Hidden Gems

Devon’s landscape holds a variety of secluded architectural and natural landmarks. Buckfast Abbey remains an active Benedictine monastery, while Buckland Abbey is a Grade I listed house with 700-year-old Cistercian origins. In Exeter, a 14th-century timber-framed building known as "The House That Moved" stands as a feat of 20th-century engineering. On Dartmoor, the legendary Crazywell Pool offers a deep, natural landmark, while the independent Totnes Cinema provides a unique cultural space within a restored historic hall.
