Devon Holidays- Exploring Dartmoor
Dartmoor National Park is situated in South Devon in South West England covering 368 square miles, which makes it the largest and wildest area of open country in Southern England. It is a stunning place to visit at anytime of the year with its rugged landscape, wooded valleys, beautiful lake-like reservoirs, wind-swept tors and picturesque market towns.
History
Dartmoor was created approximately 280 million years ago from magma rising up through the Earth’s crust at a temperature of 900-1000C, it then cooled and solidified to form the granite which covers 65% of the moor. The moor was also one of Britain’s largest tin mining areas back in the 12th Century and the stone built homes of the miners can be seen dotted along riverbanks and streams. Other historical reminders of Dartmoor’s past include Stone Circles, Cairns and Stone Rows date back to the Bronze Age. Another long-standing piece of history is the prison at Princetown. It was originally built by and for the prisoners of war during the Napoleonic War where its isolated, physical position used to act as a deterrent to any prisoner looking to escape.
Local Towns
Tavistock
The market town of Tavistock is situated on the River Tavy and is full of breathtaking architecture and historical character. It was once a major copper producing area and is mostly famous for being the birthplace of Sir Francis Drake. The town hosts weekly market and farmers’ markets and is also famous for holding the annual ‘Goose Fair’ which dates back from the 12th Century and sees craftsmen and tradesmen from all over the country.
Bovey Tracey
Situated on the River Bovey, Bovey Tracey is one of the main gateways to Dartmoor on the Eastern edge. It is a pretty Dartmoor-granite built town with a mixture of shops and historical buildings. The nearby Becky Falls Woodland Park is worth visiting and was voted Devon’s Top Beauty Spot.
Moretonhampstead
Moretonhampstead began as a small Saxon settlement and has now grown into a bustling market town boasting a range of shops and cafes. It was once the industrial centre for wool, paper, tannery and tallow works and the church dates back to the 15th Century. There are a range of accommodation types in the area from Dartmoor hotels, campsites and holiday cottages.
Activities and Attractions
Dartmoor’s unique landscape and rising tors can be explored by foot, bike or horseback. The Two Moor Way is a superb moorland walking route between Ivybridge and Holne, as is the Old Granite Stone Export Trail from Haytor Quarries to Teignmouth along the Templar Way. There are a variety of historical sites to explore around Dartmoor, including Buckland Abbey in Yelverton, which was once a Cistercian monastery and the home to Sir Francis Drake and Castle Drogo in Drewsteignton which is known as the ‘last castle to be built in England’ and has fabulous views overlooking the moor. A great family attraction is the Miniature Pony Centre based at North Bovey with over 150 animals including miniature Shetlands and donkeys.
