Brentor Near Tavistock - on the fringe of Moor.

Climb to the top of Brentor, which can be seen for miles. It's worth it because you get a fabulous view of Dartmoor,
most of Plymouth Sound and out to sea, Exmoor in the distance and a great swathe of East Cornwall. The church of St. Michael de Rupe is on the summit. Visit on a wet day and your heart will drop.... but climb up in time for a glorious
sunset and I guarantee you will never forget the experience. Ideal area for visiting Lydford Gorge, Cotehele, Buckland Abbey if you are a National Trust fan, and Morwellham Quay, Plymouth and Tavistock and of course the whole
of Dartmoor National Park. The Garden House, my favourite Dartmoor garden is close.
