Unbelievably, this will be our 10th annual beer festival and it gets bigger and better every year.
This year we've got 22 real ales on offer (as well as a couple of ciders and a ginger beer), a fantastic line-up of live music all day and of course some tasty hot and cold food to soak it all up. Yeoford is on the Exeter-Barnstaple train line ((only 20 mins from St. David's), so there's no need for anyone to drive and everyone can join in the fun.

An eclectic mix of entertainment is split across 6 stages, whilst an array of bars and food stalls sell irresistible local produce from around the Westcountry.
The globally acclaimed part indie, part punk New York band We Are Scientists will joint headline on the Saturday night - bringing their...
