Increasing numbers of holidaymakers are searching for getaways that genuinely deliver tranquillity and solitude. A sanctuary to disconnect from daily life and immerse yourself in nature, where modern stresses feel worlds away.

You'd be forgiven for thinking such serenity requires travelling to remote corners of the globe, but actually, numerous locations right across the UK provide opportunities for a screen-free retreat.

Camplify UK has compiled an index of destinations where you can unplug and unwind, with one county emerging as the winner.

The Analogue Escape Index weighed factors such as mobile signal strength, campsites without electricity, locations with minimal or no Wi-Fi coverage, and light pollution levels to identify places where you can genuinely immerse yourself in the natural world.

The index additionally factored in the quantity of National Trust sites and parks, alongside Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Taking the top spot was Devon, achieving impressive scores for National Trust properties, parks and stunning landscapes, reports the Express.

Excelling in the index thanks to its wealth of National Trust sites, AONBs, and National Parks, the South-West county provides abundant off-grid adventures.

Countless locations await those wanting to disconnect and enjoy nature undisturbed. From the dramatic Jurassic Coastline with its wild shores to Dartmoor National Park's vast, sweeping moorland.

Walking enthusiasts can spend days exploring the South West Coast Path, while swimmers will discover numerous wild swimming locations dotted throughout Dartmoor. For those with a penchant for history, Agatha Christie's holiday home at Greenway or Okehampton Castle are must-visits.

Devon truly caters to all tastes, and with an abundance of quaint campsites and stopovers scattered across the county, it's the ideal spot to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and savour the opportunity to unwind.
