With airport drama to contend with, and heatwaves aplenty over in Bristol, who even wants to go abroad this year? Once in a while, we all need a reminder that the south of the UK offers up views to rival the Amalfi Coast, and it has been concluded that a North Devon seaside town just two hours from Bristol is one of the UK's 'best hidden gems'.
MyLondon reported that in research undertaken by Sykes Cottages, the picture postcard town of Ilfracombe in North Devon is the seventh best hidden gem in the UK. With a harbour, secret tunnels, pastel houses and secluded coves, Ilfracombe's putting up a pretty good argument as to why it should be your next day trip or staycation stop.
Sykes Cottages has given a detailed account of why Ilfracombe is deserving of its newly instated 'hidden gem' status. What makes this North Devon hideout the perfect place to visit this summer?
