Grimspound

Widecombe in the Moor
No reviews yet
WAGFINDER No photo yet · the business adds these when they claim

A Bronze Age settlement of two dozen hut circles inside a stone enclosure wall, high on the moor between Widecombe and Postbridge. English Heritage lists it as dog friendly and there is no gate or ticket, but the whole approach is grazed common land, which is the honest caveat on all of central Dartmoor.

THE SMALL PRINTOpen grazed moorland with sheep, cattle and ponies. English Heritage asks that dogs are kept on a lead around livestock.

House rules, decoded

Livestock — leads on

More from the owner

Photos, a sample menu and prices, any room details and the venue’s own house rules will appear here once the business claims this listing. Until then, what you see above is what we’ve checked and verified ourselves.

Is this your attraction?

Claiming lets you add all of that and reply to reviews in your own name, right underneath them. £12.99 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.

Pub DOGS WELCOME

The Old Inn

TQ13 7TA
No reviews yet

The big fourteenth-century inn beside the church in Widecombe, geared to walkers coming off the moor. The house line is that they are very doggy friendly and always have a treat waiting, and the walled garden takes the overflow on a summer Sunday.

Nobody has written one for Grimspound. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.

Read by a human before it appears. We never publish your email, and the business can reply underneath but can never take a review down.
