Hameldown Tor (529m) to the East overlooks Warren House Inn. I've run to
the summit many times from Bovey Castle when I have stayed there.


You must be super fit!

Unfortunately when I went to the pub there was a coach load of Norwegian
tourists there so there was barely even standing room.


Yes it's a lovely spot in summer. Sit outside the pub viewing the Dartmoor
panorama. The Hameldown ridge is a superb walk, done it many times in all
weathers.
