10 day Devon and Cornwall road trip itinerary

When there’s 630 miles (over 1,000km) of coastline to discover and plenty more inland attractions, a road trip around Devon and Cornwall makes a great choice for a UK summer family holiday.

A family holiday on the Costa de la Luz

The Costa de la Luz isn’t only about glorious beaches – there are picture perfect hilltop towns and historical sites to visit too. I had plans of outings to local cities and sights (in the early morning to escape the heat) and spending lazy afternoons by the pool. But we took the kids to our local beach, El Palmar, on the first day, and we were all bitten by the beach bug.
