countryside around Sidmouth is so precious that it has been designated as an ‘Area
of Outstanding Natural Beauty’ or ‘AONB’. For more information please visit www.eastdevonaonb.org.ukThe
East Devon AONB is just that – outstanding! It is part of the same family of protected
landscapes that also includes National Parks. In addition the geology of East
Devon and Dorset coastline is so special that it has been designated as England’s
first natural World Heritage Site- the Jurassic Coast. Eat local, buy local
- If you are feeling peckish, take the Stagecoach 52B service to Honiton, via
the Saxon village of Sidbury. Sample seasonal fayre at the Honiton farmers market
or learn more about its fascinating lace-making history. Access the Jurassic
CoastlinX53 service at Sidford if you want to travel back in time along the World
Heritage Site. Memorable walks & wild days out - For something a little
different, the Axe Valley Mini Travel 899 service gets you into the heart of the
picturesque villages of Branscombe and Beer. It makes the ideal service for creating
your own circular walks by linking up with the South West Coast Path or visiting
