We started our walk in the free car park next door to Okehampton Castle, where you can either climb a wooden stile onto the wooden footbridge across the West Okement River or take the easy route through a gate next door to the car park.

As the days get shorter, the air gets colder and winter approaches, we know that Christmas is just around the corner

You never know what the weather will do at the end of October, it could be lovely enough to enjoy some wonderful family walks and bike rides, or it might send us running for cover!

The Finalists have been announced for this year’s Devon Tourism Awards which will be presented at The Riviera International Conference Centre in Torquay on 28 November.

Half Term is nearly upon us, so we’ve had a look at some of the fun events that you can enjoy on and around Dartmoor, and listed five of them below.

A few weeks ago I had promised to deliver some of our Discover Dartmoor magazines to Tavistock Visitor Centre, and thought it would be fun for Maisie to have her first visit to Sourton Tors on our way.

This lovely spot has long been a favourite of mine, I used to bring Daisy and Skye here on a regular basis so introducing Maisie to the river and stunning views was an absolute pleasure.

Devon is breathtakingly beautiful at this time of year, so we’ve put together some ideas for you to try during the break.

More and more of us these days would prefer to take our dogs on holiday with us, rather than leaving them behind either in kennels or with a dog-sitter.

I don’t know about you, but living in Devon my absolute favourite time of year is the autumn. On Dartmoor, of course every season has its highlights and pleasures, but

Peering from the window of our cottage, which overlooks the rolling hillside of the moor, I am ‘wine in hand’, sipping on a nice cool glass of Sharpham.

Located in southwest England in the county of Devon, Dartmoor is a British National Park that’s known for its rocky landscape, its rolling vistas, its forests and rivers, and the wildlife that call it home.
