Withypool (.3 miles)
In the midst of rolling moorland, Withypool is a classic Exmoor village of unspoilt architecture; it has a lovely six-arch bridge over the Barle River.

The Royal Oak Inn (.3 miles)
A cosy pub restaurant serving good local meat and fish dishes.

Tarr Steps (2.5 miles)
The Barle River rushes through Tarr Steps all winter, slowing to a trickle during the summer. The bridge is a medieval clapper bridge, perhaps one of the most photographed in the world. It’s a lovely spot for a picnic.

Tarr Farm Inn (2.8 miles)
In a glorious position next to the River Barle, Tarr Farm does great lunches, cream teas and bistro-style dinners.

Liscombe Farm and Riding Stables (2.9 miles)
Treks along the Barle River from Tarr Steps.

Dunkery Beacon (4.2 miles)
An open moorland walk to the top of Dunkery Beacon. Drive up onto Exmoor from Wheddon Cross and park at Dunkery Gate just as you get on National Trust land. Then choose your own long or short route to the top of the Beacon where you will get a view over Porlock and across the Bristol Channel to Wales.
