Luxury self-catering accommodation in Exmoor
Its ribbon of romantic coastline and lush green interior make Exmoor a county of contrasts, brimming with wildlife and year-round visitors.
Guests can take their pick of seaside towns and opt for walking the 37 miles of the coastal path or part of it. Edged with beaches and inlets along the way, plan your stops such as Lynmouth's rocky harbour, where a wooded valley meets the sea, to enjoy some much-deserved fresh fish and chips on the quay. Or ride the unique Victorian water-powered cliff railway, which still takes passengers up and down the coast. Minehead's beach also known as the 'The Strand', has rock-pools and a café for classic seaside days out.
Walking through the green miles that make up Exmoor National Park, patient visitors wait to spot some of the resident wildlife, all of whom make the most of the moorland, woodland, coast and streams. Red deer and Exmoor ponies quietly graze. Guided walks and trails are the best way to get an introduction to all the species that live within the National Park, or just lace up your boots and head out with a pair of strong binoculars to see what you might find.
