Parks & Nature
Beautiful scenery overlooking Plymouth and drakes island. You can do a range of things. Like pinics, feeding the ducks, or go for a leisurely walk. Here they have a pub next to the park or why not have an afternoon tea in the summer house. You can walk through all the history of the old historic Manor House and the beautiful gardens that go with it. They have a few cafes near the old stables too. Perfect day out.

This is one of my favourite walks. It’s completely flat and you can park up and walk all the way round this reservoir. It is for everyone, I especially like to walk my dog around here. I see lots of cyclists, runners and people just walking taking in the beautiful scenery. In nice weather it is nice to find a nice spot for a picnic too. Definitely one to visit. It is a good 5/6miles but is completely flat. One of my favourite places.
There is a lovely pub a stones throw away which do lovely pub grub and is cosy in the winter sitting by the fire with a hot chocolate. It’s called ”The Burrator Inn” and is listed in my recommended food section in this guide.
