Lorna Doone? by David Cross

A bit of confusion here – the lovely Lorna is associated with EXMOOR.

I live here! by charlottiedotty

I live actually on Dartmoor and its amazing. Wild ponies on your doorstep, wildlife to die for and of course the most amazing Devonshire cream teas!

One more pic here. I love the old old stone walls and bridges in this area. Some of the stone circles date back to the Stone Age, and there are remnants of the tin mining that used to happen everywhere. The history of this area is so remarkable, and I feel the place is so unchanged, as if somehow I’m seeing it as it would have been many hundreds of years ago. I remember my Dad telling me that when he didn’t get into medical school he went walking here to clear his head. I’ve done the same thing when I’m feeling shitty and it never fails to help me to see past the inconsequential and see the quiet beauty I sometimes fail to notice. xxx

I’m posting this for Scribbles, he wanted to see some pics! We went hiking yesterday and we had a fab time, it’s so rugged and starkly beautiful here. My relatives still farm here and it’s great to see how people live in real harmony with the land and each other. Plus the Dartmoor ponies – small, real thick coats, and lots of spirit – are so so adorable.

We did about 10 miles and I enjoyed every minute. This was taken near Bellever. xxx

An Amazing Place! by Sarah

Make sure you are prepared for all weather conditions though. Good boots, waterprof clothing, snacks to keep you going if lost or worse.

Don’t forget to check the military practise times too so you don’t walk into the middle of a firing range!
