Where capes, coves and coastal charm invite you to slow down and settle in.
Breathe in the salt air as waves meet shoreline cliffs and the sound of fiddles drifts through seaside villages. This is a place where lighthouses stand watch over quiet beaches, artists craft treasures by hand and each curve in the road leads to something worth pausing for.
