クレジトンハムレッツでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Excellent value cafe that was very welcoming to a couple of soggy cyclists. Clean and warm, some bike parking.

Scooped some water out, filtered it and a made a coffee.

This proud, medieval church stands on the edge of Shobrooke village and, like so many churches in the area, has wonderful views over the rolling, pastoral landscape. The church dates back to the 15th century but the interior is considerably younger, mostly Victorian. If you hike up the lane opposite towards the village centre, you'll find the holy well embedded into a grassy bank on the eastern side.

A 180-acre (73 ha) park, wandering around the grounds is utter bliss. A deer park has been here for hundreds of years and there was also manor house, built in the 18th century. Whilst the house functioned as a school during the Second World War, it sadly burnt down in 1945 and was never rebuilt. Now, the park is sometimes open to the public, with its grand lakes and sweeping vistas. The Devonshire Heartland Way traverses the southern section all year round.

This immensely impressive church dominates Crediton and is an icon of the town. The church dates back over 1,000 years although much of what you see was added in later centuries. Its official name is the Collegiate Church of the Holy Cross and the Mother of Him Who Hung Thereon.

Lying just to the north of the hamlet, Posbury Clump is a wooded Iron Age hillfort. The hamlet itself has its origins in ancient history too and once formed part of an estate. There was also a convent here up until 2019, in a beautiful property which was subsequently sold. St Luke's church lies in Posbury and has lovely views of the undulating countryside.
