Beautiful West Country town that is 'hottest and sunniest' in UK dubbed 'Britain's Turkey'

A beautiful West Country town boasts the 'hottest' temperatures and enjoys the most sunshine compared to anywhere else in the UK. A new study by Cofton Holidays analysed the latest Met Office records to find Britain’s "most consistently hot and sunny holiday destinations".

Experts studied the "sunshine hours" and average yearly temperatures over the past 10 years, and found that Torbay is the destination with the most "reliably good weather ". The location is famous for caverns and caves, an impressive model village, and lots of cafes and restaurants.

The seaside town also has a stunning beach. Taking to TripAdvisor one person wrote: "We had a lovely time watching all the different beach activities happening on the day we visited; from people surfing and swimming to kite surfing; board sailing; walking dogs etc."
