Penstave Copse

Penstave Copse is located on the southern edge of Dartmoor within the upper reaches of the Avon Valley to the North of the town of South Brent and the nearby hamlet of Aish. The site is enjoyed by many local people as it is close to South Brent and connected to the Town by a public footpath. On acquisition, in partnership with Dartmoor National Park Authority, a short permissive link was negotiated with a neighbouring landowner. A circular walk is now provided and encounters all aspects of the site. There are fine views towards Dartmoor and the nearby Brent Hill and there is appropriate car parking for two cars by one of the entrances in a lay-by.
