    A lovely room - more like a small apartment - in a perfect location in a quiet Exmoor village. We had a warm and friendly welcome from Mop, a very comfy bed, and a spotlessly clean room and bathroom, along with an excellent cooked breakfast!

Withypool is one of the prettiest villages in Exmoor and is in the Golden Triangle. I just love the peace a tranquility of the area with all the wildlife including the wonderful Exmoor ponies that surrounds the village. The river Barle that flows through the village boasts one of the best walks on Exmoor to Tarr Steps and Landacre bridge and is a lovely spot to sit on the riverbank. There is no noise pollution here or light pollution and the sky at night is one of the best in Europe being one of the first international Dark Sky Reserve. Come rain or shine there is no place I rather be
Withypool is in the heart of Exmoor National Park with beautiful scenery of the moor and the river Barle. Exmoor ponies, red deer and an abundance of wildlife in the surrounding area. It’s on the Two Moors Way walking route for those who want a stopover. There is a pub, tea room and village shop within a few minutes walk. There is walking straight from the property either across the moor or along the river and many walking routes all across Exmoor. It’s a good base for exploring the area and in easy reach of the Spectacular north coast with boasts the highest cliffs in England. The beaches of Ilfracombe or Coombe Martin are within an hours drive. The local shopping place is Dulverton nearby with shops tea rooms while the superstores are in Barnstable.
