Welcome to the South Devon Branch of CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale
About Us:
CAMRA is considered one of the most successful consumer campaigns ever. Our aim is to have good quality real ale, ciders and perries and to have thriving pubs and clubs in every community. We are independent, not-for-profit and non-party political.
Our branch covers an area from Chagford and Moretonhampstead in the north, through Holne and South Brent in the west, down to Thurlestone and Salcombe in the south and then following the coastline past Dartmouth and Kingswear, onto Torbay and as far as Teignmouth.
