5Wistman’s Wood, Dartmoor

On the moorlands of Devon lies one of the most haunting landscapes in England—Wistman’s Wood. This ancient oak woodland, with gnarled moss-covered trees and granite boulders, feels like something from folklore.

Druids, ghosts, and mythical hounds are said to haunt the forest, giving it an eerie reputation. Whether you believe in the legends or not, wandering through its twisted, mossy pathways is an unforgettable experience, far removed from the bustle of tourist hotspots.
