Salcombe
The Santorini of south Devon. Picturesque beaches as far as the eye can see – oh and Salcombe Gin Distilary!
Britain’s answer to Santorini, Salcombe is by far one of my favourite places to visit in South Devon. This gorgeous town is situated in the South Hams district of Devon within the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). With a distinctly Mediterranean feel, palm trees litter the colourful, pastel streets of Salcombe. Wander down Salcombe’s narrow winding side streets and you will discover cafes and shops galore!
