Dartmoor attractions - what to see and where to go.

Dartmoor itself is the only attraction a lot of people come to see, and there certainly are plenty of natural, free places in the area to keep most people happy for their whole stay !

But it's also good to visit special places that you may not get the chance to see anywhere else in the world, such as the Prison Museum . Or how about having a look around the very last castle to be built in this country, Castle Drogo?
