Its reputation ruined by Basil Fawlty, the ‘English Riviera’ has made a comeback (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of the many delights of a driving holiday in Devon, England’s fourth-largest county, is the wonderfully euphonic placenames. Villages like Ipplepen, Hatherleigh, Puddington and Lustleigh conjure up images of thatched cottages, Morris Men and cricket on the green. Many of these settlements date back to Saxon times and no doubt sparked the prodigious imagination of Agatha Christie, Devon’s most famous daughter, who was born in the coastal honeypot of Torquay.

Reopened in February 2026 after a 16-month facelift, the beachside property retains its sense of grandeur but now offers glitzier dining options, a wider range of activitie

Places such as Uluru, Kakadu, Cradle Mountain and the Daintree lure thousands of overseas visitors each year, but Australians have not always shared the same passion for these wide-open spaces. That scenario, it seems, is changing. NSW government statisti
