Exmoor National Park was designated Europe’s first International Dark Sky Reserve in Autumn 2011 by the Dark Sky Association. Having lived here a while now, one can see why; the low levels of light pollution mean that all that is beautiful about our night skies is just a step away outside our door.
Apart from walking, our area is excellent for cycling, golfing, fishing, horse riding and shooting. There are two local hunts, Devon and Somerset Staghounds and the Exmoor Foxhounds, should you wish to partake or watch their ‘meets,’ which can be found online. There is also a Shoot based in the village.
From Challacombe by car you can easily get to the north and east coastlines of North Devon, the rest of Devon and Cornwall and Dartmoor, but of course our beloved Exmoor is also right there for you to explore. Some of our favourite places in and around Exmoor include:
Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway
Dunster Castle and Dunster
Watersmeet House and walks nearby
And don’t forget the likes of:
There are a variety of leaflets about local and not so local attractions in the front room and we are happy to advise if we can.
