3Clovelly, Devon

Few villages in England feel as unique as Clovelly, a privately-owned fishing village clinging to the cliffs of North Devon.

Cars are not allowed, so visitors descend the steep cobbled street on foot, passing whitewashed cottages adorned with bright flowers. The walk eventually leads to a small harbor, where fishing boats bob against the backdrop of the Atlantic. Clovelly’s isolation has preserved its old-world charm, offering visitors a glimpse into a simpler, slower pace of life.
