(456)

The Rugglestone Inn is a unique, un spoilt Dartmoor inn delightfully located in the picturesque village of Widecombe in the Moor. Originally a cottage the grade II listed building was converted to an inn back in 1832 and named after a local logan stone. It is surrounded by peaceful moorland, adjacent to a pretty stream and just a few minutes walk from the centre of the village. Inside, there is a cosy bar with a wood burner and two further rooms, one of which has an open log fire, together creating a wonderful ‘home from home’ atmosphere. Outside is a large sheltered garden with picnic tables accessible via a small bridge over a delightful moorland stream and from where you can enjoy fabulous views. Children and dogs are welcome but we ask that dogs be kept on a lead. Our home cooked menu of locally sourced produce from suppliers such as Dartmoor Farmers Association, Gribbles Meat & Game, S & J Fisheries is extensive and offers a broad range for all tastes. Examples might include filled jacket potatoes from £4.75 and fresh fish and meat dishes from £10.50. Our bar is well stocked with real ales, farm cider and a comprehensive wine list. The real ales are served straight from the barrel and include different guest beers mainly from the southwest. Opening Hours

Great cause. Please sponsor if you can 🙏

210 miles. 24,000ft of climbing. Four days.

And one very good reason for doing it.

From Monday, Shallowford Trustees Ally Kohler and Johnny Walker will be setting out from the farm each morning to take on four challenging cycle routes across Devon, heading towards Plymouth, Exeter, Denbury and Okehampton 🚴🏻

They’ll be joined along the way by friends, volunteers, partner organisations, longtime supporters and local cyclists, with 15 riders taking part across the week.

The aim is to raise £10,000, enough to help around 180 children experience a four-day residential at Shallowford, particularly young people who might not otherwise get the chance to spend time on a working farm and out on Dartmoor.

As the week unfolds, we’ll also be sharing more about the people, partners and supporters connected to the ride, and the part they’ve played in Shallowford’s story.

They’ve got the hills ahead of them. Now we’d love to help get the fundraising moving too. They're already 13% of the way to our fundraising target 🎯

Follow along with us next week for daily updates from the road, and if you’d like to support the riders, you can donate through the link.

Every single penny will go towards Shallowford 👉
