Unlike many other of the country's beauty spots and national parks, Exmoor remains unspoilt and underdeveloped. The area teems with wildlife and West Withy provides an ideal base from which to explore its moors and woodlands, its famous herds of red deer and wild Exmoor ponies.

Bird life is abundant with many increasingly rare and unusual species.

The coastline of West Somerset and North Devon with its dramatic cliffs are within easy reach and offer excellent walks, quiet coves, some superb beaches and spectacular views.
