"Many seaside towns in the UK have thriving art scenes, and Ilfracombe is no exception. The Ilfracombe Art and Craft Society germinated in the 1960s, and since then has evolved into one of the most popular exhibitions in Devon, perched on the promenade looking out at Capstone Hill. You can buy prints and sculptures by local artists, as well as more extravagant items such as handmade violins and pottery."

"Few museums are this cool. Vibrant surfboards and vintage wetsuits line the walls; sepia images catch your eye. The stories are compelling: 18th-century British sailors riding Hawaiian waves – England's 1920s homegrown surf pioneers. Here, heritage meets hanging ten."

"Enjoy a fun day out at this scenic park, 1 mile from Ilfracombe, which boasts a children’s play area and a sensory garden which are both open all the time, as well as a Boat Lake, Duck Pond and Mill Leat which powers the on-site mill wheel. Let the kids burn off steam on the play equipment and feed the ducks before popping into the Old Mill House and Tea Rooms for cake and a coffee."
