Plymouth Holidays and Short Breaks

The beautiful city of Plymouth, situated on the scenic South Devon coastline, is steeped in rich history and outstanding natural beauty. With the vibrancy of any modern city Plymouth offers locals and visitors alike a great choice of places to visit during a holiday or short break in Plymouth.

Its history predates its famous entry in the Doomsday Book (1086) and has long established itself as an area of significance in England. Raleigh and Drake were here and Plymouths Port is overlooked by the Elizabethan Barbican – a building of outstanding beauty and significant historical interest.

Today Plymouth boasts enviable shopping facilities, eateries and music venues, coastal & woodland walks, museums and galleries and one of the largest educational establishments in the UK – the University of Plymouth (also one of the largest employers in the south west!).  Visitors to Plymouth and the surrounding areas simply have more to do than you can fit into one visit!
