Just booked my holiday for September, a 600 mile round trip over 7 days. Starting in the Cotswolds, then down to Sidmouth on South Devon Coast, then a couple of days in Ilfracombe on North Devon Coast, then Bude North Cornwall, back to Ilfracombe, then back home 😀

The route should be something like below, avoiding motorways, and sticking to coastal roads around North Devon.

Enjoy your trip, personally I would drop down to Dorset and then to East Devon and then South Devon as I think it's nicer scenery than North Devon and the sea is far better.

I think Devon is a gorgeous county, I've been to South Devon a lot especially as a kid. I really enjoyed a couple of days riding around North Devon last year, so wanted to spend a little bit more time there this year :)

I lived in Newton Abbot for 5years watch out for dozy grockel holiday makers. Best part of south west Devon is from the river Dart to the border with Cornwall and the roads are quite a interesting in places but watch out for cow/horse shit on blind corners and dozy farmers on tractors.
That's where I tend to ride, avoiding the A38, head up to Totnes then either head towards Dartmoor or Kingsbridge. Had a quick ride to Buckfast Abbey, really nice place, brought back a bottle of Buckfast, I've never had it before but read all the stories about it.
