Widecombe is a historic village, with its parish church rightly known as the cathedral of the moor. It is also home to the famous Widecombe fair. The area is surrounded by beautiful Tors and streams. Hidden valleys contain the remains of many past settlements, from medieval villages, to stone age and bronze age hut circles. The world famous Merrivale stone row is only half an hours drive away. Horse riding and canoeing are also popular local activities. Surrounding villages and towns offer regular farmers markets, with a taste of the local. Most of these villages you will find a warm welcome in their tearooms and inns. The larger villages also home to their own traditional country fair, emphasising country music and folk dancing. Many of Dartmoor's long distance walks pass this way, including the very popular two moor way which links the south Dartmoor coast with the Exmoor coast.
Best to bring your own car to really indulge your self here on the moors.
Guest access
There is a TV&DVD player in the lounge for your use and WIFI is available. Bed linen and towels are provided for your use.
You may be able to pick your own organic vegetables from our garden in season. Berrywood is not suitable for wheel chairs as we have no downstairs bedroom... Sorry.
Other things to note
We should tell you that we are on the open moor, continually visited by cattle.
Ponies, sheep and cows graze just inches away from the house, so get your cameras on stand by. If you are lucky, you might even get to see new born lambs and even baby ponies.

Neighbourhood highlights
Once out of our gate, you are on open moor. We are on the side of Wind Tor and the route of the Two Moors way. Plenty of cattle, sheep and ponies all around us. It takes a little longer, but it is possible to walk to the village across the beautiful moor instead of country lanes. We have plenty of maps and guide books to help you!
Also in bad weather we can loan you a raincoat and wellington boots. Hopefully not needed.
