Lowertown Farm is in a small peaceful hamlet two miles from Widecombe in the Moor, close to the River Dart.
It is a fantastic base for walkers, cyclists, horse riders, climbers and kayakers (Nov-March).
Also we're only a 20 minute walk to the good quality local pub.
Local events include Widecombe Fair, National Park guided walks, Pantomines and the farmers market.
We use local produce when possible for our full English breakfasts including eggs from our chickens in the garden.
Guests have their own large sitting room with a sustainable log burner - heating the B&B rooms above and using wood direct from our farm.
Bring your horse on holiday and enjoy fabulous riding on Dartmoor.
Whether you are interested in the fantastic views or in the fast gallops in the area, you and your horse will enjoy a stay at Lowertown Farm.
For those that don't have their own horses there are plenty of good riding stables in the area.
