Local attractions: Enjoy a walk over the farm to join the coastal path with its spectacular cliffs and abundant Exmoor wildlife, or stroll down to the river and watch the otters in the valley and continue along the path to Watersmeet and Lynton.
Instead you can take a short drive to enjoy the Somerset village of Porlock and it’s delightfully small harbour, or extend the trip to include some of the Devon coastal sites of Lynton, Lynmouth, Woolacombe, Croyde and the magnificent beach of Saunton Sands.
Alternatively travel inland to take advantage of the wonders of the Exmoor National Park. Visit the sites of Tarr steps the well known clapper bridge over the river Barle, the historic town of Dunster and the castle, Dulverton, with its variety of individual shops, Exford, the centre of the moor, and closer to home Dunkery Beakon, the highest place on the moor, and the romantic Lorna Doone country, Oare, and Malmsmead.
