The hunt is on to find the Heart of Devon's favourite activity as part of a new competition which has been launched today by Exeter and the Heart of Devon Hotels & Restaurants Association.
Celebrating the best that the Heart of Devon has to offer, the top ten list includes everything from cream teas, treks on Dartmoor and climbing to penguins, sailing and even kite surfing!
With something for everyone, Devon Hotels wants to hear from locals and visitors alike to find how you prefer to spend a day out in Devon and which of our activities will be crowned 'Devon Hotels Number 1 Day Out!'
James Sharp, chair of Devon Hotels said: "This is the first time we have launched a competition like this.
We want to highlight the wide variety of activities available for holidaymakers and residents in the area; which are part of Devon's city, coastal and country heritage and offering. We are really excited to see who our winner will be as the Association membership hasn't been able to agree!"
