Exmoor is stunning. It's a national park and an area of outstanding national beauty. We're 6 miles from the nearest town, so deep in the countryside, however, most supermarkets deliver here. The North Devon coast is popular with surfers and we are not far from the River Exe and River Barle, which are both popular for kayaking. Dulverton, and Exmoor in general have amazing gastro pubs and teashops. There is a chance that guests may sight, buzzards, red deer and Exmoor ponies. This is a great countryside for walking, biking, riding and wildlife lovers. Signal can be intermittent with certain networks.
