As the regional capital and home to a rich maritime heritage, Plymouth is one of Devon's most dynamic and fascinating places to stay.

Today, we cross the county border into Cornwall with a stop in the seaside town of Looe. The resort prides itself on its fresh fish, so if you choose to partake your tastebuds will be satisfied with award-winning fish and chips or maybe a gourmet meal in one of the restaurants overlooking the harbour! Later, we take you to the incredible Eden Project. Home to the largest indoor rainforest in the world, this former clay pit is a botanist's dream; keep your eyes peeled for the exotic fruits growing inside!
