It’s my second morning in the South Hams region of Devon, located between Torbay and Plymouth and bordering the Dartmoor National Park to the north.
It’s an area with a strong rural and maritime heritage, where sandy beaches rub up against rich coastal grasslands. And it’s so pretty, it’s a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
Naturally beautiful it may be, but exploring on two wheels has largely lacked appeal to the average South Devon visitor, due to the relentless and often steep hills. Thankfully, e-Xplore Devon (e-xploredevon.co.uk; from £50 per bike per day) have made cycling here more accessible (and a great choice during the summer, when car parks are full and the roads are gridlocked).
Me & My Team: Salcombe Brewery Salcombe Brewery has weathered the pandemic, has almost completed a £1m site and is poised to roll out a new canned pilsner this summer, head brewer Sam Beaman tells Food Manufacture.
I have always been interested in real ale, which I guess comes from my first real job: The Bridge Inn in Topsham. I worked there from when I was about 17. They always had six or eight cask beers from local breweries, so I got to learn a bit about beer.
I went to university in Exeter - a geography degree and continued to work there [The Bridge Inn], then went to work in wine mostly from the sales side, but learned how different wines were made and how that influenced flavour.
