| Events in Ugborough | 10 Places to Stay

Ugborough is an attractive village in the picturesque South Hams in Devon, home to over seventeen hundred people. There’s a Norman church, with an impressive tower, and a large square that was the Market Place in centuries past. There’s oodles of delights nearby such as Dendles Wood Nature Reserve, where wildlife and woodland beauty is the order of the day. Or perhaps Dartmoor Zoological Park will be favourite as it’s home to two hundred animals. For animals of a different kind why not take a trip to Buckfast Butterfly and Otter Sanctuary where Mother Nature’s brush has been busy, if that’s not enough take a close look at the Otters whose charm will win hearts time over. For a link with the past a tour around Buckfast Abbey will give a fascinating insight into the lives of the Benedictine Monks. Museum lovers will enjoy the interesting exhibits at Cookworthy Museum from farm equipment, to a 17th Century Schoolroom, and for those who yearn for adventure there’s Sorely Tunnel Adventure Farm where visitors can bounce on trampolines, or see cows being milked. Or why not ensure that it is not just a brief encounter when you climb aboard a fabulous Steam Locomotive at South Devon Railway.
