Introduction
Gateway to Cornwall and West Devon mining World Heritage sites.
Straddling the fast flowing river Tavy below the Western edge of Dartmoor, Tavistock stands in the heart of an area of tremendous natural beauty. It is a classic West Country Market Town, with a population of 11,000 and a shoppers delight. Whatever your fancy - old books, bold cooks, the art scene or smart jeans - there is enormous variety and choice.
