Sharrah Pool – a 50m channel of crystal clear water flanked on either side by large smooth sunbathing rocks. You also enjoy a walk through ancient woodland to reach this secluded swimming area.

Walking – although it is a lovely walk, it is quiet difficult if you are not experienced at navigating on the moor, so more suited to experienced walkers.

 

Hexworthy Bridge – a nice shallow pool for children to paddle and there is also lots of fish to be seen!

Driving – go over the bridge at the bottom of the road; turn left at the T- junction. Follow signs for Hexworthy or Princetown. You will go over the bridge and see the pool on your left.
