Dartington in South Devon on a great bend of the river Dart is situated not far from Totnes along the main road from Buckfastly. Although the famous Dartington glass can be purchased in its shops, visitors are surprised to learn it is actually manufactured in Great Torrington in the North of the county. The gardens of the 14th Century Dartington Hall at Totnes are well worth a visit. Features include grass terraces, woodland walks, wild flower meadows and a landscaped Japanese garden providing a quiet and tranquil spot for contemplation. Sculptures to be seen include granite swans, a brass donkey and a new modern piece by internationally recognised artist, Peter Randall-Page. The Dartington Cider Press Centre is a complex of shops, restaurants and traditional workshops including jewellery making and wood turning. The Centre is open 7 days a week all year round, with free parking, disabled access and picnic areas on-site. One of Devon’s top tourist attractions, the Centre prides itself on the unique village atmosphere in which it is run. The church of St. Mary was completed in 1880 and is considered a fine example of Victorian building, spacious and light with lofty Beer stone arcades and clear glass.
