Local information
As well as 2 pubs, in the summer East Prawle has the Piglet Stores run by Viv and Chris Lally, for most of what you'll need, with Grunter's Cafe for delicious homemade cakes and snacks. This saves a lot of shopping time in Kingsbridge as they have plenty of fresh food including bread.

The beaches are very special and varied. Macely has wonderful sand, Moorsands is the most private, Horseley has the best flora and fauna, Mattiscombe the best rocks, Lannacombe the best surfing and rocks, Mill Bay is perfect for toddlers and small children while Gara makes an ideal beach to walk to and have a drink or a cream tea at the hotel.
