This enchanting woodland on the slopes of Fire Beacon Hill is filled with gnarled trees and twisted branches creating a mystical atmosphere.

Worth a stop. Lovely Americano.

Loose and fun gravel to be had a must of you are in the area and on the EDT

Nice gravel, and gorgeous views!

Fire Beacon Hill is a local nature reserve and on a clear day the views are superb. You can see the south coast all the way along Lyme Bay in Dorset to the east and Berry Head near Brixham in the south west. A beacon was located up here in Elizabethan times to warn the Queen of a Spanish invasion. It is a special place for nature watching with the Nightjar, Dartford Warbler, Exmoor ponies and Belted Galloway cattle all resident. It is also an important area of lowland heath, a previously common land type but now much rarer due to agriculture and forestry taking over.

A lovely place for a family cycle, challenging in some parts for small children and the uphill is in places brutal, but you can push.

Located on Cycle Route 52. Very nice tea room and garden. Very friendly.

The footpath southwards is closed at this point due to river erosion - there is no practical alternative as the surrounding fields are signed as "Private - no admittance"
