A true delight. If you fancy breakfast at the beach, just a drink, lunch or a Devon cream tea, the Venus will not dissapoint. Situated on the beach at Blackpool Sands and just a short walk from the village. They are open every day from 8.30am- 5.00pm, providing a great selection of snacks, meals and local organic produce. There is evening dining with a separate menu from 5.00pm every Summer evening. I strongly recommend getting a loyalty discount card with your first meal as you may come back many times, especially beach lovers. A Take-away is also available next door during main season.

Children friendly with a menu and activity pack - they even give away t-shirts. For the hungry diner there is unlimited chips. A good selection of sides, salads and drinks are available too.

Sightseeing

Historic Dartmouth, St Petrox church and some stunning views. The castle is run by English Heritage, so members get in free. Parking is available on Castle Rd. Alternatively a small ferry boat runs from Dartmouth harbour for a charge - or you can take it from the castle to get into Dartmouth centre. I would strongly recommend the walk from the Castle into the town with the elevated position providing stunning views and some historic locations along the way. There is an adjacent tea room where you can get snacks and drinks - check opening times outside of main season.

Steeped in so much history, this is the ideal place to take the family crabbing. Buy a bucket, line and some bait from one of the may shops in Dartmouth, cast away and enjoy some old fashioned fun. This is best around high tides, so check online. The Mayflower left here before stopping at Plymouth and ultimately the new world. With its 16th century fort, it is very pretty and was location for some of the 1970s TV series - 'The Onedin Line'. With it's nearby shops, cafes and Inn, why not grab a drink or bite to eat at Bayards Cove Inn, brunch at Alf Resco or some fish 'n' chips at the nearby RockFish takeaway.
