A PLACE WORTH KNOWING
A small detour for something sweet
Handmade Italian-style gelato, changing flavours and a little courtyard café behind a family-run shop.
Barzotelli brings a little Italian gelato ritual to North Tawton’s square. The family-run business makes its gelato with local dairy ingredients and offers a changing choice of flavours, alongside milkshakes, fruit lollies and hot drinks. The courtyard café gives a cone or a cup a place to become a proper pause rather than something eaten on the move. It is a small, cheerful stop to build into a wander through town, especially when you can take a seat outside. Look at the current flavours rather than setting your heart on a photograph, and check opening days before making the journey.
