The pretty village of Stoke Gabriel has lots of choice when it comes to walks. At low tide enjoy a leisurely stroll along the shoreline to Duncannon beach or maybe cross over to the woodland towards Dittisham. A Footpath can even take you to the bustling town of Totnes, a great walk for both you and your dog.
