The Ring of Bells Inn, a 13th-century Dartmoor longhouse, sits inside North Bovey, a picture-book village specialising in all things cute, which means rows of thatched houses, a medieval church, a couple of castles (Bovey Castle is surprisingly dog-friendly) and even a Miniature Pony Centre. Inside the wood-beamed bar, you’ll find locals alongside guests (expect a few sheepdogs on any given day, given the large farming community); pick a place by the snug inglenook fireplace and order a West Country ale or gin. Rooms have the same period features with tartan-clad springy double beds and beamed ceilings.

With a thatched roof, whitewashed exterior and overflowing flower beds, the 13th-century Ring of Bells Inn is a welcome sight when you’ve been hiking through the rugged wilds of Dartmoor National Park.

Most rooms have a bath if you fancy an evening soak, and when it’s time for grub, head downstairs for hearty pub fare and West Country real ale next to the toasty log burner.
