Pay a visit to a Ruby Country market to sample the atmosphere and liberating atmosphere of a real rural tradition.
Along with the many shops and other places to buy local produce and arts and crafts, there are markets in Hatherleigh (every Tuesday) and Holsworthy (every Wednesday) when the two towns come alive with expectation.
Traditionally the markets have been meeting places for local farmers and their families and this remains the case. Holsworthy still has thriving livestock markets as well as well as its regular general auctions
