A world renowned pub in one of Devon's most breathtaking locations is one that'll be on people's radar this autumn.

The Dartmoor Inn at Merrivale, which earned recognition in Tripadvisor's Travellers' Choice Awards last year, is the perfect culinary escape as temperatures drop as things get cosy.

The honour celebrated establishments that regularly receive excellent reviews, positioning them within the top 10% of venues globally on Tripadvisor.

As the planet's biggest travel guidance platform, Tripadvisor holds unmatched credibility with holidaymakers and food enthusiasts.

The establishment reopened in 2024 following exciting transformations.

It was already renowned for serving organic premium steaks prepared on a distinctive Ox Grill before diners' eyes.

This custom has continued, though the menu has expanded to showcase fresh seafood landed by nearby fishermen.
