Tavistock is an award-winning market town in West Devon. A fascinating mining heritage, a great choice of independent shops and a taste-bud-tingling farmers' market.
The South West's own airline, Air Southwest, has today launched twice-daily flights from London City Airport (the closest airport to the centre of London) to both Plymouth and Newquay.

Enjoyed a very comfortable stay at the Falmouth Hotel (in Falmouth!). It's a large, traditional place, enjoying a simply spectacular location overlooking Falmouth's Gyllynvase Beach and the open sea beyond. Our bedroom was huge - high ceilings, grand proportions and original features all round - and the best bit was the amazing sea view. Downstairs there is a nice bar/lounge and restaurant, and a decent leisure centre Altogether a warm, welcoming, comfortable and relaxing place to stay. And great value - especially out of season, when rooms start from as little as £50 for a double including breakfast.
