The Stables at Birch Cleave, Simonsbath is a lovely stone cottage. It was clean and well decorated with comfortable beds and a lovely little spot outside to sit at the picnic table for meals etc. We found the location to be nice and peaceful and went for several walks in the area. Pip the owner has done a great job having the Stable renovated to a high standard. It was a wonderful place to escape to and we would love to book it again in the future.

Fantastic location, with footpaths and bridleways just outside the door and a beautiful cottage, which was very light, clean and delightfully presented. The Exmoor Forest Inn, just across the road, served delicious food and everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to come back and stay again. Thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Chris

Exmoor National Park spreads across both West Somerset and North Devon. Often referred to as England's best kept secret, Exmoor is a wonderful holiday destination for anyone looking for a holiday in the great outdoors! There's so much to see and do, from short walks to long expeditions across the moors, wooded valleys or coastal paths. As well as horse riding, taking in a safari or sight-seeing at your own pace around the 'picture postcard' villages and hamlets.

There are plenty of interesting places to visit during your stay including Tarr Steps near Winsford, the popular country towns of Dulverton and South Molton, West Somerset Steam Railway, National Trust properties including Dunster Castle, Arlington Court, Knightshayes and many more. The surfing beaches of North Devon are easily reached and the South West Coastal Path and Coleridge Way.

Birch Cleave Stable is ideally situated to take advantage of all country pursuits a step from the door, in addition the coast to the north is within easy reach and provides a wealth of water sports such as sailing and surfing.

Nearby is the historic market town of Dulverton, the southern gateway to Exmoor. There are lots to explore including antiques and galleries, cafes, pubs and restaurants.

Also worth a visit is Lynton and Lynmouth, the Victorians named these two villages ‘Little Switzerland’, they are situated at the mouth of the River Lyn. From Lynmouth you can access Lynton (the higher of the two villages) either via a Victorian water-powered cliff railway, a foot path, or in the car via the road. You will find traditional fisherman’s cottages, shops and cafes. Along the coast nearby you will find the magnificent rugged setting of the Valley of the Rocks.
