Lynton is a small town on the Exmoor coast in Devon, England standing on top of the cliffs above the picturesque harbour village of Lynmouth, to which it is connected by the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway. Lynton was once the terminus for the narrow-gauge Lynton & Barnstaple Railway, which served both towns.

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.

Beautiful smell when you enter the door. John was busily trying to make more candles to stock up his shelfs. I bough gifts for family and friends. The candles are amazing.

Lyn & Exmoor Museum

An 18th-century cottage that houses a collection of agricultural and domestic tools.

Reviewed By tiggerb2016 - Hounslow, United Kingdom

The Lyn and Exmoor Museum is a quaint museum in the town's oldest surviving domestic dwelling, a whitewashed stone cottage – with its own ghost! There are seven rooms, including a traditional kitchen, and it is crammed with models, photos, farm implements, toys, fossils, maritime and railway memorabilia, information about the Lynmouth Flood and so much more. It is only open from Easter to the end of October on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, but it is well worth a visit.
