Lonely Planet’s VP of Experience, Tom Hall, said: “Lonely Planet’s Ultimate United Kingdom Travelist brings together the UK’s most compelling sights and experiences, ranging from world-class museums and giant cathedrals to rollicking festivals, inky lochs and tiny pubs.
"Southwest England is home to some of the UK’s most captivating spots so it’s only right that a good number of the region’s wonderful offerings feature among our favourite.”
