| Brief Description: | Devon and Cornwall, as England's most westerly counties, harbor a historical and cultural imperative not found elsewhere on the island. Cornwall itself maintained a Celtic culture until the late 18th century, elsewhere eradicated by the Saxons. Playing upon the cultural attractions, not to mention the geographical extremities, this Rough Guide covers the best beaches and cultural attractions without the promotional gloss, which typically clouds the subject. Listings of recommended sleeping, eating, drinking and entertainment locales are provided. |
