Inspired by South West England

Recognize the dramatic cliffs of West Bay?  Fans (like me!) of British crime drama Broadchurch certainly do and so will those who scour these fossil-flecked cliffs along the stunning stretch of South West England's 200-million-year-old Jurassic Coast.  Many of Britain's best-loved artists have found their muse here in Devon and Dorset as well. 
Classic literary works, stunning movie locales, and dramatic television scenery - find out more in Janie Robinson's latest Cruise and Travel Lifestyle magazine story Timeless Reads and Epic Reels.
