A snug, low-beamed local in the village of Buckland Monachorum on Dartmoor’s western edge, the Drake Manor Inn keeps three small rooms warm with wood-burners, local ales and honest cooking; the name recalls the Buckland Abbey estate once owned by Sir Francis Drake. Call in after a look round Buckland Abbey itself, or the terraced plantings of The Garden House just up the lane.
