Escape to secluded tranquillity deep within Exmoor’s National Park. This delightful stone barn has been beautifully renovated to capture the charming features whilst giving it a modern touch. Whatever the season, we’re sure you’ll find joy, whether it’s collecting logs from the store to put onto the log burner, or in the warmer months setting up for an al fresco breakfast on the pretty outside decking. Perfectly positioned in a cosy hillside spot between the moors and the sea, this quintessential location is ideal for those who love to explore. Meander just a mile away from the barn and you’ll reach the charming riverside village of Rockford. Take a fifteen-minute drive to the famous Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway for sensational views over the rugged coastline. Or choose a different footpath each day to uncover yet another beauty spot that this area seems to have in abundance. Return to your rural retreat to cosy up under the original beams and let yourself drift away to the sounds of the crackling fire and enveloping countryside.

About Exmoor
Straddling Devon and Somerset, Exmoor might be one of the UK’s smaller national parks, but you’d never know it when you’re there. Exmoor’s 700 square kilometres take in endless moors clad in a purple sea of soft heather, babbling rivers, and sheer cliffs that drop into the clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
