Default heathrow-devon-scilly advice



wrote in message
...

Hi. I am planning to land at Heathrow in early June and have five days to
kill and instead of doing the usual in London, I was thinking of taking a
train to Devon, rent a car in Devon, staying for three or so days and then
heading out to spend a night on the Isles of Scilly. Then drive back to
Devon, and train back to into London, where we are meeting friends.

Some questions:

1. Doable? Enjoyable? Looking for relaxing, quaint town, good food.

2. If not, other alternatives?

3. Suggestions for places to stay, train and rental car tips?

4. Food tips?

Thanks in advance.

It's too far to go in 5 days to be relaxing.

If you want relaxing and quaint within the time available I suggest the
Norfolk/Suffolk coasts (avoiding the larger resorts)
