Eating Out
Pubs
The Olde Plough Inn at Bere Ferrers is our most local pub and serves up local ales, home cooked meals and regular live music. About a 10 minute drive or an hours walk from the cottage, it has a warm, friendly atmosphere and happily welcomes dogs.
The Peter Tavy Inn is a 13th century pub on the edge of Dartmoor known for their fantastic menu made using seasonal, local ingredients. A popular pub, it’s best to book in advance particularly at busy times.
The Cornish Arms in Tavistock is an award winning pub with cosy indoors both inside and outside. It’s a great place to retreat to after a day exploring the town.
