Withypool is a quiet village in the Barle valley with a distinct upland character. Along the banks of the River Barle grow the willow trees that give Withypool its name. The village is home to a characteristic six-arch stone bridge, which was built roughly 100 years ago to replace an old packhorse bridge up river.

Great centre for bike rides on and off road. Loads of trails and plenty of challenging hills . Good pub just be careful not to over order !

Hiking

A tiny, delightful Exmoor village that still looks very original.
There's the bridge, a shop/post office/museum, a tea room and a really good pub. Parking spaces are almost non-existent. So it's better to hike here than start from here!
