Merrivale Stones (0.9 miles)
Dartmoor is littered with mysterious standing stones, hut circles and old burial chambers believed to have been constructed up to 5,000 years ago. The stones at Merrivale are probably Dartmoor's most easily accessible, and include the longest double stone row in Europe, a stone circle, menhirs (standing stones) and a kistvaen (burial tomb).

Dartmoor Prison Heritage Centre (2.6 miles)
Right next to the (still in use) prison itself, which is a fairly frightening looking building. One visit will ensure that kids abandon all thoughts of crime as a glamorous lifestyle.

Peter Tavy Inn (2.8 miles)
The food here is a real cut above most pub grub.

High Moorland Visitor Centre (2.9 miles)
Start your exploration of Dartmoor here; run by national park staff, there are interactive displays on the moorland's wildlife and history, information on guided walks, an art gallery with regularly changing exhibitions and a shop selling local maps and books for the outdoor enthusiast.

Tavistock Trout Fishery (3.1 miles)
Five fly fishing lakes, an on site tackle shop and free tea and coffee facilities.
