Nestled in the heart of Exmoor National Park, this home is just a short walk from the picturesque village of Exford. Perfect for a family, you’ll enjoy a relaxing stay here whatever the season. In winter, the wood burner is the ideal tonic after hiking the local trails, and the roll-top bath will be a hit with all. In summer, there’s a private garden and a three-acre paddock to enjoy. If you can tear yourself away, the village tea rooms and two traditional inns serve up all sorts of sustenance, while further afield, the coastal towns of Lynmouth, Porlock and Minehead are a short drive away.
