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.

Excellent location Beautifully furnished Lovely to be able to accommodate two well behaved dogs. Master bedroom /bathroom fabulous but watch out as can bang head on low ceilings! Lovely cottage but beware second double bedroom is much too small for 2 adults to share with only one small wardrobe and very little draw space because there's not enough room!! No wardrobe space in twin bedded room. ...

Thanks for your comments, and we were glad to see that you enjoyed your stay. Oliver's Cottage is a period cottage and as with many properties of this era, the rooms can be smaller than in modern houses. The second double bedroom is the smaller of the bedrooms, but we feel that the Owners have made the best use of the space available without compromising the charm and traditional character.

More information could have been given regarding the cooking facilities - for instance we had no idea that the microwave was also an oven until we looked really closely! Also clearer instructions for the Rayburn please.
