This is a relaxing place to travel around - and a very flat one, if you’re weighing up walking and cycling destinations - dotted with ancient chutes, castles and charming seaside towns. It’s this peacefulness which makes it such a wonderful destination to discover the old way, via the highways and byways, and the coaching inns and pubs with rooms along the routes.
