Julian and Polly love living at Westerclose House and extend a warm invitation to you to come and share the special peace and beauty of Exmoor. We are experienced hosts and will do all we can to help you get the most out of your stay.
Exmoor is a unique landscape of moorland wildness, with rivers & streams flowing down steep wooded valleys. There are beautiful beaches along the spectacular North Devon coastline which is just a short drive from Withypool. Exmoor offers something for everyone, whether you are looking for a quiet break away from the hustle and bustle of current day living, or an active break for you and your family. For an active holiday there are miles of wonderful walks or cycle rides, or horse riding across the myriad of bridleways over the moor. Fishermen can fish beautiful fast flowing rivers or still waters or take a boat sea fishing from various coastal ports. We can advise on local walks, local riding stables and fishing on the River Exe (trout & salmon) or local still water reservoirs (trout or coarse fishing). Or just unwind by visiting one of the fabulous open gardens or National Trust houses within a short drive of Pennycombe Cottage.
