The people of Exmoor can’t wait to give you a warm welcome!
Summer in Exmoor is truly a sight to behold. Strokes of rich, lush green paint everything from the beech hedges to the moors, and bursts of pink and purple cut through the greenery as the heather preens under the sun. Enjoy the beautiful views as you stroll along this stunning landscape or why not escape the heat with a delicious picnic on the beach? Just be sure to make your plans well in advance and in line with Government re-opening guidance. #VisitExmoorSafely
This three-day itinerary will showcase the many facets of Exmoor at its best:
Day 1
Start the first day of your Exmoor summer trip by soaking up the views from Lynton and strolling along the beautiful harbour at Lynmouth. Then head to the stunning Valley of Rocks to explore this incredible rock formation and take on a section of the stunning South West Coast Path. Be sure to watch out for the famous Lynton goats roaming around too!
Day 2
The second day is for meeting the wild ponies on the high moors of Porlock – and marvelling at the magnificent coastal views along the way. A delicious picnic lunch overlooking the tranquil sea at Porlock Weir will remind you of your childhood holidays, while a picturesque drive to the quaint village of Dunster will take you back to the Middle Ages.
Day 3
A day for meandering the blissfully uncrowded streets of Exmoor’s villages, then driving high up on the moors and over to the clapper bridge Tarr Steps for a picnic. Too warm after soaking up the sun? Take a dip in the river before making your way to Dulverton for a stroll around this pretty and friendly town.
