If you did fancy a public-transport holiday, one option might be to take a train through the South Hams and stop here and there along the way for a day or so. If you get the stopper, it goes via Exeter, Dawlish, Teignmouth, Newton Abbot, Totnes. You can get a branch line to Exmouth, or perhaps Paignton and then on a steam train and ferry to Dartmouth, which is rather lovely. Paignton and Torquay are bungalowsville, but some of that south coast is brilliant. I always want to stop when I go by on the train...
North coast: you need a car, perhaps rather less to do if it rains up there and not much history as nothing ever happens. Lynton & Lynmouth, Clovelly, Tintagel all worth a day out. If you do go to the North coast I heartily recommend The Big Sheep.
