| The Dartmoor National Park Information Centres within the borders of the park and the Tourist Information Centres in the towns around the edges, are all manned by wonderful people who really want to help visitors get the most out of their Dartmoor experience. You can contact them prior to your visit or simply make use of the facility once you are here. Whichever, the welath of knowledge and experience is fantastic and we make use of it often. |

"Every now and then I get an urge to go stomping around the Moors in inappropriate footwear, so i have to get on a plane and fly all the way to Postbridge - of course i will only stay at Andrew & Lorraine's!
We love you guys and we will see you both again soon. Thanks for another wonderful stay! "
