Lovely Walk with views

This is a great walk especially for dogs to run free. Can be steep in places but these can be avoided if needed.
However it is further than the suggestion states and is nearer 12miles / 30min drive from Grasscott .

Through the woods and along the banks of the Torridge.

An old ruined mill covered in ivy, a pebbly beach by the side of the river to skim stones, and a trail up into the woods and along old, beaten paths through this nature reserve looked after by Devon Wildlife Trust makes this a perfect outing to observe our beautiful Devon countryside. Our walk took about two hours, perfect for a morning or afternoon stroll. There are hides ranged around the reserve from which to view the wildlife.
