Pub Guide

National

Around 96% of the pubs in Britain are listed, with details, on the WhatPub website. All have been independently added and updated by thousands of CAMRA volunteers.

Micropubs are a recent development and are proving increasingly popular. A micropub is a small freehouse which listens to its customers, mainly serves cask ales, promotes conversation, shuns all forms of electronic entertainment and dabbles in traditional pub snacks. A website listing all micropubs can be found here.

Local

CAMRA's WhatPub website includes details of them all and it's updated and maintained, free of charge, by CAMRA members. The map below shows the location of each pub and club in our area.

      Researchers contend that a 9th-century Devon 'longhouse' existed on this site before a more modern re-build in the 13th century. Originally a farmhouse beside a stream, with its own well, it was only converted into a pub and restaurant in 1982, and is most probably the finest example of a 'longhouse' to a pub conversion in the South Devon area. The interior is on three separate levels, the lower level being the the main entrance foyer with the restaurant/function room and toilets with easy disabled access. The bar is accessed by 3 steps. This historic pub changed hands in August 2018.
