Shaldon in South Devon is a magical holiday destination, promising every visitor a chance to escape. Wander down the old fishing village streets, the sunlight splashing golden splinters of summer all along the beach up to the cliffs and rock pools. Catch the oldest ferry in England for the short hop across to Teignmouth and laze on the pier, slurping ice cream and watching the surfers ride the waves.

I'm sure we all want to be beside the seaside. And there are not many places that tick all the boxes for a relaxing escape that really is right next to the sea. Shaldon is blessed with centuries of seafaring history, pubs that have welcomed the salty sea-dogs are now cosy nooks for you and your friends to relax and soak up the atmosphere. Restaurants, bars and galleris are aplenty as you wander along the shore with the waves gently lapping at your feet. And if you like to beachcombe, each new tide will deliver all sorts of treats for those with sharp eyes for gathering the harvest. Across the river into teignmouth will increase the tempo slightly, with cinema, theatre, shopping and even more beaches. If you are detemined not to relax, then boat hire, scuba diving, wind surfing, and all manner of sea related fun is right there for the taking.
