Exmoor National Park is one of the UK’s most magical and unspoilt destinations – a place where wild moorland, dramatic coastline, and ancient woodland meet to create a landscape full of adventure, heritage, and natural beauty. As the least visited national park in the UK, it offers peace, space, and a true sense of escape.
Explore iconic spots like the Valley of Rocks, where goats perch on towering cliffs, or walk across the medieval clapper bridge at Tarr Steps in the heart of the moor. Wander through Watersmeet, a stunning river gorge near Lynmouth, or take a ride on the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway – the world’s steepest water-powered funicular. Don’t miss National Trust’s Dunster Castle, a romantic hilltop stronghold overlooking the historic village of Dunster, full of medieval charm. Keep your eyes peeled for Exmoor ponies, red deer, rare butterflies, and buzzards soaring over the heather-clad hills.
Whether you’re walking a stretch of the South West Coast Path or retracing the footsteps of The Salt Path, Exmoor is perfect for walking holidays, dog-friendly breaks, and romantic rural retreats. Stargazers will love the park’s International Dark Sky Reserve status, with some cottages offering dedicated Dark Sky stargazing accommodation.
