Welcome Single Travellers

We have been reading lately about the increasing numbers of people who travel and holiday alone in the UK and abroad.

experienceDevon caters very well for the single, independent traveller, as we can put together a great tailor-made itinerary for you that is as active or relaxed as you want it to be - and we don't charge a single-person supplement as all our itineraries are per person.
We can arrange for you to meet local people who are interested in meeting with you and sharing their knowledge or expertise, such as local wildlife, artists, musicians or guided walks. Visit fascinating buildings, go on a boat trip or take part in a creative workshop, whatever you want to do and makes it your holiday.

We can also offer you a helping hand whilst you are here in North Devon - we can give you an orientation to the area if it is completely new to you, or indeed if you are in a foreign Country. We are also available at the end of a mobile phone if you get stuck, need help or just have a question. You can also borrow things that you may have forgotten to pack or just didn't know you needed until you got here, such as walking sticks, waterproof jacket, maps and guide books.

Above all, our tailor-made itineraries are personalised just for you - tell us the kind of experience you want and we'll put together your short break or two-week holiday for you to enjoy.

Whether the weather

North Devon is known for its mild winters and rarely gets any snow, except on the moors of Exmoor and Dartmoor. However in early February we had the most snow the region has seen for 20 years. The roads were wonderfully quiet and most people enjoyed the rare weather, sledging on body boards, kite surfing on a snowy field or making huge snowmen. 50 snowmen were built in the park in Bideford and the town was white all over on the Quay and roads.

Traffic was unable to leave the town as both routes out towards the link road were under snow. Due to the hills, cars, lorries and buses could not manage to get up or go anywhere. There was a big traffic jam as people decided to sit in their vehicle and wait for the snow to thaw so they could move. It proved good sport for pedestrians to stand and watch as some crazy people did try to get up the hill, mostly to fail and get stuck.

A businessman from Ilfracombe remarked, "Business has been steady so far but I think we'll close this afternoon – mainly because I want to go out and play"
experienceDevon expect the unexpected and will change your itinerary for inclement weather at a moments notice. Finding you ways of enjoying your stay, whatever the weather.
