Location
The village of Brompton Regis is a small, rural village in a quiet location on the eastern side of Exmoor National Park. It was once a market ‘town’ and one of the largest in the area, divided into Highertown and Lowertown. The parish extends from the Haddeo Valley up to the ridge of the Brendon Hills. It includes Wimbleball Lake and nature reserve, which offers all kinds of water-based activities and walks.

Dulverton is approx 5 miles away and is known as the southern gateway to Exmoor. It's a pretty, small town with a butcher, Post Office, fish and chip shop, greengrocer, late-opening supermarket, art gallery, hairdressers, book shop and antique dealers as well as a guns and fishing tackle shop. There are also a number of quality boutiques, interesting gift shops plus a handful of lovely restaurants, tea rooms and pubs.

Wheddon Cross is around 6 miles away, and has a mini-supermarket with long opening hours, a petrol station and a village pub too. Dunkery Beacon (1704 feet above sea level) is about three miles further on from the village, there are fantastic panoramic views from Dunkery; wild moorland to the west, the Bristol Channel and Wales to the north, the rolling Brendon Hills to the east and the Quarme Valley to the south. In recent years Wheddon Cross has become famous for the abundance of snowdrops in the nearby valley which has become known as 'Snowdrop Valley'. The snowdrops bloom around February and a park and ride system operates from the village to enable visitors easy access to the "carpet of snowdrops".

The coastal town of Minehead is 13 miles away with its variety of shops along with the main station for the iconic West Somerset Steam Railway running 20 miles through stunning coastal and countryside to Bishop Lydeard near Taunton.
