Destination Devon
In recent months, the domestic holiday market has experienced new highs in terms of both popularity and increased profit margins. This comes as no surprise as the credit crunch has inspired many British summer holiday makers to ditch their usual overseas haunts and instead try to make the most of what is more readily available on their doorstep. And our small island certainly hasn’t disappointed, as bookings are already up for the summer ahead.
Devon is arguably one of the UK’s most picturesque holiday destinations and as such has continued to attract artists of all genres, mediums and styles for many years. From traditional water colour painters to open air photographers, the scenery here continues to prove adaptable to the trends within the art world, as the eclectic range of photographs displayed here goes to show. But for the travelling artist, what kinds of holidays are available here, and what will suit whom the best?
As one of Britain’s milder regions, there is certainly no shortage of well-run, well-maintained campsites in the area. Not only is camping a cost-effective way to travel, it is a fun way to get back to basics and become part of this beautiful landscape. You will be ideally situated for spontaneous ramblings in Dartmoor or Exmoor and other such areas of astounding natural beauty and you will experience the landscape in all different lights, from the moment the sun rises to the darkening evening skies.
Caravan owners are also spoilt for choice in Devon is this is also a favoured caravanning holiday destination. One company worth checking out both for their caravan resorts or to look at caravans for sale is Park Resorts, one of the nations most popular caravan travel hubs. Both camping and caravanning facilitate a refreshing change from your usual day to day life, something that is not to be underestimated in its importance to the aspiring photographer.
For those who require a few more creature comforts in their travel schemes, there are, of course, a range of attractive self-catering cottages and appartments, often in highly scenic areas with links to national transport systems.
