Devon is a large county in South West England, bordered by Cornwall to the west, and Dorset and Somerset to the east. It is unique among English counties, in that it has two separated coastlines, on the English Channel and Bristol Channel branches of the Atlantic. Although Devon is now the formal and generally accepted name, for many centuries the county had been called "Devon" or "Devonshire", and the latter remains in common usage and features in some names, titles and signposts. Devon is the fourth largest of the English counties, with a population of 1,109,900. The county town is the cathedral city of Exeter, and the county contains two independent unitary authorities, the port city of Plymouth and the Torbay conurbation of seaside resorts. Much of the county is rural, and it has a low population density. The Dorset and East Devon Coast, otherwise known as the Jurassic Coast due to its geology and geographical features, is the only natural UNESCO World Heritage Site in England. Geologically, Devon, along with its neighbour Cornwall is known as the "Cornubian massif". This geology gives rise to the unique landscapes of Dartmoor and Exmoor, both National Parks. In addition to these, Devon has many seaside resorts and several historic towns and cities, plus a mild climate, accounting for the large tourist sector of its economy.

Drive through a wildlife park and visit zoos, we have all sorts of aquariums listed in the UK, but you may have to travel to another county. Looking for somewhere I take the kids just have a look at some of the pottery making places and ceramic cafes. School teachers may find useful for ideas for the class to visit on school days out educational and historical venues are normally the most popular on a school trip! If your on vacation then ten pin bowling alleys and the other best family tourist attractions just browse our site. Devon is a coastal county in South West England bordered by Dorset, Somerset, Wiltshire and Bristol.
