The walk:

Our Venford route is one of the more adventurous family walks in the collection, so this is not the one for tiny tired legs or fresh white trainers.

Give yourself around 3 hours for the full adventure. That gives you time to park up, get everyone ready, explore properly, move at a family pace and still head back to Holne without turning it into a route march.







The food and drink stop:


Run by Tom and Tina, this is a proper family run Dartmoor village pub and one of our Dartmoor Partner hospitality partners. It feels wholesome, welcoming and nicely unfussy, which is exactly what you want after a muddy walk with children.

They have a great choice of local beers, brilliant food and a small, cute outdoor area with grass, benches and umbrellas, tucked into the heart of the village.


This is not a breakfast stop, so think lunch, an afternoon drink, or proper pub grub after the walk. It is well priced, good quality and a lovely place to land once everyone has earned something decent to eat.
