Tips

July 16, 2023

Hiking

A 15th century castle is a ruined and apparently haunted castle in the woods east of Totnes. English Heritage manage it and there is an entrance fee for non-members. It's worth a look around if you have the time. Otherwise, you can get a good glimpse of the castle from the footpaths that run around the area.

Hiking

You can see the castle from the path but it’s worth a visit in its own right.

Hiking

The castle has an excellent cafe, and small lake on the john Musgrave trail where there are waterfowl. The castle has a haunting atmosphere and you can learn all about the Pomeroy family's residence there
