Dartmoor: Star-gazing

by iris2002

Get a few of your mates together - wrap up warm - bring Thermos and sandwhiches and blankets and then take a night drive on a clear night into Dartmoor and watch the stars - undisturbed by light pollution > MAGIC!!Starry, starry night Paint your palette blue and grey Look out on a summer's day With eyes that know the darkness in my soul Shadows on the hills Sketch the trees and daffodils Catch the breeze and the winter chills In colours on the snowy linen land Now I understand What you tried to say to me And how you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free They would not listen They did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now la la laaa la laaa .... :) wrap up warm - bring torches and hot drinks

The Old Thatched Inn: A Basic but pleasant pub

by ChrisnJan

A quiet pub with friendly staff, a clean interior and a small lawned garden for the warmer weather. They have some very nice beers here, Jail ale being my reccomendation for this establishment. There is a simple menu offering the usual pub grub at very reasonable prices, although basic we enjoyed the food we had here and found it to be very good value for money.

A bit 'tongue in cheek', but highly informative if you're on a Dartmoor ghost trail, as all the Dartmoor ghosts are listed here, plus a list of grusome Dartmoor murders, as well as quirky legends around famous Devon people such as Sir Francis Drake and urr the Gubbins of Lydford and the ghost of Kitty Jay. Fantastic.Lydford actually does appear to be an extremely haunted Dartmoor spot. Hardly surprising with that old stannary prison, so called Lydford Castle.This Dartmoor...
