Looking towards the village from the far side of the river Barle. A lovely place to just sit and relax.
Pack a picnic and go for an Exmoor walk from Landacre to Simonsbath. Magical moorland wherever you look and a good area to spot Exmoor ponies and red deer.
A stocky Exmoor stallion stands guard over his mare and foal. You could be lucky enough to spot this ancient breed from almost any point of Exmoor.
There are several thousand Red Deer on Exmoor - Britain's largest land mammal - but you've still got to keep your eyes peeled to find one!
Exmoor is magical, whatever the weather. A january frost on the road to Anstey ridge can be as beautiful as a sunny afternoon at Tarr Steps.
The very pretty bridge at Landacre on Exmoor. Always a favourite spot for picnicking and for spotting Exmoor ponies.
The riverside picnic-area is a short stroll from the cottage.

Nice location very peaceful

A lovely cottage in a perfect location for country walks right in the heart of Exmoor. Withypool village has a great pub, tea room and a very good local shop, and there are beautiful walks on the River Barle within 5 minutes of the cottage. We've now stayed here 3 times but sadly the property itself is now looking a bit tired and unloved and could do with some money being spent on some of the essentials - kitchenware refresh, newer and more comfortable furnishings, some general de-cluttering as well as needing a good clean and a lick of paint. ...

Excellent location. Good pubs within a 15 drive. The Royal Oak is 2 minute walk away and served excellent food. Great village shop. Fans needed for the bedrooms as they were very hot. Less pictures etc of Fox Hunting or preferably none at all. In general the cottage was kitted out well , with comfortable beds . There was plenty of hot water. ...
