Devon Life

Life has been exciting, busy and really fun :) We have been doing lots of traveling around England in the last month (it has been exactly a month since we left Canada...we have done so much since then it feels like ages ago). See our Flickr site for lots of photos!

We looked around the north of Devon at first and it is really beautiful. Gorgeous beaches and cute villages but zero rental properties (of anything good and on the coast) and lack of work opportunities. So we decided it made more sense to head south and see what was on offer there and I am really glad we did!

We secured a rental property on the south coast of Devon in a beautiful seaside town called Seaton. It is about an half hr drive from the city of Exeter which is a really vibrant university city. Beautiful Cathedral, unbelievable shopping, quaint quay area with cobbled roads and fantastic restaurants. Just an all around cool place. We are not too far away from Dartmoor National park which is full of cross country mtn biking and hiking and the South West Coast Path runs along the cliffs of our town. It is a 630 mile coastal path which runs from Minehead, Somerset to Poole Harbour Dorset. There is also an airport on the outskirts of Exeter so easy access to those Europe trips we want to take!

The house is about 3 blocks from the seafront and 2 blocks from the centre of town on a quiet lane. It is a detached home with fenced garden which we feel really lucky to have gotten. Email me for contact details...we move in on June 15th.
