What a lovely place . The air of tranquillity is amazing ,as is the Devon cream tea. Great visitor centre and good shops and a nice little Methodist chapel ,free parking and entry all go to make this a great place to visit . Just down the road from the steam railway another great place to visit.

The Parish Church of St Petroc

Reviewed By Traveler09087601488 - Devon, United Kingdom

Popped in when having a stroll around the churchyard. If you like a nose at churches this one is small clean and lovely. The lady volunteer was happy to chat about it's history and some of the unusual gravestones.

St. Pancras Church

Reviewed By 301lisa33 - Coventry, United Kingdom

This church is beautiful. It is huge, for such a small village. The snowdrops and primroses were out when we visited but the main beauty and interest is inside. The church offers several informative information boards. The church was hit by a devastating lightning strike in C17 and it was commemorated by the erection of huge boards describing events. The church boasts colourful, interesting ceiling bosses and an ancient painted wooden screen into the choir. There is also a colourful, intriguing animatronic horse hosting "Uncle Tom Cobley and all". It would be fabulous to see it in operation

St Michael and All Angels' Church

Reviewed By 603biancam - Angus, United Kingdom

This was our second visit to St Michael and All Angels and was as interesting as the first visit several years ago. Built by French and American prisoners of war (Napoleonic and 1812), the craftsmanship is breathtaking but to me more breathtaking is this is still an active church and although several 'tourists' came through while we were inside, the sanctity was not disturbed. The churchyard should be visited and plenty of time given to reading the markers.
