The "Forest of Dartmoor", which covers a large part of Devon in the West Country of southern England, actually refers to an old hunting ground rather than a wooded area. It is in between Exeter and Plymouth with Tavistock on its western edge. It is one of the best areas in country for Bronze Age remains with burial stones and stone circles all over the moor. There are few major towns apart from Princetown and Tavistock but many villages throughout the park boasting attractive buildings and welcoming pubs.
Historic places to visit on Dartmore
The major attractions here are the moor and tors themselves with all the Bronze Age history that goes with them. The wild ponies are always a sight to be admired as are the many small but pretty villages, each with warm pubs serving decent food. There are some older Castles and stannaries serving as a reminder of the importance of tin mining to the area.
