Once again we found ourselves close to the Somerset / Devon border (we spend a lot of time travelling up and down the Link Road!). As usual we thought we would combine our journey with a feed in a local hostelry. After a little bit of searching on line, we came across The Redwoods Inn, […]

The Royal George, Appledore
The Royal George, Appledore has only just re-opened after an extensive refurbishment. I hadn’t been into the pub before it closed, so can’t comment on the change the re-furb has brought. All I can say is that it looks amazing now! Some pictures of the pub are on the website. The interior has a nautical […]
The Globe Inn, Sampford Peverell
The pretty little village of Sampford Peverell is very close to junction 27 of the M5. Whilst mooching about and killing time in Wellington, we decided to take the short hop down the M5 to try out The Globe Inn. When we arrived it was a sunny autumn day. The pub was very busy – […]
The Crealock Arms, Littleham
The Crealock Arms, is tucked away down a narrow lane and could easily be missed except for the sign on the road pointing you in the right direction. As you drive through into the generous car park, the views on the left of the hills are really lovely. Due to the time of year we […]
The Black Horse Inn, Torrington
I had heard a lot of good things about the food in The Black Horse Inn, Torrington, so on a beautiful Bank Holiday Monday in August what better way to spend the day than a walk over Torrington Common and down by the river, followed by a big feed in The Black Horse Inn. The […]
Fremington Quay Cafe, Fremington
I’m a big fan of Fremington Quay Cafe, Fremington, (click here for its website) and judging by how busy it was last week, so is half of North Devon! Situated on the Tarka Trail between Bideford and Barnstaple, Fremington Quay is a must stop for locals and tourists alike. The views are stunning. There are […]
Barricane Beach Cafe, Woolacombe
I have heard so many good stories about the home made Sri Lankan curry at The Barricane Beach Cafe, Woolacombe (click here for its Facebook page), that it became almost number one on my bucket list! Finally, whilst our fussy daughter was in rehearsals in the summer, we drove over to Woolacombe to try the […]
The Coffee Cabin, Appledore
What can we say about The Coffee Cabin, Appledore (click here for its Facebook page) – a little gem of a place. The coffee is superb! Voted in 2014 as one of the top restaurants to eat under £20 in The Sunday Times Top Restaurant list it truly deserves the award. The staff are friendly […]
Peter Tavy Inn, Dartmoor
The Peter Tavy Inn, Dartmoor is nestled in the small hamlet of Peter Tavy, is a typical old traditional village pub. Stone floors, low ceilings and a snug which was perfect for us to sit in and relax after our excursion across Dartmoor. The menu, listed on a chalk board by the bar, was reasonably […]
Pyne Arms, East Down
The Pyne Arms, East Down is a stunning old traditional pub with low ceilings, wooden beams and when we visited in October it had the obligatory roaring fire. Such a lovely homely and welcoming atmosphere. We ordered drinks and asked to see the menus when we arrived explaining that I would require a gluten free […]
