Exmoor near Tiverton in Devon

Brambles Bed and Breakfast is 20.8 miles from Exmoor National Park. Exmoor is a remarkable blend of coast and country, with stunning landscapes of the highest quality. Coastline, internationally rare heather moorland, deep valleys clothed in ancient woodland, delightful villages.....Exmoor has it all. Designated as a National Park in 1954, Exmoor has a spectacular coastline stretching for 54 kms (34 miles), from Combe Martin to Minehead. It is England's highest coastline with hills mostly in the unusual 'hog's back shape', with low cliffs and gentle upper slopes. The sheltered cliffs support England's longest stretch of coastal woodland, where sessile oak, yew and rare whitebeams grow, and provide safe nesting sites for sea and heathland birds. This refreshing, relaxing 'great outdoors' is a natural choice for all kinds of holidays and short breaks - whether you wish to take a tranquil break away from it all or be more active. This is wonderful walking country, with options for a gentle stroll by a river, or a more demanding walk across open moorland or along the South West Coast Path. Or perhaps cycling or horse riding may appeal - with over 1000kms of footpaths and bridleways there is plenty of scope. This special landscape supports wonderfully diverse wildlife and with 80 resident species of bird, bats, badgers and over 1000 different flowering plants and grasses there is always something new to see. Of course there are also the Red deer and the Exmoor pony, an ancient and rare breed. Both roam wild across the moors. Its amazing scenic variety combined with being a comfortable size, really does set Exmoor apart. Explore Exmoor - you won't be disappointed!
