Leave the A38 Devon Expressway at the Dartbridge junction, seeing signs for Dartmouth and Totnes and big brown signs for Butterfly Farm, Railway and Buckfast Abbey. Follow signs for Buckfast Abbey. With the Abbey entrance on your right, go up the hill and turn right at the top, following signs for Scoriton/Holne and Tradesman`s Arms. After 2 miles in the lanes, only turn left when you see the big green sign for the Tradesman`s Arms.
On entering the village see notice board and letter box on your left and a row of white cottages ahead. Turn left up the lane in front of the cottages which leads up onto the moor and appears to be a no through road and we are 50 yards on the left. Drive in through the gates and park in the area to your left.
If you pass the pub, you have gone too far.... That comes later !!
Farther afield 2/3 hours and well worth a day trip:
