Torrington cycle hire is conveniently located next to the Tarka trail with free parking in the old station car park. We hired two bikes for our children for the afternoon by just calling in. The owners/staff were all friendly and helpful and we were quickly issued a couple of bikes with helmets and puncture kit. Price was reasonable and we had a lovely afternoon walking the trail towards Bideford whilst the children cycled. Would highly recommend.

We visited Rosemoor on 23rd August when the late summer perennial borders were at their astonishing best. We loved the borders, the rose garden, the interesting collection of trees and the incredible fruit & vegetable garden with it endless rows of lettuce and espaliered apples. Just excellent!

We had a lovely meal here as a pre show treat. The choice of meals were good, with a beef dish, chicken, and lamb, and two vegetarian choices and a prawn Thai curry, all served with either chips or new potatoes, and a wonderful choice of vegetables.If you have enough room the puddings were lovely too, lemon cheesecake, brownies with ice cream are highly recommended.
