Path from castle to brook is one way only with cycle - downhill!

The castle has an excellent cafe, and small lake on the john Musgrave trail where there are waterfowl. The castle has a haunting atmosphere and you can learn all about the Pomeroy family's residence there

Beautiful gardens all year round and not far from the river Dart.

Compton Castle is a fortified manor house with a beautiful formal garden. The castle is over 600 years old. Managed by the National Trust it's paid entry for non-members.

A 15th century castle is a ruined and apparently haunted castle in the woods east of Totnes. English Heritage manage it and there is an entrance fee for non-members. It's worth a look around if you have the time. Otherwise, you can get a good glimpse of the castle from the footpaths that run around the area.

High up in Hembury Woods is Hembury Castle. Not just an Iron Age Hillfort but also a Norman Motte and Bailey Castle which was built into the fort. It is known locally as Danes Camp, perhaps due to a legendary viking invasion. The Danes sailed up the River Dart and attacked the hillfort, capturing both the fort and the women who lived there. When the vikings fell into a slumber, they were killed by the women and the danes ousted. It is a great place to visit with children to combine history with nature. There is plenty of carparking at Hembury Woods and short walks up to the castle or longer tracing the River Dart.

Cool historic spot on Dartmoor.

It is definitely worth having a stroll around these ancient ruins. While perhaps less impressive than nearby Grimspound, they are less well-known and, therefore, less busy. Today Challacombe is well known for the farm's rewilding efforts.
