Tavistock: Historic stannary town on the edge of Dartmoor. We're about ~1 hour 30 minutes from our Redruth kitchen and cover Tavistock regularly. Tavistock's position on the edge of Dartmoor National Park makes it a popular choice for rural weddings and outdoor events in dramatic moorland settings.
Popular events around Tavistock include Dartmoor weddings, market events, and country house parties. We cover Tavistock and the area around Tavistock Pannier Market, Dartmoor National Park, and Tavistock Abbey.
Feeding units in remote Dartmoor locations
Moorland shoots are logistically demanding, little infrastructure, and often a long way from the nearest town. We travel fully self-sufficient with our own kitchen, power and serving setup, and get consistent hot food to the unit on time regardless of the location. Allergen and dietary lists are tracked across the full crew, and we’re used to confidential locations and tight schedules.
We cover Tavistock, Dartmoor National Park and the wider West Devon and Cornwall filming regions. Day rates are quoted per shoot day against your call sheet, get in touch with your dates and crew numbers.
