The village is home to a lovely Norman church, a CAMRA recommended 14th Century pub serving real ales and fine wines and a local shop, whilst the surrounding countryside offers many great walking and cycling opportunities.

The enchanting Exmoor National Park, with its rolling hills, wooded valleys, wild deer and pretty villages like Combe Martin, Lynmouth and Simonsbath enchants all who visit, whilst the wildlife and remote natural beauty leading from the high moor down to the sea attracts visitors from far and wide. With Barnstaple also just a short drive away, this fantastic location has plenty to offer all year round!

The propery was perfect for us. However, when other guests were leaving we felt like we were in a goldfish bowl. We were sat on the sofa and guests were looking in saying hello. Maybe a rearrangment of the entance to the other houses (lower down) could rectify this. Otherwise the accomdation was comfortable, clean and suited our needs.
