Dartmoor Walks & Experiences

Step Straight onto Dartmoor from Gidleigh Park

Gidleigh Park sits on the very edge of Dartmoor National Park near Chagford, Devon. Our grounds flow directly into riverside paths, ancient woodland and open moorland – the perfect base for walks of every length and difficulty. Whether you want a gentle riverside stroll or a challenging tor ascent, every route begins and ends at our door.

Our Favourite Dartmoor Walks

Choose from our curated selection: the gentle Teign Valley riverside path (30 mins), the climb to Kes Tor (2 hrs), or the full-day loop via Chagford village and the moor. Maps, packed lunches and walking notes are available from reception.

Dartmoor is reknowned for its granite tors, which are rocky outcrops dotting the landscape. Some other popular tors include Haytor, Hound Tor, and Great Staple Tor. These landmarks can provide excellent opportunities for photography and panoramic views.

Michelin Starred Dining

Return each day to roaring log fires, exceptional dining and luxurious rooms after exploring the wild beauty of Dartmoor. Combine your walks with a fine-dining evening or a restorative night’s stay – the perfect blend of adventure and comfort in Devon.

Make It a Dartmoor Break

Turn a single walk into a full Dartmoor escape. Our individually designed rooms and suites overlook the moor, and we offer special walking packages with picnic hampers and guided options throughout the year.

Whether you’re looking for a summer stay in the rolling Dartmoor hills with vast verandas, or a cosy winter retreat, Gidleigh Park may be one of the most memorable stays you enjoy.
