Situated along the coastline of North Devon and Somerset, with some of the most stunning scenery in the country, Exmoor National Park continues to delight visitors year after year.

The Beauty and Diversity of Exmoor
Ancient wooded valleys with magical waterfalls, a dramatic coastline with secluded beaches and miles and miles of wild open moorland.
Walks to suit all abilities from gentle strolls through the beautifully presented villages of Exmoor to the challenges of the Coleridge and Two Moors way.

For those wishing to take on new challenges why not try your hand at watersports on Wimbleball Lake, or try riding through the glorious Exmoor scenery. Alternatively you can relax and enjoy the view from our Exmoor bed and breakfast  across to Withypool common and the Barle valley.

Whether its peace and quiet or action and exercise you are looking for, Newland House b and b offers the ideal base from which to enjoy your break.
