The festive season brings many Devon Christmas Markets which mean plenty of opportunities to get into the festive spirit! Christmas markets are a wonderful way to support local communities and buy gifts for loved ones. There are a wide variety of stalls from local arts and crafts to artisan food stalls. Sizzling sausages, mulled wine and cinnamon scents fill the air so after all that shopping why not treat yourself to a delicious festive treat from one of the many food stalls.
We have put together a list of our favorite Christmas markets in Devon:
