DEVON VOTED BEST UK COUNTY Devon has always been a popular destination to visit. It’s well-known for its breathtaking coastlines, medieval villages and inspiring landscapes. Telegraph Travel experts have named Devon as England’s greatest county and after a few trips to Bovey Castle, nestled in the rolling valleys of Dartmoor National Park, we couldn’t agree more. According to their methodology, Devon scored a total of 828 points, a 79-point lead ahead of second place. The list compared the 48 counties across four categories including ‘Natural Wonders’, ‘History & Culture’, ‘Luxuries’, and ‘Peace & Quiet’ – all of which Devon thrive in.
