Lydford Castle, Dartmoor

A secluded village that dates back to the late 9th century. The vilalge is dominated by the castle which dates back to 1195. Worth a look is St Petrock's church where ornamental bench-ends show Dartmoor plants, birds and animals framing saints and martyrs.

Nearby is the magnificent Lydford Gorge which offers lots of exploring and events for all the family.
