Kents Cavern is one of the most important Stone Age sites in Europe and one of Britain’s best showcaves!

On your visit you’ll go back to a time when the cave was home to ancient humans, sheltering from extreme weather, making fires, shaping tools and hunting Ice Age animals. As you walk through the extensive labyrinth of caverns, you’ll be surrounded by 400 million year old rocks and spectacular stalagmites and stalactites.

Our entertaining cave guides tell the story of a 15 year long Victorian Excavation which uncovered some of Britain’s most ancient secrets…

All tours around the cave are guided and begin in the Vestibule Chamber, as you enter

the cave you’ll feel the temperature at a constant 14c. Your tour guide will lead you through the Long Arcade to reveal how the caves were formed 2.5 million years ago and how stalagmite floors formed, sealing in the evidence of Ice Age occupations. Down in the Rockies you’ll see stalagmites and stalactites decorating this pretty chamber.

Return through Clinnicks Gallery into the Cave of Inscriptions and the Labyrinth to see examples of the earliest tools ever found in Britain, along with bones and teeth of ancient Ice Age animals. Into the Bears Den to experience the famous Kents Cavern blackout, a favourite since the 1930s. Head down the Water Gallery and up to the Great Chamber with its exhibition dedicated to the Stone Age and Victorian excavators...

Home to England’s highest waterfall, descending a staggering 220ft, Canonteign Falls is a breathtaking Devon attraction, and a wonderful day out for all the family.

t. 01647 252434 e. info@canonteignfalls.com

Situated within Dartmoor National Park in the heart of Devon’s Teign Valley, the waterfalls tumble down ancient rock formations to meet the lakes below, offering some of the most spectacular waterfall and ancient bluebell woodland scenery in Devon.

A breathtaking sight, described by one visitor as “one of the most magical places on earth ”, wildlife thrives in the peace and tranquillity that makes the Falls a haven for both adults and children. Well-marked pathways take you on three scenic walks, suitable for varying ages and abilities. Our Victorian fern garden at the top of the Falls is a magical hidden treasure of Victorian landscaping.

We have seven interconnecting lakes. The main Lily Lake has a central island with beautiful purple flowering rhododendrons and provides safe cover for the many Mallard ducks and Canada geese. Clearing of trees has been undertaken at the Falls end of the lake and visitors can now enjoy much enhanced views whilst walking around it. The six lower lakes are linked up with grassy walks and bridges. Planting combinations of fox dogwood, acers, gunnera and pampas grass provide year round texture and colour.

Taking the path leading to the wetlands and lower lakes is one of the most fascinating nature walks in Devon, giving you the opportunity to spot kingfishers, bats, butterflies, wildfowl, and dragonflies. The Canonteign bees have an idyllic corner in the old orchard where they busy away making delicious honey. Honey harvesting is done on site and our fresh honey is on the shop shelves usually within 48 hours of collection from the hives. The Pirate Ship climbing structure within the large play area offers rock hold walls, a fireman`s pole and pull up ramps or children can go below deck and create a den. So gather up your treasure chests “me hearties” and let’s set sail! You can even add to the fun with pirate hats and other related items available from our shop.

Café Our café offers locally sourced, freshly made selection of delicious salads, open sandwiches, homemade soups and much more. We have a daily specials board with a large variety of additional fayre that always includes a vegan, vegetarian and gluten free option.

And why not enjoy a delicious latte or cappuccino made with freshly ground Italian coffee and a slice of one of our delicious homemade cakes or perhaps a traditional Devon Cream Tea after your walk?

The Gift Shop at Canonteign is situated in the original farm buildings of Canonteign Estate in what was most likely the milking parlour. This season we have a whole new range of stock showcasing unusual and imaginative gifts for all the family, many of which are made locally. These include some stunning new pottery, turned wooden gifts, ornaments, jewellery, pretty scarves and colourful bags, wooden and educational toys, gardening gifts, soaps, ornaments and our new men’s range! Our branded merchandise includes Canonteign Falls tea towels, bags, mugs and prints. We also sell Becky Bettesworth prints, and a range of chocolates, fudges, jams and chutneys from all over the West Country: delicious!

THE MULTI-AWARD WINNING

PAIGNTON PANTOMIME PRODUCTIONS

“Before midnight on her 16th birthday, the Princess shall prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and she will die” This chilling curse from the wicked witch at Princess Rose’s christening is the prelude to a series of events and scenes filled with tension, laughter, song, dance and everything a pantomime should be. Can she be saved from this fate and if so who will save her?

Winners of the “Best Pantomime” in the NODA South West awards in 2014, 2017 and 2018 this Christmas Paignton Pantomime Productions brings “Sleeping Beauty”, another fabulous value for money pantomime, to the Palace Theatre, Paignton. PPP has been bringing top quality pantomime to South Devon audiences since 1935 and built an enviable reputation

for fast moving, colourful and thoroughly entertaining pantomimes. As regulars will know there will be numerous colourful costumes, a five piece professional band, a hilarious professional script, award nominated choreography together with a mixture of songs both old and new, all brought to you by the very best of local talent. There will also be lots of audience participation and who knows perhaps a little water.

This year we will be collecting for “The Friends of the Palace Theatre” a group dedicated to helping the theatre operators, Jazz Hands, enhance your theatrical experience when visiting the Palace.

The last five PPP Christmas pantomimes have been enjoyed

by over 22,300 people at the Palace Theatre, Paignton and tickets are already selling well for this year’s Sleeping Beauty. So pop along to the theatre box office and book your seats, or telephone 01803 665800 or go to the “Buy Tickets” section on the Palace Theatre website to book your seats online. There are performances at 2.3Opm on the 21st, 22nd, 26th, 28th, 29th December, 1st and 4th January, and 7.30pm on the 23rd, 27th, 30thDecember and 2nd and 3rd January and 1pm and 6pm on the 5th January.

A feast of Christmas entertainment awaits and we promise that unlike Princess Rose nobody will sleep during this pantomime!

Tavistock Inn One of England’s oldest pubs, Tavistock Inn dates back to about 1413 when Newbridge was built.

The bridge was “new” when it was built- hence it’s name - and so was the pub, a welcome stop for weary travellers who had just climbed Newbridge hill. And little has changed, for good beer, wines, spirits and soft drinks, including a fine selection of real ales are still dispensed to visitors from near and far, together with some of the best pub food you’ll find in Devon with local produce being used when available.

The Globe Inn The Globe’s life as a coach house started way back in the 1600s, and since then its role in the community hasn’t much changed. Of course, the building is now much warmer and the plumbing much more reliable, but some things just don’t change.

Comforting home-cooked food comes out of the kitchen, and the two well-stocked bars all serve the finest local tipples.

Cromwell Arms This award-winning pub which sits at the gateway to the Moors in Bovey Tracey is a comfortable and friendly spot for beer drinking. Rooms are available, and the food here is great, but, as a village pub, the atmosphere is second to none.

Log burners keep the place toasty in the colder months, and the sunny lawn is popular in summer.

Plume of Feathers The Plume is Princetown’s oldest building, and it feels like it. But that’s not to say that that’s a bad thing. This traditional historic pub is perfectly placed for walkers, hikers and tourists in the area and is decked out in proper granite walls and wooden beams.

The beer on tap is local and delicious, and the staff are very friendly.

Bearslake Inn The Bearslake is what we call a real pub, and by that we mean that locals don’t even have to ask the bar staff for their next drink.

The restaurant here is of exceptionally high quality, and a good selection of beers are available. Bearslake is believed to have once been a working farm that dates all the way back to the 13th century, so there’s a hell of a lot of history in these walls!

Lake Sourton, Okehampton Tel: 01837 861334.

The Rugglestone The Rugglestone is a traditional Dartmoor pub, complete with wooden beams, an oversized hearth with a roaring fire which burns year-round and a long history of coachmen and their antics. The food here is hearty and delicious – just what the doctor ordered after a long day in the great outdoors – and the beer garden is a pretty wisteria-clad backdrop, perfect for afternoon beers.

The New Inn The New Inn is just about everything you could wish for from a country pub. Full of character, great beers, better food and a welcome atmosphere.
