Square good for coffee stop

This is a fabulous section of road cycling through Exmoor National Park along NCN 3. It's an undulating section which takes you across open moorland, wild landscapes and woodland corridors. The road is lovely and quiet and the views stretch for miles.

Great place to stay and recover. From their webpage https://www.thepoltimoreinnnorthmolton.co.uk: The Poltimore Inn is a full 7 days a week pub, open 11:30am to 2:30pm and 5:30pm to 11pm on Monday to Thursday and all day from 11:30 am to 11pm on Friday, Saturday and Sundays.

South Molton is a market town centred round a market square. It was a major part of the UK's wool trade and markets still thrive twice a week, although no longer just the domain of wool. There are plenty of cafes in South Molton for mid-ride nourishment

This is an amazing ridge (called ridge RD funilly enough) which, on good days, you can see all the way to Dartmoor (BIG spikyish ridge to SW), Rackenford & Knowstone moor (S on next ridge over) and what I think may be the Blackdowns (Bigish ridge to the SE). There are usually ponies, sheep and cows, the latter of which sit in the road. There are also sometimes deer. The ridge its self is relatively flat, undulating a bit more to the west, so can be quite nice to ride. Just be aware since most ways up to the ridge are horrible hills!

St Peter’s is a pretty church in the village of Knowstone. The south doorway of the church is believed to date to Norman times, however the surviving fabric appears to date to the 15th century.

Stunning views over Exmoor: sheep grazing in long grass and golden moors backdropped against undulating hills. On clear days, you can see as far as Dartmoor. This stretch can be windy, so you may want to check a weather app before setting off – headwind here is tough!

Look across to Dartmoor on a clear day. Tough going if there's a prevailing headwind!
