Why choose Dartmoor?
Dartmoor National Park’s purple heather coated moorland and incredible rock tors provide a natural playground for outdoor pursuits such as walking, off-road cycling, climbing and horse-riding. Situated in the heart of Devon, this vast untamed wilderness covers 368 square miles of countryside. Follow rushing rivers from the moorland down to dramatic wooded valleys. Discover mystical stone circles and spot the semi-wild Dartmoor ponies roaming across the hills. Steeped in history, the majority of the remains on Dartmoor date back to the Bronze Age. The most famous of these prehistoric settlements include Grimspound, Merrivale and Drizzlecombe. Some of these sites have inspired myths and legends, with Grimspound featuring in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s ‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’.
Places to Visit in Dartmoor
Visit the lively stannary towns of Ashburton and Chagford for superb restaurants, antiques and independent shops. The popular market town of Tavistock, home of the cream tea, is the only town in Devon to hold world heritage status. The town’s ancient Pannier Market, is open every day from Tuesday until Saturday and offers an eclectic mix of artisan goods to purchase.
Where are the best places to eat and drink in Dartmoor?
Dartmoor is home to some of the best produce in the UK. The area is renowned for high quality beef and lamb as well as fruit and vegetables. Many of the best restaurants in the area use locally sourced ingredients.
Warren House Inn - Located high up on the moor, this inn has been a haven for passing travellers and walkers for over 150 years - the log fire is believed to have been burning continuously since 1845. Serving classic pub food and special homemade pies, this is a great place to spend a couple of hours after exploring the moor.
Riverford Field Kitchen - Ingredients don’t come much fresher than this; the organic vegetables and herbs are picked daily from the farm and field kitchen garden. There is no set menu at the Riverford; instead a range of dishes are brought out to tables depending on what vegetables are in season. Advanced bookings are essential as there is only one sitting per meal - 12:30 for lunch and 7:00pn for supper.
Gidleigh Park - If you fancy a gastronomic delight then head to Gidleigh Park. Now under the stewardship of Head Chef Chris Eden, you can expect culinary delights made from the highest quality local ingredients. Located on the upper reaches of the River Teign, the setting and view is almost as impressive as the food.

What is the weather like in Dartmoor?
