Riding over Exmoor

Reviewed By belaccqua - Bracknell, United Kingdom

Visited Brendan Manor as a group of four. We went on the pub ride which was an excellent day out. Charlie and Lara came out with us and made sure we had a great time with plenty of cantering, seeing beautiful scenery and even came across some Exmoor ponies. They were also lovely to talk to. Can’t wait to return!

Lyn Valley Art and Crafts

It is a cooperative sales point for 50-60 local North Devon crafts people. We spent quite a bit of time there and would thoroughly recommend.

Reviewed By HighcliffExmoor - Lynton, United Kingdom

This place a a real treat if you love buying locally made arts, crafts, jams, jewellery and lots more. There is quite literally something for everyone and it’s all made in Exmoor or North Devon. Another great place to shop when visiting Lynton & Lynmouth.
