Devon’s name comes from the word Dumnonia, as it was once home to the Dumnonni Celts during the British Iron Age and Roman Britain, and is thought to mean ‘deep valley dwellers’. Devon is a very rural county, made up of hilly landscapes, coastal cliffs and sandy shores. It has 2 national parks, several areas of outstanding beauty and not forgetting its world famous cream teas!

Full of history and intriguing folklore, it's no wonder there are many spooky tales to be told from this county.

Wiltshire also has many White Horses, carved onto its vista. I happily lived in Wiltshire for several years and still visit this beautiful county a few times a year.
