Fur Tor, Devon

Located in Lydford, Devon, South West England, England
Arguably the most remote area in southern England*
In the north west section of Dartmoor National Park, Fur Tor offers some amazing views of the high moors. To the north, you'll see Yes Tor and High Willhays. To the north west and west are Great Links Tor, Hare Tor and the gorgeous Tavy Cleave
Clearly, given its remote location, it's a big yomp to get to the tor. We've walked in from Postbridge and Lane End near Mary Tavy, from Chagford and Okehampton Camp. There's a nice route up from Princetown as well
*Members of the team at PictureTheUK used to live at Woodborough on the fringe of Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire. There are some pretty remote areas there, too. If you have any other suggestions as to the most remote spot in southern England then we'd love to hear them. Please email info@picturetheuk.com
