September 2013 marks the 50th anniversary of the Sindy brand and the UK's favourite fashion doll. To celebrate 50 years of success, Sindy will be holidaying this year in the Heart of Devon to visit top family attractions and natural sites, which make this one of the most beautiful places in the country for a family holiday. Exeter-based creator Pedigree Toys will be launching a range of celebratory Sindy dolls throughout her anniversary year to celebrate her success as a role model, best friend and fashion icon to millions of young girls.
The aim of Sindy holidaying in the Heart of Devon is to showcase the region as a great destination for a family holiday. Parents will reminisce on their own adventures with Sindy as children, while creating new memories with their own children by following in Sindy's footsteps in the Heart of Devon!
From the capital city of Exeter to quaint fishing villages, miles of rolling countryside and beautiful beaches along the World Heritage Jurassic Coast, the Heart of Devon really does have all the ingredients for the perfect family holiday! Kids will make lasting memories of exploring rockpools and searching for fossils on the beach, discovering 2012's Museum of the Year in Exeter, running free in two Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Dartmoor National Park, and visiting some top family attractions.
