Morwellham Quay Tavistock
I took my daughter and mother, only 20 minutes drive from Two Bridges, we had a lovely walk dressed up in Victoran costumes. I had no idea it used to be Englands busiest port and more recently was a BBC seried The Edwardian Farm. Can reccomend their pub The Ship Inn for lunch.
