High above the ancient woodlands of the Teign Gorge stands Castle Drogo. Inspired by the rugged Dartmoor tors that surround it, the castle was designed and built by renowned 20th-century architect Sir Edwin Lutyens.
Outside the Lutyens designed garden is colourful in all seasons, and there are miles of pathways to explore in the Teign Gorge.
Once you’ve explored the Castle and Gardens, come and fill up in the Castle Drogo café, with a selection of hot and cold drinks, light lunches and snacks.
Dogs on leads are welcome, with the exception of the cafe and castle. Assistance dogs are welcome in all areas of the property.
