Megan facilitated the most wonderful mosaic making workshop in her Devon studio, with glorious views and relaxed atmosphere. The day was informative, fun and very enjoyable, meeting new people and sharing the most delicious vegetarian lunch in Megan's quirky kitchen! Megan encourages your creativity to flow and I was thrilled to go home with a new skill and piece of my own artwork. I would highly recommend booking one of Megan's workshops, you won't be disappointed.

The Grand Western Canal Country Park meanders through 11 1/4 miles of beautiful mid-Devon countryside between Tiverton and Lowdwells (near the Somerset border). Declared a Country Park in 1971 and a Local Nature Reserve in 2005, the canal is a wonderfully relaxing place for a peaceful walk or cycle ride along the towpath, or even take a ride onboard the much-loved horse-drawn barge that has been taking passengers for trips along the canal since 1974. The abundance of wildlife and scenic landscape that characterise the Canal today make it a great place to enjoy walking, cycling, boating, fishing and picnics.
The Tiverton canal is lovely for a relaxing ,scenic walk on a Sunday afternoon or anytime. The Canal tea shop sells fabulous ice creams, and other food and drinks, but closes from beginning of october until mothering sunday .I often go walking here. it suits the more avid walker as well as walks can be relatively short or long and there is the option of a horse drawn barge trip during the summer months

The Stoodleigh Inn is a small village local set just outside of Tiverton and only about 2 miles from the north devon link road....you will always be given a warm welcome from myself and the locals...enjoy a real ale beside the roaring fire or relax in the large beer garden if the sun decides to make an appearance...
We where staying in Stoodleigh for our honeymoon and went to the inn for dinner most nights. It is such a friendly pub and the food was delicious. Nothing was to much trouble. Lizzie was so friendly and always made sure everything was ok for us, defo recommend

In some ways, Tiverton Castle isn't a place you'd go out of your way to visit - and, as it's still privately occupied, there are only a couple of days a week when you can get in to the Grounds. More prohibitive seems to be the maximum of 3 hours that you can be there. So, it's naturally off-putting... ...but it's a little gem. The strength of the place is in the softly-spoken ex-lawyer who guides you round the 'open bits' for an incredible two hours dealing with the site in a historical order that places everything in its correct order - from pre-Norman occupations on and around the place through the civil wars and up to the present day. Ask him for some more information on a subject and he keeps coming up with more details. This was a real gem on our short holiday but be prepared to be standing or walking slowly around for somewhere approaching 2 hours. There are seats in some rooms and places to lean up against outside but others may need these but that would be the only down side. We had just 45 minutes after the tour to take in the Gardens which are colourful in themselves - the wife went there while I hunted down the present owner and chatted to him about the small war collection of Roundhead armour and weaponry that he has. He's very knowledgeable, too, and I got a lot from his responses and information. If you're in the area, this is not a place to miss.
