On walking routes: Dunsford to Moretonhampstead Trail
Our range of cask ales includes Dartmoor Jail Ale and we usually keep 3 other changing guest ales from a mix of local & national brewers. Apart from our ales, we're known for our Cider & Scrumpy Bar with real ciders to choose from in addition to Thatchers' Gold & Sandford Orchards Devon Red Sparkling. If you prefer spirits, see our original Gin Shelf with a range of local South West Gins.
"High above the valley floor, there are panoramic views of the surrounding hills from the pubs' gardens. With its stone walls, beamed ceilings and inglenook fireplace, this is a gem of a pub, they serve good ales, food and traditional cider from various Devon and Somerset producers. There are three hand-pumps on the bar that are usually fully employed. There is always something on at the Bridford." (content What Pub)

“The only convict who really got away from Princetown and was not recaptured was last seen taking a bee-line for Fox Tor Mire.”
