Berry Pomeroy Castle (3.1 miles)
15th century Berry Pomeroy Castle is secreted away in a steep wooded valley. The ruin still displays a wall painting of the Three Kings in its gatehouse chamber. The great Elizabethan mansion of the Seymours was intended to become the most spectacular house in Devon, a match for Longleat and Audley End however it was abandoned by 1700 and subsequently became the subject of many a chilling ghost story, some of which can be heard in the audio tour. To get a good view of the ruin from below, take the woodland, although this can be steep in parts.
