Fox Tor Café

Right across from the Princetown visitor centre, a proper Dartmoor institution. A warm welcome whatever the weather, hearty plates, cycle hire and a bunkhouse if the legs give out.

Puffing Billy

Great Torrington · Tarka Trail

Parked at the old Torrington station right on the Tarka Trail. A classic refuel: tea, cake and plenty of company in lycra.

The Glorious Oyster

Instow · Tarka Trail

A beachside seafood shack on the estuary at Instow. A scenic Tarka Trail stop for when a flapjack just won't cut it.
