A seaside town just a short drive away from Bristol has been lavished with praise by tourists who have fallen in love with the "charming" place - and even earned a comparison to a popular European destination. Famed for incredible views, tourists from across the country flock to the picturesque town of Salcombe.
Boasting a myriad of local shops, and ice cream parlours, DevonLive found the town packed full of visitors during the busy half-term holiday. A truly traditional seaside town, families crabbed together at the waterfront, building sandcastles and enjoying renowned local pasties and ice cream.
Salcombe is described as "not spoiled" by life-long visitors, who long ago committed themselves to holidaying in the town. Jules and her son Josh McDonald, from Twickenham, have been visiting for 30 years as a family for the "perfect English holiday".
