Luxury Holiday Cottages for 2 in Devon

Arguments will long rage over which is the most romantic county in the UK, however Devon is surely a strong contender for the prize and a fantastic choice in which to take a holiday for two.

The chic styling of Devon’s south coast offers indulgence and tranquillity along the aptly named English Riviera. With the highest promenade in Britain, Babbacombe is a great place to take a romantic evening stroll, perhaps having eaten in one of the town’s luxury fine-dining restaurants. 

Gorgeous Branscombe beach is the gateway to a coastline of cinematic elegance. Little thatched villages vie for your attention with pastel-painted beach huts and, of course, the shimmering ocean. 

You don’t have to explore the south coast under your own steam. Step aboard the Dartmouth Steam Railway for an unforgettable journey along the coastline and appreciate perhaps the country’s most striking railway vistas. 

Head to North Devon to uncover more of the county’s romantic charms. The crashing waves, sugar-fine dunes and atmospheric cliff-top walks around Croyde Bay exude sentimentality. What could be more romantic than walking hand-in-hand, bare foot on a beach at sunset? Pack a picnic to maximise your time together in this special place. 

For a romantic day trip journey to the edge of Exmoor and the National Trust’s Arlginton Court. As well as a sumptuous house dripping in Victorian splendour, there are over 20 miles of paths to explore and tearooms to visit to reward yourselves with a tasty treat. 

Head into Exmoor itself for miles of picturesque walking country amidst heathland and ancient woodland. 

Choose a holiday cottage with a hot tub in Devon so that after your days adventuring you can relax in the bubbles with a glass of something special.
