The Cider Press Centre

On the edge of the Dartington Hall estate, a dozen stores in and around an old cider press make up the Cider Press Centre. Open daily, it's a great place to find handmade Dartington crystal glassware, kitchenware, crafts, books, and toys. The Food Shop and the connected deli counter sell local food and drink, including Sharpham cheese and wine, fudge, ice cream, and Devon cider while a café/restaurant, Bayards Kitchen, has an excellent selection of organic, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and meat dishes. The Centre also has a branch in Totnes proper, offering a small selection of Dartington craft items and a greater stock of books.
