We have tried and tested nearly all of the restaurants in our local area of the South Hams. However there’s one that really shines, and it takes some beating too. Our favourite causal dinning restaurant is in Ringmore. It’s just 20 minutes drive from Brightham House, and it’s called ‘The Journey’s End’. Boy are you in for a treat if you book this pub, we love it! The pub itself was built in the 13th century, so packed full of history and character too. There is a beautiful National Trust walk you might like to do before your meal...

Walk to East Soar, then to Overbeck’s. During your stay you might like to take in the beautiful views, and Devon countryside. We took a circular walk today which starts at the National Trusts East Soar car park. It takes about 45 mins to reach South Sands, in Salcombe where you can stop for lunch and refreshments. It takes you along the runway of what used to be RAF Bolt Head, through Tor Woods which at this time of year have lots of wild garlic growing, and a sea of bluebells.
