About Great Britain
Great Britain is both an island and a political grouping of countries consisting of England, Scotland and Wales. This small island contains a wealth of diversity of geography and topography, peoples and dialects, local architecture and traditions and a rich history that has been world-facing and world-interacting for thousands of years. From the traces of the first inhabitants of the island in prehistoric times, through the colonisation by the Romans, invasions by Angles, Saxons, Vikings and Normans, to the establishment of a Parliament and constitutional monarchy, Great Britain is fascinating to explore. The landscape varies every few miles, with dales and vales, moors and coastline never far away and here and there you find proud post-industrial cities, flourishing cathedral cities, gentle market towns and picturesque villages, perhaps with a village green, pond, cricket pitch and ancient church, as well as the local pub. Traditions of local heritage feature strongly with festivals and pageants, local arts and crafts and artisan produce. Within any one region or county of this small island, there is always something else to discover.
If you are interested in a holiday home to rent in Devon, we can recommend this historic cottage in the picturesque village of Dittisham on the River Dart near Dartmouth: Rosemary Cottage Dittisham.
