If you like shopping then Newton Abbot will be worth a visit during your time in Dartmoor; it holds a popular outdoor market on Wednesdays and Saturdays, an indoor pannier market Monday to Saturday and a weekly produce market every Friday. The town’s also home to a wide variety of great shops. Trago Mills Shopping and Leisure Park is also nearby.

If you like horses, Newton Abbot Racecourse holds meetings throughout the summer months, while if you want to get outside, Decoy Country Park, Courtenay Park, Bakers Park and the nearby Stover Country Park are all fabulous outdoor spaces worth visiting.
