Exmoor National Park (centre)
Exmoor extends from this point over an area of nearly 270 square miles. Easily as beautiful as her sister, Dartmoor, Exmoor offers endless ways to strike out into the wilderness and relish the great outdoors for a day or a week. Explore Exmoor walking, riding or cycling, even travelling by four wheel drive - you can set whatever pace you like through the valleys, hills, streams and moorland. Come in autumn and see the moors set alight with the colour of turning leaves; come in early spring, and witness Snowdrop Valley, when the carpet of white blooms heralds the end of winter. It's always a good time to visit.

Lynmouth
Described by the painter Thomas Gainsborough as 'the most delightful place for a landscape painter this country can boast', Lynmouth lies on the north Devon cliffs, between Exmoor National Park and the sea. It sits 500 feet directly below its sister village, Lynton. The two are joined by a unique water-powered funicular cliff railway. This part of Devon is rich in natural beauty; the coastline here is glorious, while inland Exmoor's valleys, rivers, waterfalls and hills create an inspiring, wild landscape.
