Cullompton Holidays

A holiday in Cullompton, mid Devon, puts you within easy driving distance of numerous tourist attractions in the south-west of England. The potential to indulge in a great range of activities, day trips and sightseeing is what makes a Cullompton holiday so appealing. Cullompton, which lies on the River Culm near the M5 motorway, was a medieval town, and the centre of town is a conservation area. Two grade I listed buildings offer a glimpse of a bygone era: St Andrew’s Parish Church dates back to the fifteen century, while The Walronds in Fore Street was built in around 1605. With seven grade II* and 90 grade II listed buildings, there’s enough architecture to make Cullompton worth close examination before exploring the rest of Devon and nearby Somerset.

 

Its location makes cheap UK holidays in Cullompton a very real possibility. There’s plenty of affordable accommodation nearby, from hotels to country houses; self-catering cottages and lodges; bed and breakfasts and guest houses; and caravan parks and camping sites. So whether you’re on a family holiday in Devon, taking a special romantic weekend away, a sightseeing holiday or a hiking holiday, Cullompton offers variety and accessibility.

 

Cullompton is just 15 miles from the historic university city of Exeter, 20 miles from the lovely seaside resort town of Exmouth, 20 miles from the tiny seaside village of Branscombe, which sits along a stretch of coast recognised as an East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and 25 miles from Lyme Regis, a Dorset holiday seaside town known as the Pearl of Dorset. Head north instead and 30 miles later you reach Barnstaple, and 20 miles beyond that the beautiful seaside town Ilfracombe. But a Cullompton holiday isn’t just about trips to the beach. Holidays in Devon are often orientated around hiking and nature. From Cullompton Exmoor National Park is within 35 miles, while Dartmoor National Park sits under 45 miles away.
