vacations

Devon is easily reached by car, train, coach or bus. The two main train lines into Devon are the Paddington Line (operated by Great Western Railway) and the Waterloo Line (operated by South Western Railway).

The National Express runs coach services to Devon from all over Britain with stops in Exeter, Tiverton, Plymouth, Bideford, Barnstaple, Westward Ho! and Ilfracombe.

If you're coming from further afield, the closest international airports are Exeter and Bristol.

No matter how you get here, the best part about traveling to Devon is that you’ll be treated to fabulous views.

Getting around Devon is easy, thanks to a reliable public transport network.

Devon’s major towns and villages are connected via bus routes with Stagecoach South West.

Devon also has some stunning scenic rail journeys like the English Riviera, Dartmoor and Tarka lines with incredible Devonshire coast and countryside views.

Rural areas might have limited public transport or no services, so plan.

Devon has similar weather to the rest of the UK.

The county has a temperate maritime climate and rarely experiences extreme hot and cold weather.

Winter is chilly and wet (with a few beautifully clear and crisp days thrown in there, too), and summer is warm, with occasional hot days.

Spring is usually mild and wet, while autumn experiences mild weather during the day with cooler nights.

What to pack for your trip to Devon depends on the season.

The summer can be warm, so T-shirts, shorts, skirts and pants are all suitable. You'll still want to bring some warm layers, such as a light jacket or fleece, as the temperature can drop in the evenings, or it might feel chilly if a sea breeze rolls in.

For winter trips, it's best to bring warm clothes that will keep you dry and snug, such as long-sleeved tops, a windproof and waterproof coat, scarves, gloves, etc.

It's always a good idea to bring an umbrella no matter the season in case the heavens open (which happens quite a bit in the UK!).
