Misty days, festive cheer, and the possibility of snow make this the most magical season of all. Curl up in front of the fire and enjoy the warm atmosphere of our traditional pubs.
Enjoy the magical stars! Hartland, Black Torrington, and Sheepwash experience some of the darkest skies in the region, perfect for star gazing. Look up and experience thousands of stars with your naked eye.
Although it may seem like wildlife goes to ground in the winter, there is still a lot to see. Winter can bring some crisp and dry days- perfect for wrapping up warm and heading out for a walk with the crunch of frosty leaves under foot.
From the 'aglow' festival at Rosemoor to the Christmas lights in the towns of Bideford, Torrington, Clovelly and Holsworthy- there is plenty of sparkle to brighten the dark nights. Not forgetting the Christmas markets full of local produce and crafts.
If you head to Ash Moor you can hear the chatter of redwings and fieldfares as they search for food in the fields.
Snow drops will start to push through the frozen soil of the woodlands at the end of winter. Head to RHS Rosemoor for a spectacular white carpet of snow drops.
