Externally, the outdoor seating area has been transformed, with new decking, heating and lighting. The garden has been extended to accommodate 250 covers. 

Younger guests will find an all-new children’s play area has been added, to open from the 19^th August.

The pub is dog friendly, both inside and out, even offering a doggy menu for furry guests, including ice cream and biscuit snacks. 

General manager Sarah Atkinson said: “We’re so excited to welcome guests back to Widecombe Fair. Customers will be greeted by some old and new faces and we’re eager to show our regulars how we’ve ramped up our already fantastic family offering.

 “Our updated outdoor area is sure to be a hit with customers during the summer months. With our new grilled menu available, customers will be able to enjoy a fresh al fresco dining experience. It doesn’t matter if you’re after a quick drink in the sunshine, or a classic pub meal – we’ve got you covered.”
