Stay With Us and Make the Most of Spring in Devon

Spring is one of the most magical times to visit Devon. As the countryside bursts into colour and the days grow longer, the region comes alive with everything from coastal walks and garden festivals to lively cultural events.
With our comfortable B&B accommodation available right here on campus between 7–21 April, exploring everything Devon has to offer this spring couldn’t be easier.
Step Into the Great Outdoors
There’s no better way to embrace spring than by getting outside. Across Devon, landscapes transform into a patchwork of greens, wildflowers, and fresh sea air.
Head to Dartmoor National Park for rugged tors, open moorland, and scenic walking routes, or follow the iconic South West Coast Path for sweeping sea views and clifftop adventures. Spring is the perfect time to explore, before the summer crowds arrive and while the countryside is at its most vibrant.
If you prefer something more tranquil, Devon’s gardens are in full bloom. At RHS Garden Rosemoor, you’ll find colourful displays, seasonal planting, and peaceful spaces to unwind.
Discover Picture-Perfect Devon Villages
Spring is when Devon’s villages truly shine. Wander cobbled streets, discover independent shops, and soak up the slower pace of life.
- Clovelly offers timeless charm with its steep streets and harbour views
- Cockington is full of thatched cottages, craft studios, and countryside walks
These hidden gems are ideal for a relaxed day out.
Breathe in the Coast
Devon’s coastline is one of its biggest draws, and spring is arguably the best time to enjoy it. With over 120 miles of beaches, you can choose between dramatic surf spots, wide sandy stretches, or peaceful coves.
Favourites include:
- Bantham Beach for waves and coastal views
- Saunton Sands for long, peaceful walks
- Woolacombe Beach for classic seaside scenery
Whether it’s a brisk morning walk or a sunset stroll, the coast feels especially beautiful at this time of year.
Enjoy Spring Events and Easter Activities
Spring in Devon also marks the return of seasonal events and family-friendly activities, particularly around Easter. Many attractions reopen in March and April, with everything from garden festivals to Easter trails and hands-on experiences.
From local craft events to outdoor adventures, there’s something happening across the region, making it a great time for a short break or spontaneous getaway.
