Description
Yenworthy Cottage is a recently (2016) refurbished and re-furnished property that forms part of Yenworthy Farm, spectacularly set on the northern slopes of Exmoor National Park near the coast. Ideal for large groups of families and friends, this ‘Doone Country’ farm (which actually appears in the novel itself) once had its own mill, and the old water wheel is still visible today. It is located just a few hundred yards from the coastline, providing fantastic views of the Bristol Channel and offering direct access to one of the most scenic parts of the South West Coast Path, as well as to a secluded rocky beach via a rugged pathway.
Yenworthy is truly a walker’s paradise, and in addition to the incredible walking opportunities presented by the Coastal Path and found all across Exmoor National Park, 13 miles of footpaths can be explored just on the farm itself. The immediate area even boasts its own historic monument—an old Roman Fort at Old Burrow—and is a haven for wildlife, with four Sites of Special Scientific Interest, rare species of butterflies and trees, large areas of heather moorland, as well as thoroughly impressive cliff geology.
