Please check local regulations for: Exmoor National Park
Location: Withypool and Hawkridge, West Somerset District, Somerset, South West England, England, United Kingdom
While odd to say out loud, this ridgeline offers tremendous views of the surrounding fields and valleys. It's climbing up from the Barle and this top stretch is part of the Exe Valley Way. At the western end of the ridge is Hawkridge itself, a lovely old village with excellent views.

This beautiful landscape is shared with cattle and calves, sheep, and lambs every summer, whilst the year-round inhabitants include the unique Exmoor pony, the large red deer, the brown hare, buzzards and kestrels
This country is for those who love walking, riding, cycling amongst hills and visiting tiny villages, churches, and the breath-taking cliffs along one of the most striking coasts in the U.K
