About Exmoor & Country

Exmoor tourist information
  • Dramatic towering coastline
  • Great walking and riding
  • Unique towns and villages

Exmoor straddles the Devon and Somerset border along the Atlantic coast and contains one of the most dramatic stretches of coastline in the country. The South West Coast Path provides a challenging hike along the hogback cliffs, but the views across the water to the Welsh coast more than compensate for any burning thighs. The coast is not the only walking on offer. The moor itself is largely uninhabited and is riddled with footpaths and bridleways allowing visitors to explore the unique landscape.

Most visitors stay in one of the many towns and villages around the edge of the moor and can choose between small coastal resorts, such as Lynton and Lynmouth, enjoying precarious locations nestled along the cliffs, or quaint inland villages like Winsford, Dulverton or Exford.

Full Property Description

A beautiful period barn conversion that has been sympathetically converted to provide a tasteful and unique holiday home. Riverside has retained many original features and has high quality furniture, kitchens and bathrooms that are in keeping with the age of the property.

Original beamed, vaulted ceilings with galleried features create a light, airy and spacious feeling whilst ‘wood burning’ stoves in each cottage also make them an appealing rural retreat for cosy winter breaks.

All cottages have natural slate flagstones throughout ground floors while the upper floors all have solid oak flooring. All doors and window frames are attractive solid timber and many windows have deep window seats and most look out over fields and farmlands.

Under floor heating and hot water is provided by a ‘ground source heat pump’, an eco friendly “green” system. Waste water is cleansed and disposed of through a special water treatment plant.

The Park Mill Farm cottages are situated in a magical riverside setting with 20 acres of lush fields, woods and parkland where you are free to roam along with the abundant wildlife.

Fishing at Park Mill Farm

"This is an accommodating little river in a lovely Devon valley where time really does seem to stand still."
Mike Weaver, Trout And Salmon magazine, Feb. 2009.

There are two rivers (The Little Dart and The Huntacott) running through the property and a private fishing lake where guests can enjoy free fly and coarse fishing and catch Brown Trout, Sea Trout, Salmon and Carp!

River fishing requires a licence which can be obtained at any post office or via Angling 2000 who sell vouchers to guests allowing them to fish in any participating rivers. Click here to find out more and buy a licence.

Note: Riverside Cottage has a double connecting door opening into its neighbouring cottage, The Smithy, so that they may be booked together for larger groups. These doors will be securely locked if not requested.
