The Dartmoor National Park

The Dartmoor National Park covers an area of 368 square miles - the largest and wildest area of open country in Southern England, to be enjoyed all year round. Bluebells in Spring, many wild flowers in Summer and Heather covered moorland welcoming the Autumn tints of Bracken and gorse.

Dartmoor offers a unique landscape of deep wooded gorges, tumbling rocky rivers and beautiful lake like reservoirs. Experience stunning views from one of many dramatic craggy Tors, visit ancient monuments and archaeological sites, remains of tin mines and quarries. On the fringes of the Moor see ruined castles, picturesque villages, mediaeval abbeys and ancient churches. Something for everyone young and old.

Dartmoor is a special place, a huge nature reserve, where you are sure to experience nature first hand. The famous Dartmoor ponies by the road side also Foxes, Badgers, Deer, Buzzards, Herons and many other birds and at night hear the eerie cry of Owls.
