Spitchwick: Ideal location
Living in the South West definitely has its advantages, one of these is quick access to Dartmoor National Park.
The moors are rather breath-taking especially if you are from a city, running the rat race every day. The location I visited recently was Spitchwick (Map>). Running along the River Dart it beautifully opens out into a nice grassy area, ideal for picnics/BBQ’s (Not sure if it is legal to have a BBQ) and small sporting events. The river bends around a corner at this spot leaving a very deep area to dive into from nearby rocks (I’m not that brave!!). When I visited (Tuesday and Wednesday night) I just took pictures!!

Recommended area to visit, but it gets very busy in the summer. It’s quite nice in a full moon, but don’t go alone, it’s a long walk to anywhere if you break down!!
