Exmoor National Park
50 min from The SedgesWild moorland, wooded river valleys and a dramatic coastline — one of England's most beautiful national parks.
Exmoor is a landscape of big skies and deep valleys, where wild ponies and red deer roam open moorland and clear rivers tumble through ancient oak woods. It is a paradise for walkers, cyclists and anyone who loves the outdoors.
Highlights
Cross the ancient clapper bridge at Tarr Steps, follow the East Lyn River down to the sea, or take in the views from Dunkery Beacon, the highest point in Somerset. As one of the country’s designated Dark Sky reserves, Exmoor is also a magical place to stargaze on a clear night.
The heart of the park is around a 50-minute drive from the fishery.
