Luxury solo holidays in Devon
Eat, stay, love. With a candlelit table set for one, the telly all to yourself, and no one to share the eiderdown with but the dog, luxury solo holidays in Devon are all about dancing to the beat of your own drum.
As Freya Stark once said, "to awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations." There's no travel quite like luxury solo travel. We love romantic getaways and big group gatherings as much as the next person, but we also know that inserting a little solitude into the schedule is the tried-and-true way to take well-being off the back burner. From restorative stays in verdant valleys to mindful long-lets where you can pen the beginning chapters of your novel, these solo hideouts and remote retreats wait for you with roaring fires and luxury hampers.
Here are homes with main character energy; where protagonists sip wine among wildflowers and twirl themselves around the kitchen table. For some, luxury solo holidays in Devon are about finding the mental (and physical) space to begin a creative project. For others, reading glossy magazines in the hot tub, ambling from coffee shop to pizzerias, and poking about in antiques shops is all that's on the itinerary. From cosy cottages with starlit fire pits to adventures with your dog far out on the moors; here's to choosing for you, and you alone.
