The Neighborhood:

Gallery Lodge Nestled amongst the hills on the NE side of Dartmoor with easy access to the A30, Chagford boasts a microclimate which gives it more sunshine and drier weather than the western side of the moor.



The small town circles around its octagonal Market House fondly called the Pepperpot, and in short walking distance you will discover many fine old granite buildings, the beautiful church of St Michael and a wealth of unusual independent shops and art galleries.



You will be spoilt for choice for eating with most places using local and organic food; there are boutique hotels, much loved local pubs and inns, several tearooms, cafes and a wonderful delicatessen.



For walkers and nature lovers there are miles of open moorland to explore with its stone rows and circles, clapper bridges and ancient dwellings etc, or for a contrast the beautiful River Teign which meanders around the village and on through the Teign Gorge overlooked by Castle Drogo owned by the National Trust and on to the beauty spot of Fingle Bridge. There is also the tranquillity of Fernworthy reservoir.



For those seeking peace and quiet and an escape from the hustle and bustle or a quieter pace of life Chagford is ideal, but it also has plenty going on with its famous festivals such as the Chagstock music festival, Chagford Film Festival and Chagword Literary Festival. It even boasts a wonderful heated open air swimming pool fed by the River Teign.



Chagford is often called the friendliest place on Dartmoor. So do come along and see for yourself, you may never want to leave!





Outside of Chagford and just 35mins away sits Devons Capital , Exeter.



Exeter Cathedral green. Soak in the historic architecture of our beautiful Cathedral (a must see)

Exeter High st which holds all the major shopping brands and malls (Princess Hay and Guildhall).

The high st also hosts lots of Exeter's most popular bars and nightclubs (Timepiece,The Terrace,Unit 1, The Vaults)

Gandy st (just off the high st) provides more niche and funky theme bars plus the legendary Cavern club for Live music acts. This club has been a well-loved venue in the city since 1991. Known for hosting bands like The 1975 to solo artists like George Ezra to name but a few.

Exeter's historic Quay which offers a range of contemporary cafes, bars, restaurants, pizzerias and local shops. Enjoy all these whilst watching the beautiful swans and ducks play in the River Exe.

The Quay also has an indoor climbing centre for the more adventurous and also the opportunity to hire a Kayak or canoe at Saddles & Paddles. This is great fun. You can paddle down river to the famous double locks pub, moor up and pop in for lunch or a drink then paddle back. This is a great afternoon out on the river.
