Young Love
Queen Elizabeth had her first public meeting with Prince Philip at Dartmouth’s Britannia Royal Naval College. The couple were 13 and 18 (respectively) at the time.
Pie Wars
Devon is actually the birthplace of the pasty. The first written record of the region’s number one savoury snack attributes the pasty to the county. Something their neighbours in Cornwall find hard to swallow.
Sea-ing Is Believing
It’s the only county to be bordered two seas. To the north the county opens on to the Bristol Channel and Irish Sea, to the south the beaches are kissed by the English Channel.
It’s Officially Beautiful
The county has three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty; Blackdown Hills, South Devon, East Devon. Despite not having AONB status, Dartmoor is the largest open space in the South of England covering and area of 368sq miles.
Road to Somewhere
Not known for its packed motorways, the county actually has more miles of road than any other, over 8,000 miles of blacktop to be precise.
Devils & Witchcraft
This was the last county where women were put on trial and executed for witchcraft. Evidence against unfortunate locals included a tabby cat entering the shop of one of the accused and a magpie landing on a windowsill.
Stone Me!
On the 5th of November, while the rest of the nation is celebrating Bonfire Night, the Devon village of Shebbear turns a giant stone to ward off devils. It takes six men to roll the huge boulder which is not native to the area, in fact no one knows how the stone got there.
Famous Faces
Exeter University has some celebrated alumni, Steve Backshall, Zara Tindell, Rhod Gilbert, Will Young and JK Rowling drank knowledge and sipped cider in the halls and student union.
Flag Bearers
The county’s flag is actually relatively new. In 2003 the local BBC radio station held a competition to design a flag for the county. The colours (green, black and white) represent the hills, the moors and the sea spray.

A rural and in parts ruggedly beautiful part of the country, Devon is one of England’s most spectacular counties. There are two coastlines, three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, two National Parks, one UNESCO World Heritage Site and the largest open space in Southern England.
There is also a rich heritage of fine food, from cheese and pasties to wine and gin, whether you’re sitting in a rustic pub or a 5* Michelin restaurant, there is much to enjoy. But perhaps Devon’s best loved aspect is the great outdoors, with a warmer climate and more roads than any other county (strange but true), there is so much just waiting to be explored.
