Why we stop here

A lakeside café on the edge of Dartmoor, a few minutes off the A30 between Okehampton and Launceston. Big picture windows over the water, Devon-roasted Cartwright coffee, cakes, fry-ups until noon and a proper lunch menu. A cracking spot to refuel with a view.

Taken from their website in October 2026. Cafés change their hours with the seasons and shut for the odd holiday, so check their own site before you set off. We'd hate to be the reason for an avoidable bonk.
