    “A well equipped holiday property with everything you need for your comfort, lovely outdoor space over-looking the river, with a covered porch area so you can still sit outside even when the weather isn't playing.”

    ball. Close to the pubs and shops and walks from the doorstep. Lovely seeing the kingfishers, the window seat in the upstairs bedroom gives you the best view of these rarely seen birds!

    So glad you enjoyed yourself. We appreciate that you had a good time. Dulverton is a totally unspoilt town with everything you could wish. The riverside location is a lovely spot to chill out. Many thanks for your kind comments. Property Owner

About the location

DULVERTON

Minehead 17 miles.

Dulverton is the southern gateway to the Exmoor National Park, a small town standing between the rivers Barle and Exe, which meet further down the valley. Dulverton has some quaint narrow streets weaving between fine Victorian buildings and a three arched bridge crossing the river leading to riverside walks. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and pubs in Dulverton and in the square is the Exmoor National Park visitor centre and art gallery, offering plenty of inspiration for exploring the vast expanse of the moor on foot, on horseback or from behind the wheel. Why not try an off road safari around Exmoor to see red deer, wild ponies and rare birds? Exmoor has been designated as a Dark Sky Reserve, where the light pollution is low and plenty of stargazing can be done. Near to Dulverton is the majestic lake at Wimblewall Country Park, the first Dark Skies Discovery Centre on Exmoor. Wimblewall is also a premier trout fishing location, and provides tuition in numerous water sports, including sailing, windsurfing and canoeing. Further afield the North Somerset coastline has sandy beaches at Minehead, picturesque harbours and plenty of wild walking around Porlock Weir. A fabulous holiday destination for all those enjoying outdoor activities, dramatic landscapes and wildlife.

Please note this property does not take 2 day breaks.
