October Half Term Breaks in the South West

Before winter’s chill takes full hold of the UK, get yourself to the South West of England for a fun-filled October Half Term break. Most October Half Term breaks will be between Monday 23rd and Friday 27th October 2023.

You can also expect to find lots of spook-tacular events on during the October Half Term. Find inspiration for your October activities by reading our October things to do posts:

Enjoy the last of the autumn scenery in Somerset on some walks through the countryside. Somerset is home to the Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), as well as the Quantock Hills AONB and the majority of Exmoor National Park.

Visit Devon or Cornwall for your final fill of stunning beaches for the year. North Devon and North Cornwall’s coasts offer up some fantastic waves for avid surfers, with the water not as cold as you might expect thanks to the sun heating the water all summer.

Dorset is also blessed with some stunning locations. Half of the Cranborne Chase AONB sits within the county’s borders, as well as the Dorser AONB, and the magnificent Jurassic Coast. Visit world-famous landmarks like Lulworth Cove in West Lulworth, and the 18-mile-long Chesil Beach which comes to an end when it meets the Isle of Portland.
