Welcome to South Devon National Landscape

In recognition of its special qualities South Devon National Landscape was designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty  in 1960.

One of 46 National Landscapes in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and a member of the  National Landscapes Association, these protected landscapes are managed through local Partnerships on behalf of the nation.

 

South Devon National Landscape is one of a family of protected landscapes in the UK. With the guidance of a Partnership , the team works to enhance South Devon’s outstanding beauty, for which the designation was applied. The special qualities of South Devon National Landscape include its rugged coastline, sandy beaches, secretive estuaries, patchwork countryside and historic villages – to name but a few!
