Days Out & Experiences in the South West

Whether it’s a trip to the vibrant city of Bristol, the idyllic corners of Cornwall or the rolling landscapes in Gloucestershire, the South West is a gem well worth exploring.

Discover unique biodomes with a day out at The Eden Project or enjoy a spa retreat in the historic city of Bath. The largest of all regions in England, the South West is home to seven counties scattered with fascinating heritage sites, beautiful coastlines and wonderful attractions, perfect for those much-needed short breaks. We’ve selected over 800 unmissable experiences, so browse the range and discover the jewels of the West Country. When there are so many unspoilt corners of the UK to explore, why travel abroad? Do something different this year and ditch the flight plans for a rural staycation in Somerset. Boasting scenic countryside and miles of golden beaches, it’s no surprise that this region is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. From Somerset cider and cheddar cheese to the iconic Glastonbury Festival and heritage steam trains, the list of Somerset’s customs and traditions is endless. So, why not see what all the fuss is about? Experience a slice of country life with a minibreak to Devon. With quaint coastal coves, the Jurassic Coast that stretches for miles and Dartmoor and Exmoor National Park, a trip to Devon is a real treat for nature lovers. For anyone seeking something slightly more adventurous, there are still plenty of activities to get hearts racing. From hot air balloon rides to escape rooms, there really is something for the action adventurer and quiet country walker alike.
