As the worldwide recession continues and the pound weakens against the dollar and the Euro, predictions are that ?staycations? or stay at home holidays will be on the increase this year. That doesn?t mean literally staying at ?home?, but taking a holiday within the UK is going to be far more popular than ever as people look for the best bargains for their hard earned pound.

Short breaks in Devon and Cornwall are the perfect solution to credit crunch holiday worries. The tourist industry in the south west is determined to offer visitors to this glorious part of the UK the best holiday solutions at budget prices and with the pound suffering against other currencies making your pound go further is at the top of everyone?s priorities. Rather than taking one, two week holiday most people will be planning shorter breaks this year, especially with concerns over employment issues. Travellers are leaving it much later to book holidays and are far more likely to choose self catering breaks rather than all inclusive holidays. Short breaks in Devon and Cornwall offer visitors a wealth of opportunities to design their own break to cater exactly to their needs.

Devon and Cornwall are two of the most popular UK destinations and tourist businesses are already reporting that bookings for short breaks are up on 2008. With hundreds of miles of stunning coastline, breathtaking countryside and a wide range of accommodation available, Devon and Cornwall are the perfect destinations for family holidays or romantic breaks for two. Accommodation ranges from luxury hotels on the English Riviera of Torbay to farmhouse breaks and country cottages situated in two of England?s finest national parks.

The tourism industry is one of the biggest employers in the Southwest, and after a lean year in 2008 competition to attract visitors will be fierce. This means that there are plenty of bargains to be had and shopping around could mean that your holiday budget goes much further than if you choose a holiday abroad. Short breaks in Devon and Cornwall offer you much more flexibility on when you take your break, making it easier to fit in around school holidays if you have children. There are no exchange rates to worry about and no passport control checks!

There?s plenty to see and do in Devon and Cornwall, with a variety of theme parks to entertain the children, award winning zoos and major attractions such as Cornwall?s stunning Eden Project. Superb sandy beaches offer those who enjoy a more sporting holiday the chance to experience some of the best surfing in Europe or for family breaks the chance to play in the sea and build a sandcastle. Inland, the countryside offers everything from wild moorland to stunning valleys and the South West Coastal Path gives walkers the opportunity to explore the breathtaking scenery of the North coast in all its dramatic glory. The entire region is dotted with inns and family Bed and Breakfast accommodation, offering travellers a warm, Westcountry welcome.

The region is also famous for its superb food, offering everything from fresh seafood delights to organic beef and Westcountry lamb. So instead of chancing the exchange rates this year, short breaks in Devon and Cornwall offer an excellent alternative and an easy way to holiday on a budget and still have one of the best holidays you?ll ever experience.
