If you want to cut the cost of your journey and don’t mind taking a little longer to reach your destination, coach travel is probably the way to go. The country’s main long-distance coach carrier is National Express (t 0845 600 7245, www.nationalexpress.com), which operates services from all over Britain to the Southwest. The main London terminus is Victoria, from where coaches leave for Bath (from £5 one-way), Bristol (from £5 one-way), Exeter (from £5 one-way), Torquay (from £7 one-way), Plymouth (from £8 one-way), Truro (from £10 one-way) and Penzance (from £12 one-way). The earlier you book, the cheaper your fare will be.

A range of passes and discounts is also available, including half-price fares for over-60s, Family Coachcards (£16, two children travel free if accompanied by two full-fare paying adults) and 16 to 26 Coachcards (£10, giving young adults one third of all fares).
